ESP Telescopic Hardened Baton 16" Easy Lock with Pouch - Black

ESP Easy Lock Telescopic Baton

Do you need a reliable telescopic baton for defense that can withstand the toughest conditions and close easily by pressing a button? Looking for a compact and concealable tool that can be extended instantly during the draw? Do you want a baton used by armed forces that won’t bend, slip, or be pulled from your hand? The ESP Easy Lock Telescopic Baton with hardened steel tubes is designed for police, security professionals, and demanding civilian users. With its non-slip handle, robust construction, and rotating holster, it provides maximum security during carry and use. Certified under German standards for telescopic batons, it is a trusted professional choice. Compact for everyday carry, yet opens to full length with a single swing. The grip’s rough “H” pattern texture reduces the risk of losing control. The main highlight is the Easy Lock system – a push button that releases the lock and allows smooth closing without striking against hard surfaces. The mechanism was tested over 6000 cycles, in mud, repeated impacts, and 2 m drops on concrete without failure.

Opening and Closing with Easy Lock System

• Opening:
  
  a) Standard swing (vertical, diagonal, upward) until the tubes lock together.
  b) Pulling from the tip.
  c) Automatic opening using the supplied BHT-55 holster, where the baton extends automatically when drawn (the mechanism can be removed from the holster).
  
  
• Closing:
  Press the button on the handle end, then manually push the baton closed.

Warnings

• Never close the baton by striking its tip without pressing the release button (as with Friction Lock models). This will damage the locks.
• Due to the Easy Lock button on the handle, accessories cannot be mounted (except inspection mirrors).
