The device, which can hit people up to 35 feet away, weighs less than two pounds and is only seven inches tall, but is being billed as the most powerful Taser yet.
The new Taser stun gun can also can target the same person more than once and each barb can deliver a separate shock, according to manufacturers.
The gun was unveiled yesterday in front of hundreds of police at Taser Internationa's annual conference.
American police, who will use the device from next month, said it would allow for greater accountability because it had sensors that measured each discharge.
Data can also be downloaded and analysed from the device.
Taser International CEO Rick Smith said the gun would become the new standard for police officers who want greater tactical abilities.
Older Taser stun guns which are used by 14,200 law enforcement agencies throughout the United States, have to be reloaded after one shot.
Police say this can be cause problems if a target is missed a target or if an officer has more than one suspect to subdue.
