ASP "recall"

For thos who don't know this already ASP has ended their current line to upgrade their cuffs to a pick resistant version:

The new lockset will be ready sometime in late March of 2005. Officers can send in the handcuffs to ASP for a free upgrade to a pick resistant lock set. The upgraded lock sets can be distinguished from the current lock sets by looking at the color of the double lock push pin. The current "pickable" version lockset has a red double lock pushpin. The upgraded pick resistant sets will have a yellow double lock pushpin.

Returns for free upgrade locks on ASP handcuffs may be sent to:

I emailed copsplus and this is their reply:
"Hello,
Unfortunately, due to a recall, all ASP handcuffs are on backorder until
they can be redesigned by the manufacturer.

Hello,

www.Cuffsland.com still have a few of the first version ASP, which could be of interest for the collectors here.

BTW: Cuffsland is now also offering the complete range of Hagge's "Deutsche Polizei" handcuffs including the black, the training and the special swivel version.

I am a volunteer for the Contra Costa County Sheriff's office, both of my old ASP cuffs were stolen out of my patrol bag when I was on my break during our county fair. Any ways I cant return them to be redesigned so I was wondering were I should buy them, I have been searching all over the internet and local Police equipment stores but I have failed in finding them. If you have any information regarding this matter please e-mail me at, cocoso_volunteer@yahoo.com

Thanks,
