I figured that given the upcoming change to the electric weapon law and my own desire to purchase a stun gun, it might be a good idea to write up a generic letter for online retailers notifying them of the change. Anyone who's ever went to purchase a taser/stun gun online has seen the banned states list. Given that they likely don't keep up on all the news from every state in the union I drafted a letter for their reference.
Let me know what you guys think of it. If you like it go ahead and use it - I left it generic so all you have to do is add your name and send it off.

To whom it may concern,
On July 8th, 2011, Wisconsin governor Scott Walker signed into law 2011 Wisconsin Act 35. This act is commonly known as the act making concealed carry legal with a permit in the state of Wisconsin. A part of the new law pertains to possession of electric weapons (tasers, stun guns, etc). Previously it was illegal for any person other than law enforcement, corrections officers, and military personnel acting in the line of duty to possess an electric weapon. I am writing to inform you that this law has been changed.
Effective November 1, 2011, civilian personnel will now be able to possess electric weapons provided that the individual is either a concealed carry licensee, an out-of-state licensee, or that the individual who goes armed with an electric weapon is in his or her own dwelling or place of business or on land that he or she owns, leases, or legally occupies (Wis. Stat. § 941.295).
Please view the following documents from the state of Wisconsin concerning this topic.

Given this change I am requesting that on or near November 1, 2011 your website begin allowing the sale of electric weapons to customers in the state of Wisconsin. Thank you for your time and I look forward to your prompt reply on this matter.
Respectfully,
