A multi-section locking baton comprising:
- a series of lockable telescoping tubes that lock when the baton is extended, one of said telescoping tubes being a handle of the baton;
- a manually actuatable release rod extending axially through the telescoping tubes for unlocking the tubes;
- an end cap that is connected with the handle and that closes the outer end of the handle;
