[UA] Rules question: weapons

Due to my players being weird, I've got one PC using a bow and arrows
and one PC carrying a tazer.  Neither of these weapons seems to be
covered in the UA rules.  I've been treating the arrows as "Hand to
Hand" weapons, +3 for being sharp and +3 for "moving really fast"
(which is sort of equivalent to "heavy").  For the tazer, I'm stumped. 
As far as I know, being hit with a tazer pretty much knocks you out,
every time.  The last time it came up I made a Body roll for the
target, figuring that a matched success under the wielder's tazer
skill would mean she managed to pull away before getting a full
"jolt."  

Does anybody have a better idea for either of these?  Especially the
tazer.  It's been a fairly low-combat game so far, but I think there
might be a big old three-way Mexican standoff coming, and those never
end well.
