Pepper spray and tasers are illegal in Meadowlark's world, with the former being obsolete. Since there are few petty thefts because of everything being digitized, there is less of a risk of these things being needed. That said: tasers of any level are available on the black market. Heine would need to be careful about where he buys it because some of the fronts for the markets are less secure than others, and if he carries the taser all the time, he could be arrested for carrying a weapon.
So: tasers are a go on the black market, pepper spray isn't. Whether he finds a "better" black market front is up to you - you can always have it come up in a later plot if you wish!
