Protecting Yourself with a Stun Gun
 by: Barry L Jenkins


Every responsible person should consider ways to ensure their personal safety. As protection becomes a growing concern, the variety of self defense tools and methods available is on the rise. Although any effort to protect yourself is commendable, some options are more effective than others. Stun guns are an easy to use, reliable, and safe tool of self defense.

Until put in the situation, no one can know how they will respond to a threat to their personal safety. Simplicity of use will guarantee that you are able to protect yourself no matter your emotional state or circumstances. A stun gun requires minimal pressure on the trigger and only a short period of contact with the attacker. This ensures that regardless of the situation, if you are injured, confused, or otherwise incapacitated, you will be able stop the attack. In addition, because stun guns are easy to use and require no personal strength they are effective regardless of the user’s age or personal level of strength.

Unlike other methods of self defense, a stun gun does not leave its user guessing if it will work. The simplicity of its concept ensures reliability each and every time it is put into use. A stun gun sends a voltage of electricity through the attacker’s body that impedes their muscles’ function. This renders them immobile and affords the victim time to get to safety. This tool will have the desired effect regardless of the attacker’s size or the body part that it comes in contact with.

In addition to ease of use and reliability, an added benefit of a stun gun is that it is ultimately harmless on several levels. First, all models come with safety features to make certain that the tool will not be activated accidentally. Second, the user will never receive a shock themselves even if they are in contact with the attacker through water or physical contact. Finally, stun guns are even safe for the attacker. Although strong enough to immobilize them, the current is not strong enough to leave permanent damage. A stun gun shock will not harm the heart or other organs, and does not create any other lasting effects.

In the realm of stun guns there are is a wide variety of products including cell phone stun guns, mini stun guns, and flashlight stun guns. Regardless of the self defense tool that you choose be sure to obtain it from a reputable dealer. The company that you purchase from should be ethical, informative, and compliant with national laws. It is also important that you educate yourself as to the local laws in your area. Although stun guns are legal in most states, all self defense tools have restrictions and limitations of use that you may need to be aware of.
