Stun Guns Are Reliable

Until put in the situation, no one can know how they will respond to a threat to their personal safety. 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 you will be able stop the attack.

Stun guns are also reliable because of their simplicity. A cheap stun gun sends a voltage of electricity through the attacker’s body that impedes their muscles’ function. 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, stun guns are also one of the safest self-defense tools. All models come with safety features to make certain that the tool will not be activated accidentally. The tools are also safe for the attacker because their objective is to give you time to reach safety rather than create permanent damage.

Although very powerful, stun guns deliver a current that is strong enough to immobilize the attacker for a long period of time without leaving permanent damage. A stun gun shock will not harm the heart or other organs, and does not create any other lasting effects.

So This is What Happened Next

This turned out not to be such a wise move on our part. Within about a year some tools were stolen out of our garage, my credit card was stolen out of my purse, my husband’s wallet was stolen at a hotel when he was on a business trip and our baby stroller had been stolen in a public place. We were shaken up good, we lived in a little town with a low crime rate and awesome neighborhoods, just North of San Francisco, and we never expected anything to be stolen. This opened our eye to the possibilities of other dangers that we were oblivious to. Needless to say, America might not be up there with all the high crime, high unemployment countries in the world, but it is also not a haven of crimeless bliss.

To be totally relaxed and not take care of your family’s security would be living in denial. We started looking into security products for our family, obviously not something as radical as we would use in South Africa, but things such as a Stun Gun and some Pepper Spray for me when I drive woman-alone at night and an inexpensive Personal alarm to make us aware of some strange movements in and around our house at night. These and other items turned out to be worth every penny when it came to peace of mind. I’m a Christian and I believe I have angels that protect me and my family, but I also believe we have been given sound minds and it would be irresponsible not to use them.

Please don’t learn the hard way as we had to, take my word for it, it is always better to be sure than sorry and when it comes to your family, you can never be too sure.
