Self Defense-Is There a Stun Gun in Your Future?

Author: Jack Krohn

Everyone, man, woman, young, old, rich poor, Christian, Muslim, Jew all need self defense to protect themselves. Crime is an equal opportunity destroyer of lives-makes no difference who you are. Anybody can become a target of theft, murder, burglary, rape or assault so it is for our self interest to stay prepared to handle any unwanted event in our life.

These days you can find a wide variety of self defense and personal safety products and services available in the market. A stun gun is one of these. A stun gun is an effective non lethal self defense device that temporarily disables a person with electric shock by putting out a high voltage and low amperage shock. The high voltage which ranges form 80,000 to 975,000 is enough to go thru the thickest of clothing, but at just 3 milliamps it will not do any long term damage to the body. So it is more for self defense than to cause injury.

HOW THEY WORK

Stun guns temporarily incapacitate targets by sending a high voltage but low amperage charge of electricity to the nervous system. This causes a disruption in the body's neurological impulses that control muscle movement overwhelming the neuromuscular system causing the victim to lose balance and become confused. It also causes temporary partial paralysis and depletes the body's system of blood sugar (energy) making the body too weak to move for approximately 5-10 minutes

Stun guns have an effectiveness rating of 86%.

If you are looking for self-defense, travel security or personal security, a stun gun can be one of your best choices available. They are effective, affordable, easy to carry and use-when are you getting one?
