Helping Other Individuals When Facing Grave Danger

By Myels A Walker


Fred's words echoed inside my head: You can't discount stun guns as personal defense tools even though you think you will not ever have a need for one. Well, I was pretty sure this would serve me no purpose right up until that evening as soon as I witnessed how two guys beat a female up who refused to hand her money over.

I stood frozen in place while watching everything occur. Stun weapons are non-lethal. If I had one right at that moment, then one of those 2 bad guys would be in pain from the electric shock, enough to become disoriented and lose his own sense of balance. However incapacitation is temporary, several minutes at most. And there will be no permanent harm.

Perhaps, I might have no need to safeguard myself however I may have saved somebody else from harm if I toted one. What did Fred say? A stun gun buys time to get away. And it simply takes 1 to 5 seconds of contact on the neck, shoulder, belly or groin to truly zap the criminal and then make a run for it.

Even a low voltage stun weapon with a milder stunning effect would have dealt with those 2 thugs immediately given just enough contact on the appropriate spot.

A 100,000-volt straight Stun Master stun device would still have been a lifesaver in case I had one to utilize that night. A one-second application could have meant 1 less bruise on the girl since the pain was very likely to stop the person.

Low voltage may suggest less chance of damage to the opponent however the effect provides reprieve to the prey. At 4.5 inches, the straight stun equipment features a wrist strap so it wouldn't just be knocked out of your own hand.

It is a tiny stun gun, which makes it handy to lug. And any kind of weapon to safeguard oneself or someone else with is much better than none.

Fred is right. I should not discount stun gadgets when it comes to defending myself or others outdoors.
