Both law enforcement and civilians have been searching for methods to defend themselves. Most of the means of self defense have been lethal weapons like knives or guns. Thankfully though, that last century yielded a great invention called the Tazer. Many lives have been saved thanks to this product.
A Tazer gun is an electroshock device that is used by civilians and police departments alike. It shoots out two 15 foot wires with two metal prongs attached at the ends and delivers anywhere from 5 second to 30 second pulses depending on the model. This completely incapacitates the target of the shock for a short period of time. It also enables the law enforcement officer to cuff the assailant, or it gives time for the civilian to escape the reaches of their assailant. If the Tazer user doesn’t have an air cartridge, they can still use the tip of the Tazer like a stun gun.
The Tazer has proven itself time and time again in law enforcement. It has stopped people with guns, baseball bat, and has even helped at times when hand-to-hand combat has gotten way out of control. Usually, you hear a lot about Tazer use in law enforcement but rarely is there any news about its use by civilians. Funny, since Tazer originally just sold its product to civilians.
If you are tired of feeling scared and vulnerable, then you really should consider a Tazer gun. Not only can you shoot the attacker from 15 feet away, if he gets too close, you can simply touch him with it. A Tazer requires little maintenance, unlike a gun, and it is extremely unlikely that you will kill someone with it. That is the greatest downfall of a handgun. Killing another human being is no light responsibility and killing someone, even in self defense or another justified means, can be extremely traumatic.
Make sure you check with your local law enforcement before buying a Tazer device. Some places have made it illegal for civilians to buy or carry them. If it is legal in your area and you buy a Tazer gun, then remember to practice with it and carry it with you as often as you can. Defending yourself is very important and if you’re properly prepared, then you’ll be less likely to become a victim.
