The Best Gun For Home Defense

By Mary R. Joyce


So you want to carry and own self defence weapons that you could use without fear, or concern for your attackers safety. You also want these tools to be concealable, and have them stored at home, in your car and on your person.Within this special article I will review the different types of self defence weapons that you can use, and the implications of laws if you use them. Knife or edged weapon. This weapon is typically designed for people who could plunge a blade into a person attacking them, without freezing up in fear or shock over the action of stabbing someone. Legally this is assault with a deadly weapon and can get you some jail time, not to mention you can end up killing your attacker.

Now Is The Time To Plan Home Defense,It takes very little planning now to enact some steps that can literally save your life if/when riots and looting strike your area. Contrary to popular opinion, you don't necessarily needs guns to protect yourself, your home and your loved ones from rioters or looters. Not if you are smart. The key is to "harden your house" to make is a less attractive target and also a more difficult place to loot. You won't have to brandish a firearm if looters never choose your house. The time to take these steps is now, when there is no emergency.

I continued a Shotgun is a versatile little gun and has been around in one form or another since guns were invented and since we still use them today it speaks volumes for their consistency. They can fire dangerous loads sure, but they can also shoot out bean bags or simply blanks. The point I was trying to make was nearly all men especially the bad guys know what a Shotgun is and the sight of the weapon can make a big mean nasty man turn to mush and when you charge the gun or put a bullet in the chamber to shoot it. The Shotgun has a distinct sound kind of a loud click slam whack sound. When you hear it you know it and the sound will fill a man with fear.

Safety Is Beautiful,Once your front door is secured, both by looking secure with a steel outer door, and by being very secure with a Door Club, turn your attention to your front windows. It is NOT necessary to install burglar bars, which most people find less than attractive. A great way to keep people from coming in your windows is by planting rose bushes! Anyone who has picked roses knows from painful experience that a bush full of sharp thorns is NOT an obstacle that you will take lightly. Planting rose bushes is a very modest investment - they can be purchased for under ten dollars each and they grow and grow. Anyone starting to go through your roses to get to your window will soon stop.

When the Police arrive put the weapon down before answering the door. Today she is comfortable keeping the shotgun loaded with bird shot high up in the closet on hooks the kids don't even know it's up there. For added security she had me install a simple gun lock that can be easily removed. She feels safe and frankly so do I, she evens looks forward to going to the range with me. Wonder if I can talk her into shooting my magnum.Naw! Home security companies advertise on TV day and night. You see their ads all the time. They are trying to get your business of course. The reason is because home burglary and home invasions are two of the fastest-growing crimes in the country.A home invasion is a version of a home burglary. Home burglary is usually done by one person who picks a house that he knows the occupants are gone. A home invasion is usually done by two or more people specifically done when they know the occupants are there.So in that sense it's a much more terrifying crime and it usually ends in some kind of violence, whereas in a burglary the bad guy is in and out hopefully without even anyone knowing about it.

In another instance, I had a gentleman who's primary concern was dogs. He and his wife walked in the early mornings and lately he had noticed some stray dogs around. I showed him a canine repellant spray and a stun baton. He got one of each.Like anything, self defense has a lot to do with your personal comfort zone. You may be empowered with a flashlight stun gun on your belt holster.But if the sound of a stun gun sparking startles you and causes you to jump back rather than towards your assailant, then it would be rendered ineffective.

In an economy with a nearly 20% unemployment (Even the NY Times says take the "official numbers" and double them) the fact is that the uneducated, the unfeeling, the psychopathic by nature or just the desperate turn to crime to make ends (of their crack pipe) meet and you are the most likely target. Why? Because you are in some database that says you are not legally able to buy a weapon to defend your family, your children, your property or yourself. Or you are on some social site stating clearly and calmly that no way on earth will you allow a firearm in your home.

Alarms may also be used as women's self defense weapons. When an attacker hears a loud, shrill noise, he is more likely to back away and leave the scene. Personal alarms are also often disguised. Sometimes they take the shape of flashlights, and may also contain pepper sprays. Other personal alarms are small and sleek, but have a flashlight included in their design for women's self defense. There are also personal alarms that are shaped like key chains or can be attached to key chains.In many cases, the best self defense items women can use are stun guns. There is a large variety to choose. Many of the self defense products are small and easily disguised. One type of stun guns used for women's self defense is made in the shape of cell phones. They carry charges of as high as 950,000 volts. The best of these stun guns have disabling pins so that they will be useless to the attacker if he grabs it away from the woman.

Dummy security cameras or fake security cameras are a great way to improve your home defense for very little money. They're very real looking with blinking red lights, cabling and housing for the camera. Not many people can tell the real thing from the fake.Another tip that he said made him choose another house was a house that was lit up. Great ways to do that is to use motion activated spotlights on the outside and lights that are on timers on the inside. Light-sensitive timers will turn lights off in daylight and turn them on in darkness. They are great home defense tools for homeowners who work at night, for example.

Since women often know their attackers, it is not unreasonable to consider that there might be times that women's self defense products might be needed at home. While there are many uses for hidden spy cameras, women's self defense is certainly one of them. For example, if a stalker is entering a woman's home, the hidden spy camera can record the activity when she is gone. There are cameras that will record only when there are changes in the room, or others that will record at all times through a home computer.Women's self defense is much more reliable if self defense weapons are available. Getting the best ones depends on knowing the market and choosing wisely. It is important for women to know their own habits and preferences before buying women's self defense products.
