Assisting Other People If Facing Danger

By Myels A Walker


Fred's sayings echoed within my head: You can't discount stun guns as personal defense devices even if you feel you will not ever have a need for one. Well, I was confident this would serve me no purpose right up until that evening when I saw how 2 men beat a female up that rejected to hand her money over.

I stood frozen in place while seeing everything happen. Stun weapons are non deadly. If I got one right at that moment, then one of those 2 crooks would be in pain because of the electric shock, enough to become disoriented and also lose his own balance. But incapacitation is non permanent, a couple of minutes at most. And there will be no permanent harm.

Perhaps, I might have no need to defend myself however I might have saved somebody else from injury if I brought one. What did Fred say? A stun device buys time to escape. And this simply takes one to five seconds of contact on the neck, shoulder, abdomen or groin to really zap the bad guy and then make a run for it.

Even a low voltage stun device having a gentler stunning effect would have handled those two thugs promptly given just enough contact on the ideal spot.

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

Low voltage may imply less possibility of harm towards the enemy however the effect provides reprieve to the victim. At 4.5 inches, the straight stun gun features a wrist strap so it would not just be bumped out of your own hand.

It is a small stun device, which makes it handy to lug. And any weapon to protect oneself or somebody else with is better than none.

Fred is right. I shouldn't discount stun guns with regards to safeguarding myself or other people outdoors.
