Stun Guns FAQ's
Q. Which
is better, a stun gun or a taser ?
A: Both
are excellent self defense devices however we beleive a Taser
is more suited for home defense and a stun gun is better for
everyday walking around defense. Tasers
shoot two darts at a range of about 15 feet however the large
size of the taser is not practical for carrying around on
a regular basis, also most street attacks happen at close
range which does not allow you time to react with the taser
where as the stun
gun is a contact device that is small and compact
and can easily be carried at all times. Since most attacks
do happen at close range , it much more likely that you would
be able to contact the person and drop them with the stun
gun than it would be like ly for you to pull out the taser,
take aim and fire and hope you hit the target. Keep in mind,
you will have fear and adrenaline working against you.
For the
home, you typically have a short period of time availble to
get your taser and prepare to use it.
The best
case scenario would be to own a taser for the home and a stun
gun for your everyday slef defnese needs.
