Choosing self defense weapons is not an easy task. With so many different types of self defense weapons on the market today how do you know what or what not to buy?
Pepper sprays are a great option and will work immediately on your attacker without having to have contact with your would-be attacker. Some pepper sprays will also give you a safe distance of up to 25 feet away!
You must be cautious with pepper sprays and what direction the wind is blowing as it can very well come right back into your face.
Stun guns on the other hand do require you to have contact with your attacker as you will need to stun your assailant to bring him down. With stun guns, the higher the voltage the less contact time you will need to take your attacker. While shopping for stun guns keep this in mind.
TASER allows up to 15 feet of distance between you and your attacker. But at these lengths how do you really know you are potentially going to be attacked or not? TASER is a wonderful product and out of all is also the most expensive. You will also need to buy replacement cartridges, which I recommend keeping an extra one on hand at all times.
Keeping in close touch with your surroundings will help you in determining if a person is a potential attacker or just someone walking on by. This is very important no matter which self defense weapons you choose to purchase.
It's about paying attention, setting yourself up for the potential attack and being in ready mode in the event it turns into an altercation.
All these self defense weapons will help protect you. Which one you should choose really depends on how you feel about the different types of self defense weapons, how you would like to carry it and whether or not you don't mind having close contact in order to take the person down.
In the end it's all about you protecting you. It's most likely that if you should become a victim there might not be anyone around to help you. Get the protection you need today.
