wife EDC

First off something about a stun gun scares me there's something about that sparking & popping sound it makes.
If a woman (a single woman not a mom protecting her kid) has a knife , baton or mace it would not overly worry me. Most men take more physical punishment/abuse from H2H training, wrestling/ horsing around, football and working out in the gym than an average woman can dish out. (In my opinion).
Back to the original topic his wife rides a bike. She has a flat tire we all ready know she will have her cell phone a stun gun in the other hand could easily keep a stranger out of her personal space while she decides if this stranger is a blessing from god sent to help her or a would be attacker. She does not have to threaten them but only hold the stun gun.
In the home were there is no wind pepper spray would be first choice.
Good luck Benjamin my wife does not care for guns either but I do believe she likes knowing they are there if needed.
Now if I could get her to quit throwing away the sale catalogs from MidwayUSA, Natchez...

Thank you for sharing your views.

Tasers launch probes on wires from 15 to 30 feet depending on the cartridge used, tasers also use muscle incapacitation not pain tolerance like stun guns which are also hand to hand as you have to make physical contact for them to "work" but as such only apply pain compliance which can be fought through with out stopping the attacker. Muscle in MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH harder to fight through its next to impossible but if the barbs dont make good contact then it doesn't work but thats where the best part of a taser comes from if you dont make good enough contact with the barbs and the attacker continues to close in you can use the weapon as a stun gun and push it to there body if at least one of the other barbs makes contact you still get muscle incapacitation. WWW.TASER.COM always has demonstration videos and there are dozens of youtube videos do you research. I just had to learn first hand and that was probably best.

Thanks for sharing. AFA doing my research I did. I got feedbackr and was able to get you to chime in as well. A twofer. Though I never did get saddlebums explanation of his comment and that was what I was looking for, so unless you know he posted his response on Youtube.....

Peper spray is just as likely to cause you problems as bad guy in small enclosed areas.


Taser not a stungun. Tasers can be used as stunguns if nessary. But you lose muscle incapacitation and are relying on pain compliance. And if you didn't know when your juices(adrenilin) are flowing in a fight or altercation it is unlikely you'll feel or react to pain at all.
