subject: Best Self Defense Products For Women-the Top Three [print this page] There are many choices for women when it comes to choosing self defense products. There are literally thousands to choose from so many that it can be a little confusing. Many manufacturers have even taken to designing products especially for women. Why so much emphasis on women? Well statistics show that women are the targets of 90% of all attacks-everything from domestic violence to street assaults, from rape to verbal abuse.
As you may know, self defense products are designed to give you time to get away from the dangerous situation and seek help. They all do that by temporarily incapacitating an attacker were anywhere from 5 to 20 minutes. The attackers then unable to pursue you any further giving you time to get away.
Well-respected manufacturers like Taser international, Mace brand and stun master to mention a few have added products designed to appeal to women. Some examples are:
1.Stun guns; the best example is the pretender stun gun that looks exactly like camera cell phone but is really a 4.5 million volt stun weapon that comes in pink. This great stun gun when applied to an assailant causes his body to work superfast dust depleting it of all blood sugars needed for energy. All he can do them is curl up in a ball and whimper.
2.Pepper sprays; a quick shot of OC spray in the face of an attacker can cause as much as 20 minutes of incapacitation. The eyes swell and tear-up so much that they can actually close. Of course no long lasting damage is done. One of the most popular pepper sprays is the Mace brand pepper gun that has the longest range of any pepper spray on the market at 25 feet.
3.Taser; the C-2 Taser was designed specifically with women in mind. It is much smaller than normal tasers but does exactly the same thing shooting out two electrified darts up to 15 feet away. The C-2 like other tasers as the nearly 100% takeout rate. Maybe that's why over 11,000 police agencies all over the country it use them.
If you think crime can only happen to the other guy you are wrong. The "other guy" is thinking the same thing and to him you are that "other guy". There is a reason why they call it self defense. You have to protect yourself, your family, your home and business!!
Chances are if you are reading this that crime has touched your life in some way or you consider yourself at risk. Take the next step and do something to protect yourself! Your life and safety is worth far more than the cost of a stun gun.
If you are in the market for a self defense product look for quality, effectiveness, and a biggie-LEGALITY. Stun guns are not legal in some states. Pepper sprays have restrictions in some jurisdictions. Check with your local police department first before you get one.
