subject: Pretender Stun Gun-self Defense On Steroids [print this page] Stun guns are a member of self defense products family. They provide a nonlethal alternative to deadly force when it comes to personal self defense. Others self defense products you've heard of our pepper sprays, personal alarms, tasers and batons.
Almost all self defense products have been used successfully by either military and or law enforcement agencies for decades. Tasers for example are used by over 11,000 domestic law enforcement agencies and in at least seven other countries.
Stun guns got their start back in their 1930's when a farmer was looking for a way to move his cattle more quickly. He invented a cattle prod and the rest as they say is history. Stun guns today are second only to pepper sprays, in terms of popularity for self-defense.
They are small hand held devices with prongs on one end that conduct an electrical current. When the stun tool is applied to an assailant for 3 to 5 seconds it causes his body to overwork depleting it of all blood sugars so he has nothing left in the tank so to speak. All he can do is curl up in a ball.
They interrupt the neurological impulses that control your voluntary muscle movement overwhelming it causing loss of balance. The charge causes no long lasting damage.
When it comes to choosing a stun gun you want on that is not too expensive, small, easy to carry and conceal and one that is very powerful. The pretender stun gun is all of that. It is 4 inches by 2 inches by one inch making it easy to conceal and carry. It has 4.5 million volts and two levels of safety built in.
A very bright 12 LED flashlight is included too with a leatherette holster and a lifetime warranty. The best part is the power-4.5 million volts-more than any other stun gun in the world. Enough to flatten any bad guy. Self defense on steroids. It is the perfect tool for self defense for women.
When are you getting one?
I always advise that if you feel threatened by an assailant point a charging stun gun at him and hold it up for the bad guys to see the flying current and hear the sounds. A 'back off' warning may scare him away when he sees what you have. From a distance the crackling noise alone and blue sparks that stun guns give off when activated may be enough to keep attackers at bay.
If you think crime only happens to the 'other guy', let me assure you the other guy is thinking the same thing. And to him you are the 'other guy'
Stun guns and pepper sprays are not legal in all jurisdictions. Check with your local sheriffs department first before buying one.
