Things To Consider Just Before Carrying A Weapon For Defense

By Justain C Savage


Personal safety is something which I never, ever take casually. Crime is rising and I can only benefit from carrying a self-defense weapon. At first, I was scared of the idea but my sibling assured me of a way to remedy that.

His recommendation came in the form of a Taser. As I was informed, it is a non-lethal weapon which has a higher effectiveness rate than a 9-mm. handgun, but then is it legal to carry a Taser stun gun in my place of residence?

In the state of California where I reside, citizens are allowed to have Tasers except in particular areas including government buildings and also airports. It was great that I looked up Taser laws because I plan on taking this gadget in my travels. Specific states as well as cities completely prohibit its use.

I find a Taser to be an extremely good substitute for a gun or a knife. My brother got me a Taser C2 Gold Kit that contained 2 live cartridges, 1 cartridge for training, a holster and also a target for practice.

What gives a Taser an awesome advantage is that it can be utilized from a safe range while also allowing close contact use whenever needed. The two probes that shoot out from it could hit a target from approximately 15 feet away. Alternatively, a Taser can be utilized just like a stun gun to thwart an assailant in close proximity.

It makes me feel much more safe knowing that a Taser can momentarily debilitate any person regardless of his level of pain tolerance. This is because of its utilization of electro-muscular disruption (EMD) technology, which disables the sensory and motor functions of the nervous system.

In spite of its incredible stopping power, a Taser is a non-lethal defense weapon which doesn't bring about any permanent effects. It is simply meant to disable an opponent quickly to give victims enough time to get away.

Right now, where else is it legal to bring a Taser for personal defense? How about where you reside? It pays to learn these things before thinking about getting a self-defense weapon to avoid legal problems.
