So you want to carry and own self defence weapons that you could use without fear, or concern for your attackers safety. You also want these tools to be concealable, and have them stored at home, in your car and on your person.Within this special article I will review the different types of self defence weapons that you can use, and the implications of laws if you use them. Knife or edged weapon. This weapon is typically designed for people who could plunge a blade into a person attacking them, without freezing up in fear or shock over the action of stabbing someone. Legally this is assault with a deadly weapon and can get you some jail time, not to mention you can end up killing your attacker.
Pepper spray. This weapon flares up the mucous membranes in your nose, mouth and throat. It also causes a burning sensation in your eyes and it hurts to breathe. The effects last 20 minutes. The pepper spray canister is small and concealable and gives you up to 6 feet leverage.Tazers. They come in hand held close combat styles, as well as gun styles that shoot hooked electric charged hooks into your attacker. It will paralyze your assailant in pain but only lasts a few minutes. I would recommend the pepper spray for longer lasting effects.
The first thing to do is to employ passive measures to make your house less of a target. Just as the overwhelming majority of home invasions happen through the front door, your front door communicates a lot to would-be looters. If your outer door is the kind with decorative steel instead of a large pane of glass, it looks much less inviting. So your first step of "house hardening" should be to look at replacing your front door. In addition, the installation of "The Door Club" is a $40 investment that will make your door nearly impossible to kick in, and it will take less than an hour to install. This way, when you are home and the door club is in place, anyone wanting to come in your front door will be stopped, or at the very least delayed greatly, even if they have a battering ram that the police use.
Safety Is Beautiful,Once your front door is secured, both by looking secure with a steel outer door, and by being very secure with a Door Club, turn your attention to your front windows. It is NOT necessary to install burglar bars, which most people find less than attractive. A great way to keep people from coming in your windows is by planting rose bushes! Anyone who has picked roses knows from painful experience that a bush full of sharp thorns is NOT an obstacle that you will take lightly. Planting rose bushes is a very modest investment - they can be purchased for under ten dollars each and they grow and grow. Anyone starting to go through your roses to get to your window will soon stop.
When the Police arrive put the weapon down before answering the door. Today she is comfortable keeping the shotgun loaded with bird shot high up in the closet on hooks the kids don't even know it's up there. For added security she had me install a simple gun lock that can be easily removed. She feels safe and frankly so do I, she evens looks forward to going to the range with me. Wonder if I can talk her into shooting my magnum.Naw! Home security companies advertise on TV day and night. You see their ads all the time. They are trying to get your business of course. The reason is because home burglary and home invasions are two of the fastest-growing crimes in the country.A home invasion is a version of a home burglary. Home burglary is usually done by one person who picks a house that he knows the occupants are gone. A home invasion is usually done by two or more people specifically done when they know the occupants are there.So in that sense it's a much more terrifying crime and it usually ends in some kind of violence, whereas in a burglary the bad guy is in and out hopefully without even anyone knowing about it.
In another instance, I had a gentleman who's primary concern was dogs. He and his wife walked in the early mornings and lately he had noticed some stray dogs around. I showed him a canine repellant spray and a stun baton. He got one of each.Like anything, self defense has a lot to do with your personal comfort zone. You may be empowered with a flashlight stun gun on your belt holster.But if the sound of a stun gun sparking startles you and causes you to jump back rather than towards your assailant, then it would be rendered ineffective.
Self defense is a growing problem in an ever more violent world. The majority of women, in fact, know their attackers. This puts them at an even greater disadvantage because they may not suspect that trouble is brewing. For them, women's self defense products can be lifesaving. The key is in finding the best choices in self defense items.There are a variety of pepper sprays for use as self defense weapons. Some of them are even better than the rest in that they are easily disguised. Some may have pepper sprays contained in a lipstick tube-shaped device. Other pepper sprays come in the form of rings and other jewelry. These types of self defense items make it easy to surprise an attacker.
Alarms may also be used as women's self defense weapons. When an attacker hears a loud, shrill noise, he is more likely to back away and leave the scene. Personal alarms are also often disguised. Sometimes they take the shape of flashlights, and may also contain pepper sprays. Other personal alarms are small and sleek, but have a flashlight included in their design for women's self defense. There are also personal alarms that are shaped like key chains or can be attached to key chains.In many cases, the best self defense items women can use are stun guns. There is a large variety to choose. Many of the self defense products are small and easily disguised. One type of stun guns used for women's self defense is made in the shape of cell phones. They carry charges of as high as 950,000 volts. The best of these stun guns have disabling pins so that they will be useless to the attacker if he grabs it away from the woman.
Those same three or four years ago you would not be reading this book because the technology simply did not exist to make this book a real manual on home defense. Times and technology have changed. For the better in many ways.If you can't have (or choose not to have) a firearm what can you use to defend the people in your life without breaking any laws or spending years in martial arts training? The answer is amazingly simple and not as expensive as a trip to the emergency room.
Paintballing is now a family sport with men, women and young people of all ages involved. It is played in the woods, inside buildings, in paintball parks and in urban environments and not just some silly looking make believe battleground.The Generation 6 paintball weapon is a self-contained, rapid fire single shot, 3 round burst or fully automatic, magazine fed weapon that can, in the right hands, and with a little training be a highly effective method for family, home and personal defense.In short, non-lethal does not mean painless or ineffective by any stretch of the imagination. And unlike conventional firearms anyone over the age of 18 can purchase and legally own their choice of paintball weapons. There are no government restrictions what-so-ever. This means that regardless of your past you now have a legal, very effective way to protect your children, your family, yourself and your home.
