The modern world is far from ideal. Outbreaks of violence and aggression among civilized society are no longer an exception. And more and more are becoming mass. It is practically impossible to predict where and when the next conflict of interests will occur, so everyone can become a participant in a non-standard situation, regardless of their desire.
Stun guns
Today it is not difficult to purchase a self-defense tool without a license - you can find a suitable model on the Internet or visit a specialized store.
Despite the saturation of the market with new and more advanced personal protective equipment, the time-tested stun gun still occupies a leading position.
A small device that can be easily hidden in a pocket or handbag can produce voltages of up to three million volts, which, in fact, affects the enemy.
Self-defense tools such as stun guns, as a rule, do not harm the general health of a person, causing only muscle cramps, pain shock and burns, in rare cases provoking loss of consciousness. However, if a person has problems with the functioning of the cardiovascular system, electric shock can be a serious test for the body and even lead to death.
However, the use of an electric shocker is not necessary, since the very appearance of an arc from an electric current gives fear to the enemy, and, fearing to be hit, he usually hides.
Another advantage of this tool is the lack of certain physical parameters and special skills.
Using a stun gun is quite easy, you just need to bring the device to a part of the enemyβs body and press the start button.
Gas cans
The best means of self-defense for women is aerosol-gas devices. Gas canisters are very affordable and common, sometimes they are sold even in supermarkets.
The principle of operation of such a device is the damaging effect of a special gas on the mucous membranes of a person. Gas is harmless to human life and has only a temporary effect, namely: lacrimation, pain, disorientation, respiratory rhythm disturbance.
In this method, coordination of actions is important, since if the gas stream does not hit the target (eyes, mouth), the enemy will not receive the necessary damage and may become even more angry.
Telescopic baton
Some means of self-defense at first glance are completely harmless. For example, when folded, a telescopic baton resembles a pen case. But just press the button, the mechanism is activated, presenting an awesome means of self-defense. The baton is made of durable material that allows you to repeatedly increase the force of impact.
The disadvantage of this device is the unwanted use by persons with poor physical fitness. If you act ineptly, and the strength of your blow is not enough to destabilize the enemy, he can take away weapons and use them against you.
Brass knuckles
The most ancient means of self-defense (without a license), which allows to increase the destructive power in fist fighting, is brass knuckles, or a weighting arm. Of course, such a tool will be useful only for men, since women rarely come into close contact with the enemy.
It is known that even ordinary keys, clutched in the palm of your hand, double the impact force.
Brass knuckles can cause significant harm to the opponent in the form of cuts, cuts and abrasions. Some species are equipped with sharp blades or spikes, which turns them, in fact, into melee weapons.
However, no authorization is required for these self-defense equipment.
Laser stun guns
An improved and more functional look of the shocker. The current mechanism is equipped not with a current, but with a laser device, which blinds the enemy and causes disorientation in space.
The device is compact and does not take up much space, so it can be hidden even in a small handbag. To use the laser shocker does not require physical advantage, special skills and direct contact. It is effective even at a distance of two meters, which allows you to start using it even before approaching an attacker. The likelihood that the enemy will take possession of your weapons is minimized. In addition, the laser beam can be aimed at several opponents, so this type of weapon is very effective in a group attack. In order to bring the mechanism into action, just a simple click on the button. The laser beam has low damaging power, so there is no chance of fatal injuries.
These advantages turn laser stun guns into the most promising means of self-defense without permission, as evidenced by a marked increase in demand for this product.
Firearms
If the above list does not satisfy your needs, and you want to replenish your arsenal with a more effective means of self-defense, you will need a little more time and money to acquire it.
At the request of federal law, in order to become the owner of knives or firearms, you must first obtain a license.
