There's no denying that it's a dangerous world out there. While it's not a good idea to become paranoid, it's always a good idea to be prepared. That is why stun guns have become a popular self-defense choice for many people. Stun guns work by using electromagnetic impulses to hinder the workings of the attacker's muscles and nerves. When a stun gun hits the attacker, a sudden jolt of pain will surge through their body and the electromagnetic pulses will render the attacker paralyzed for a few moments. This allows the victim to escape unharmed to find help or call the authorities.

There are many makes and models of stun gun to choose from, and choosing the best stun gun for your needs is important in maximizing your personal safety.

People with smaller hands may prefer smaller models as these models fit better in their hands. However, this doesn't mean that larger stun guns are best for those with large hands. Larger stun guns are harder to conceal and they may feel clumsy to handle. If you're in a shop that sells stun guns, ask if you can handle varying sizes of stun gun to see which feels best to you. It should feel comfortable in your hands while being easy to carry around.
