Is a Taser Gun good for Self-Defense?

A non-lethal, legal weapon is always a highly preferred choice for self-protection. Even if you’re legally allowed to carry a lethal defense weapon, like a gun or a knife, you don’t want to have to use it. So, carrying pepper spray, a stun gun, or a Taser gun are the best options for self-defense.

Which is better, Stun Gun or Taser Gun?

When we compare Taser Gun vs Stun Gun, TASER devices can fire the electric probes at distances up to 15 feet, or they can be used at closer proximities to deliver the electric shock. Stun guns, however, can only be used in close proximity. Because they have to make physical contact with the attacker and they can’t “shoot” probes as a taser can. So, when it comes to Taser Gun vs Stun Gun, both are effective choice.
