    Stun Gun vs. Pepper Spray

    Which is more practical for self defense in real world situations?

    Suppose you were minding your own business, and 2 or 3 guys came and started shit with you. What would be best for defense?



    Anybody have any stories from experience ?

          Do you have to hit someone in the eyes for it to be effective ?

                          I"ve never seen a stun gun used on someone. They're saying pepper spray doesnt always work, what about the effectiveness of a stun gun ?

                              Pepper spray.

                              Stun gun requires physical contact to be effective to impair someone. You could argue that flipping it on and off might scare your attacker, but in the real world you may not have the time to let them know you are armed. Pepper spray requires no physical contact and can be effective up to 10-15 feet away.

                              And no, you do not have to get them in the eyes, anywhere on or about the facil area is sufficient if you are carrying the right stuff.

                                  You have a better chance with the pepper spray. A stun gun doesn't always work but pepper spray can at least temporarily blind everyone.

                                      Neither one works well for self defense.

                                      You have to hold a stun gun directly into someone's body to get them to go down. Most times they'll jump back like you do when you get a shock. After that you have nothing.

                                      Pepper spray will only temporarily disorient someone if you hit them directly in the face. It rarely will take a determined bad guy who's on adrenaline down. Plus half the time if you spray and the wind is going the wrong way you're going to get it in your face too. Even if it gets on the person's clothes it'll probably get on yours also and you'll have trouble breathing too.

                                      Best defense is a knife, a concealed gun or a fully trained protection dog that goes everywhere with you.

                                      Out of those 3 give me the dog anyday. That's your best bet.

                                      When I walk on a busy street with my GSD by my side, people clear a wide path out of his way. LOL

                                          tasers that target your central nevous system, that'll knock pretty much anyone on their ass..

                                          you dont need to touch them with it, because they fire 2 little electrode hooks like 20 feet and zap through 2 inches of clothing..

                                              Although I would agree with most of what you said here, a dog was not one of the options. Also, there is a big practicality issue with dogs that the poster may not be able to approach.

                                                  Pepperspray is the best. Just holding it up to them and telling them it's pepperspray will make some people stay back.

                                                  For a stungun to be effective you have to get close to the person who is trying to attack you and almost touch them, and it gives them a chance to grab it away from you.

                                                  With pepperspray you can shoot it from a few feet away. Plus with pepperspray you can put it on your keychain without having to carry a big bulky stungun around.

                                                  I bought my mom and sisters all pepperspray to put to their keychains. It's better to have that than nothing.

                                                          Pepperball guns are cool too. 4 rounds per second of pepper in a paintball carrier. Shock and awe for sure!

IT SUCKS BIG TIME! I was on the floor holding my eyes. My nose started to leak and then my lips felt like they were on fire. I couldnt see well for at least 5 minutes. I was coughing and gagging also.

IT SUCKS BIG TIME! I was on the floor holding my eyes. My nose started to leak and then my lips felt like they were on fire. I couldnt see well for at least 5 minutes. I was coughing and gagging also.

                                                                              yeah and a stun gun gives you one hell of a shock but doesn't knock you out for a few mins, with pepperspay the target goes down at least a few mins, enough to kick his head in.

                                                                                  Check out the video with the bull and think what pepper spray would have done there.

You could argue that flipping it on and off might scare your attacker, but in the real world you may not have the time to let them know you are armed. Pepper spray requires no physical contact and can be effective up to 10-15 feet away.

                                                                                      And no, you do not have to get them in the eyes, anywhere on or about the facil area is sufficient if you are carrying the right stuff.

                                                                                              Do you really know who has a gun in these days NO!

                                                                                              I hate when people think they are tough and all, see it all the time in New York.

                                                                                              Dont take any of this personal this is general stuff.

                                                                                              Sometimes you can't avoid a problem no matter how hard you try !

                                                                                                              Do you guys carry purses?

                                                                                                              No?

                                                                                                              I didn't think so.


                                                                                                              You can carry a snubnose .38 just as well as you can a stun gun so why buy the electric shit?

                                                                                                              But then, you really aren't going to shoot anyone anyway. So why bother with the tough talk. All this zapping people stuff sounds good but it never happens in a real life situation... unless you are the cops.

                                                                                                              If you really want to get out of something, just do as Escort Biz says or at the most, carry some pepper spray, blind the folks and scatter.

                                                                                                              Now a days, if you beat someone down they will shoot you when they recover later... even if you send them to the hospital. It's just not worth it anymore, at least here in NY it's not.

Ya might tag one of em, but you have the others that'll just be major pissed and put a bigger hurtin on ya, then probably take the gun and use it on you...

Just imagine what could happen if youre looking for your lighter or something..

                                                                                                                                          Do you really know who has a gun in these days NO!

                                                                                                                                          Dont take any of this personal this is general stuff.

                                                                                                                                          Sounds like sound advice to me, why just be a tough guy, as you said, who knows who has a hand gun, and then it's all over, your their dead on the street, your gf left crying, is it worth it just to be a tough guy? Not in the real world, maybe to tell your friends, but not in the real world I think.

                                                                                                                                          You can get it ploughing a paddock, you can get it makin some porn sites, matter of fact I've got it now.
