Is it advisable for a woman unmarried male or even hold a pistol pepper / for protection? If you have a criminal record, advise you carry a gun for protection, whether it's a real gun, stun gun or Taser, pepper etc and the same?
Facing your fears is how to get rid of your fears for the guns. My hands have registered as a weapon because I limp, but you bet I use it for self-defense!
I think so. I mean, the world becomes a scary place. Now, I do not know about two big dogs, it's your choice. And actually if you load your file in crime you can not have a gun anyway.
I am a professional instructor of firearms for defense, then, as you might guess, my answer is "yes." I advise against tasers, though. You only get one shot, so if you miss or if your attacker is wearing heavy clothing, or there is more than one of them, you're out of luck. Pepper spray at least you can engage multiple attackers from a distance.
The best way I know to get over a fear of firearms is to learn to use them. An gentle introduction to marksmanship, starting with a .22 rifle or handgun, is the best, but I've seen novices come to a total of our defense pistol classes and leave with skills that they do not know they could learn.
Dogs are a good addition to your personal safety. If they can scare a burglar before you have to defend yourself with lethal force, which will save you endless aggravation and legal fees, even if you do come out of the game in good shape.
If you're not afraid of guns, it would be stupid, I think.
As a man I am convinced that if I had chosen to attack a woman of her pepper spray would do him no good.
If you get a gun, you'll need to make training at a firing range, if the weapon is useless to you.
The needs of legal research in your state to carry a firearm.
My Taser on track.
I think pepper spray is permitted. Each woman who is alone should have it. Firearms may be used, I think as long as you get a professional to teach you and there are no children around. I was so sneaky when I was small I found everything my mom hid it and had no idea.
A trick I use is to keep my set of keys next to my bed. If someone was breaking in I press the panic button and my car alarm goes off until I close it. This makes all the angry neighbors and curious to see what happens. It would probably be the odd run because he does not want the attention of neighbors. You could also tell your neighbors about your plan and call 911 if this occurs.
