As a self-defense weapon, a lipstick stun gun would be best for girls as it is a masked stun gun. That is, it appears deceptively like lipstick. Stun guns are generally non-lethal and will not bring about any long term effects to an opponent. A stun gun works to disable an attacker momentarily by giving electric shock straight to the aggressor’s body. Once he is hit, you will have several minutes to get away and ask for backup. Disguised stun guns are effective at offering you the element of surprise. Think about it, who would feel that a simple tube of lipstick is truly a stun gun in disguise? A lipstick stun gun is extremely helpful because of its small size, that is usually within the 3-inch range. You could stuff it in your purse or hide it within your pocket for faster reach in emergency situations. Lipsticks posing as stun guns come with different specifications. A disguised stun gun that is also really practical would have a rechargeable, built-in battery with an integrated charge, much like Stun Master’s line of high voltage rechargeable lipstick stun guns. Excellent disguised stun guns are also integrated with 2 handy buttons. One button is made for activating the stun gun while the other button is for switching on a flashlight. In this context, a lipstick stun gun with a built-in flashlight is further among the finest options considering that, undoubtedly, many attacks occur soon after evening falls. In addition, another practical characteristic that you would want your mini stun gun to own is a disable pin. Such a pin is usually attached to a wrist strap and found at the bottom portion of a lipstick stun gun. This helpful feature is used to avoid even a high voltage stun gun from working in case a wrongdoer gets a hold of your unit. When this comes about, the attached disable pin will be pulled out immediately once the stun gun is removed from your grasp.
