However, Remember that any Item can cause bodily injury to anyone at anytime. Stun guns are applied to the body with touch and is controlled by person useing it and has a far less chance of causing any permanent damage. A Taser Fires Barbed Dart Electrodes according to the user's aim, and have been known to cause unintended permanent damage on others such as ocular, skin, blood vessel and Testicle Injuries.

Stun Guns and Taser devices are reported about all the time. So much so that the average Joe uses those words interchangeably. Stun guns and tasers have a very important tactical difference and technical difference.

If you need to repel someone, would you want to do it from 0 feet away or up to 15 feet? Up close and personal or from a safer distance?

Stun guns are an effective contact weapon but you must physically touch the person with the prongs of the stun gun. It is also best to hold it on them for many seconds. Stun guns work by rapidly overworking the muscle group and depleting it of blood sugar. See " how stun guns work" . In addition to shocking pain, the result is similar to muscle failure.

A Taser device such as the new Taser C2, allows you to repel the attacker from up to 15 feet away. Taser C2 is a civilian Taser that shoots 2 Barbed hooks attached to the Taser. Taser's NMI (Neuromuscular Incapacitation) Overrides the command and control systems of the body to impair muscular control. BIG difference from a stun gun which requires direct contact. Police carry their own version of a Taser which you hear about if you're one to watch the news. The police version is similar to the C2's predecessor, Advanced Taser. However, the law enforcement version does have a longer range.

Those are the most Important Differences.

So now you know one of the main differences between a " taser" and a " stun gun." Effective range and technology. And you also know that a stun gun is NOT the same as a Taser. The media doesn't know any better when they're reporting it, but at least you do.
