Stun guns are powerful self defense items designed to overpower the assailant with raw electricity. When used effectively, stun guns delivery large amounts of pain that can overpower some people and deter most other people from continuing the attack.

Stun guns work by basically interrupting the electrical signals that communicate messages back and forth from the brain to the rest of the body. Like communication traveling over the internet or telephone system, these communication messages run through nerve cells that branch throughout your body carrying information from the brain about how the muscles should move.
