Some of the more traditional stun guns are fairly large, and women often said they were too big for their smaller hands. That just isn't true anymore, and women are now able to carry plenty of skell stopping power just as easily as men.

The Stun Master 625 is a prime example. It's 7 inches long but only 2 inches wide. That design is specifically made for people with smaller hands, and it packs a punch that will knock down an NFL lineman.

In addition to the Stun Master 625 you have The Runt, and the Stun Master Hot Shot. Both of them are no bigger than a pack of cancer sticks, and pack enough voltage to short circuit the brains of a pack of skells.

Then you have Lipstick Pepper Spray, and a whole bunch of Mace options. There just isn't any excuse not to get several items that you can use at anytime.

And the new Mace Pepper Gun is the ne plus ultra of pepper products. That means it's the cat's S, or superdooper. It is designed so that anyone can use it effectively. It has my vote for product of the year, maybe even the last five years.

Ten years ago the small hands excuse might have been true, but not anymore. There are a plethora of products designed just for you. Start picking some of them up now.

If you're prepared, you'll never be surprised,
