Best personal defense weapon besides a gun?

[Sylvain]

Just a quick question, maybe some of you who carry a handgun also carry some other type of tools to protect yourself other than firearms.

What is for you the best defense weapon or tool besides a gun?

If you cant carry a gun for some reason, maybe you are in a country where you cant carry or you are not old enough to have your LTCH.

In that case what would you carry as your primary weapon?

Knife, pepper spray, Taser, expandable baton, others ...

A knife would be a good one. 2 knives would be better. Carrying an EDC light could also be used as a personal protection device if used properly. Even a Pen could be used. INGO mercop has a video somewhere on here using a pen as a weapon.

I generally carry 2 knives and a light as well as a gun or 2

 

[esrice]

In order it would be gun > knife > light > hands.

Primary should always be the one between your ears. If it is not 100% and properly trained none of the other,"tools", will matter anyway.

exactly, most useful weapon you have, keep yourself out of situations you CAN control and prepared for the ones you can't

Your brain, not just "besides" your gun, but before it.

Yourself. The way you carry yourself can bring on trouble or it can keep trouble at bay. The best way to stay out of a gunfight, is to take measures to not get in one.

Small hard plastic mallet. Plausible deniability, devastating when applied to certain areas.

A Tomahawk. I done did scalp't me many a man wit my dear Tomahawk.

ball peen hammer....Hells Angels seem to think they work well. Another legal and good idea is a master lock tied into a bandana. Hell, don't overlook pepper spray but if you want the best weapon then that is your brain.

 

[Sylvain]

Lots of people's answer is that your brain is the best weapon.
I never walk out of the house without mine so I was more asking for real type of weapons.

Nice but not easy to carry especially concealed.

I'd lean towards the sword.

Careful not to lean too much. Ouch.
