Americans have a proverb: "Previously, people were divided into large and small - the first offended the second. But Mr. Colt came and called all the chances. "
Оружие для самообороны считается гражданским.It is a means to help balance forces between the attacker and the defender. It includes technical means that allow the owner to use their legitimate use to protect their lives and health.
Civilian weapons used for self-defense are those with which a person freely moves through the territory of the state of which he is a subject.
Weapons for self-defense may requirelicense. If it is necessary, the citizen must take it with him to confirm the right to carry and store weapons. Civilian weapons exclude fire bursts and can not have a drum capacity exceeding 10 rounds.
Smoothbore weapons for self-defense are considered the most powerful. It is divided into several types:
For self-defense, semi-automatic and pump guns are excellent. Determine which weapon is better for self-defense, you can, by comparing its characteristics.
IZh-43 K (homing double-barrel) - one of thethe simplest species. It is quite effective. Can be stored even in a charged state, which is important for the defender. With this double-barreled it is easy to handle, and in comparison with semi-automatic and pump rifles it is more reliable. This model refers to the in-club, where the outer hammers are springs for a platoon, are not real triggers.
TOO-106 small-sized multiply charged rifleThe twentieth caliber has a bolt lock. The model is compact, with a chrome-trimmed trunk and a folding butt. Has boxed quick-detachable stores. It is relatively inexpensive, but not of good quality. When used, problems can occur due to a tight shutter, and when recharging, skewing and jamming of cartridges is possible. Sometimes when a shot falls out the store. But all factory defects are easily corrected at home.
Pump rifle TOZ-94 12-caliber tooinexpensive and inherited from its prototype a good design. It is of multi-use, and is used for self-defense as well. There are several of its modifications. A gun with a good fight, but the mechanisms do not always work reliably.
Semi-automatic rifle TOZ-187 12-caliber -This is a semi-automaton, which with its prototype of similarity has little. There are also disadvantages: the mechanisms do not always work reliably, because of this, when firing, there is sometimes a slight delay. Therefore, for self-defense the gun is allowed, but still it is not enough.
Помповое ружье ТОЗ-194 12-го калибра надежнее, than TOZ-187 and TOZ-194. It is more convenient and has a good design. And the pumping rifles IZH-81 KM and IZH-81 are considered the most reliable. They are multi-purpose and perfectly suited for self-defense. On the basis of IZH-81, another good model is developed - MP-133, which provides safety when handling it.
A series of rifles "Saiga-12" - semi-automatic.They have high reliability, they are produced in many modifications: with a folding butt; sighting bar that can be adjusted; muzzle replaceable nozzles; trunks of various lengths.
Pump rifle Remington 870 very oftenUsed as a weapon for self-defense. It is multi-purpose, with many modifications, which differ in the length of the trunk, additional accessories, etc. It is considered expensive, but very reliable.
Нарезное оружие для самообороны ранее не было is common. But recently deputies introduced the issue of allowing its use by citizens and for these purposes. Experts note that the complexity of handling it and other aspects do not affect the recognition of it as suitable for self-defense.
Air guns do not have a bigpower, but nevertheless apply for self-defense. At the same time, they also have an advantage, since gas cylinder guns can be acquired without a license, but on the condition that the citizen has reached the age of majority. However, there is a small obstacle to remember. The use of pneumatic weapons is not prohibited, but there is a ban on carrying them. In gas weapons use carbon dioxide cylinders that are attached to the fitting. Basically the cylinder is under the barrel or in the handle.
In the free market, pneumaticthe weapon was originally intended for recreational and sport shooting at short distances. Pneumatic revolvers and pistols have a caliber of 4.5 mm, and basically have muzzle energy of up to 7.5 J. But they do not sell more powerful weapons without registration. Moreover, each country has its own limitations on the parameters of this type of weapon. Bullets weigh very little - about 0.5 g.
Пневматическое оружие для самообороны уступает traumatic pistols several times on the most important parameters: the mass of the bullet and its energy. A ball that is released from a pneumatic weapon cannot provide a strong blow, but nevertheless it is quite capable of penetrating human skin. However, this is only under the condition that there is no heavy clothing at the site of the impact. A ball of pneumatics can cause a little pain, but it can only suspend a sober person. But being intoxicated is unlikely.
If the defender shoots in the head, thengas cylinder pistol does not penetrate the skull, but if you miss and get into the eye, for example, inflicting a heavy injury to the attacker, you can be in prison for exceeding the necessary defense.
Pneumatic weapons are sometimes unreliable,since the gas is in the cartridge, which tends to gradually lose the "charge". And in case of frost, the pressure also decreases. Pneumatic weapons can be compressor. In this case, the pressure in the pneumatic chamber is injected by overlapping the barrel during charging and movement of the lever.
What is a permitted weapon for self defense? This is, first of all, permitted by law for free storage and carrying. And various things at hand, with which you can repel the attack.
Weapons allowed for self-defense, is divided into four main types:
Firearms for self defense requiresavailability of a license. However, you can use other options. Gas cartridges are the most common weapon for self-defense, due to their small size, low price and strong action. They contain irritating substances that, if they are inhaled or inhaled, cause tearing, a sharp cough and sharp pain. But for efficiency, it is necessary to get a jet from a balloon in the face of the attacker. And to repel an attack, the attacker must be located no further than two meters from the defender.
Stun guns are stun guns.It is mainly intended for contact battles. Yes, and when protecting a stun gun, you need to fix it on the attacker's body for a couple of seconds, which is often impossible.
What weapon to choose for self-defense?Traditionally, the best option is considered pump. You can, of course, use any gun, but still the best option - short-barreled, as close as possible to the pistols. Weapons for these purposes should be compact, lightweight, reliable and easy to use. The gun can replace the butt on the pistol grip, which will make it even more compact. But this may introduce some limitations in the accuracy of the sight.
Pistols and revolvers preferably selectedso that they can fit in a small purse (for example, women), without standing out and not attracting attention. Therefore, those models that do not work on their own, but have fuses, are very important.
Single weapon for self defense will not work,since the first shot, according to the law, is fired into the air to warn the attacker. Pump weapons - the best choice, as it is compact, undemanding to the power of cartridges, has the ability to recharge.
Gas cartridges, stun guns, etc. should also be small, compact, with the ability to respond quickly in a critical situation.
It is best to pick up cartridges that will helpAvoid rebounding, as the first shot by law should always be cautious (in the air). Weapons for self-defense, loaded with small fraction, will be effective at close range, the farther - the more accuracy is lost. Cartridges for any weapon should not have great penetrating power.
One of the best options when choosing a weaponfor defensive purposes is Flaubert's revolver. It has a classic shape, looks frightening and can scare the attacker. Has the different sizes and conveniently lays down in a female hand. Basically it is made of non-magnetic alloys, and this causes high quality products.
It is believed that among the revolvers is the bestweapon for self defense. It has a good mass of bullets and more power. The sound of a shot is no different from a combat one. Such revolvers can be purchased without registration and permission. They are easy to use.
Weapons for self-defense without a license - thisgas spray cans, electroshock devices, small air guns and mechanical sprays. Gas pistols also fall into the category of gas-spray weapons. But they cannot be used in confined spaces.
Электрошокеры различаются по мощности, при Self-defense is better to use a model with a small voltage. Pneumatic weapons also do not require a license, but nevertheless, outwardly, they are as close to combat ones as possible, they give a psychological effect, and the attacker will not be able to immediately determine if it is real.
Yet most of the weapons will require a license. For self-defense receive a separate. The difference is that the hunting and military weapons require personal permission.
To obtain a license, you must passExamination in a psychoneurological, narcological dispensary, clinic, take photos and contact the licensing department at the Department of Internal Affairs. Next - buy a weapon and get permission for it. Sometimes you may need to purchase a safe for storage. The weapon license is issued within a month after the application is submitted.
Gas revolvers and pistols, tubelessfirearms can be purchased only by persons who have reached the age of majority, with mandatory registration of weapons in a 2-week period at the ATC at the place of residence. The license allows no more than 5 units of registered weapons. It is also a permit for carrying and storage.
