My recent discussions on Unarmed Defense and Pepper Spray got me to thinking about other useful items that can be carried for self-defense in lieu of, or in conjunction with, a handgun. One that seems particularly useful is a retractable baton.

Regardless of intention, there are times when carrying a handgun for self-defense is difficult, if not impossible. This might be because you’re somewhere it is illegal to carry, or because it is too much of a hassle. I didn’t carry my Kimber with me to SHOT Show, which was a difficult decision, but even without it, I still considered myself safe because I also practice unarmed defense.

Carrying a handgun might require that you change some of your everyday habits, like possibly eating at different restaurants, not entering certain stores and, if you’re really serious about always carrying refraining from traveling to or within states that have unfriendly gun laws. It can also change the way you dress.

Distance is a friend, especially in self-defense situations. The more distance between you and a bad guy, the more you control the outcome of the situation. Unfortunately, since the attacker usually picks the location, distance is not always under your control. For this reason, you should consider in-your-face situations during training.
