For one thing if the perp grabs you while being tasered you get shocked and potentially rendered immobile as well. I have my doubts about the effectiveness of a taser in a close quarter scuffle. You want to put an attacker down before they are within a 7 foot leap.

I'm a large man, and in unarmed conflict with me, you will lose. Pull a gun, and Vegas odds of that happening go down dramatically. Hell, you get an 80 year old woman who pulls a gun on me, and all you'll read about is some little old lady telling you how she pumped some asshole full of lead.
You get your gun, train on it, know it like the back of your hand, and if you ever feel the need to pull it, you pull it and shoot until the threat is gone. Then you call the cops and your attorney. You say nothing to the cops, and let your attorney do the talking.
