If you own a pistol for protection, do you have a set of handcuffs?
I'd think you'd want a set of good handcuffs.
If you subdue an attacker, you want to be able to restrain them until the authorities arrive. You know the guy is going to be thinking "how can I get out of this?" Will he run, attack, grab a hostage?
Sometimes, the police take as long as an hour to respond. I would want to be sure the attacker is lying face down with hands handcuffed behind him and me pointing my weapon at him from behind and out of his range of sight.
Just a thought for safety.
