I had 3 door knock teams.... one man one women... women kicked but men where there for safety.My wife is a lifelong realtor.. and there are certain things you need to do to be safe.. she kind of has a sense.. she gets crank calls and kind of has learned what situations not to be in.one of the major ones is alone with male.. she opens the house and stays on the front porch.. never gets trapped in a bedroom and would never go into a basement etc.talk to your real estate agent lady friends.. there are courses.having a firearm while great.. you have to be a quick draw and most can't hit the broad side of the barn with a pistol especially in a high stress situation..
