If you wish to take a pacifist approach to survive the island, you'll want to know how to get a Stun Gun in Sons of the Forest.
Where To Get The Stun Gun In Sons Of The Forest

Sons of the Forest features various weapons that serve as tools. For example, you can chop down trees with Modern Axe or build a tent to defend yourself and your companions from enemies. While most weapons in the game employ a more lethal approach, like a Machete and the Chainsaw, the Stun Gun is the more non-threatening weapon.

Still, the question remains: Where can you find the Stun Gun in Sons of the Forest? Fortunately, the answer to that is pretty straightforward, as it can easily be found inside a cave along the beach. This guide will detail all the information on the location of the Stun Gun and how to get it in Sons of the Forest.

To get the Stun Gun in Sons of the Forest, locate the cave entrance on the island map's northwest side. Specifically, the cave is positioned east of the kayaks, which you'll need to enter from along the coast. Slide your way into the cave and, using your lighter, navigate the cave tunnels by sticking to your right. You'll pass by a light source found on the ground, which you'll need to follow the trail until it gets low, and you'll have to crouch to keep moving to your right.

Then move to the left and continue following this path marked with light sources on the ground until you find an area with skeletal remains on the floor. Take the path leading away from this area and keep to your left until you find a dead body marking a crossroad which you need to keep going right. Remain on this path and keep the light on until you reach an area dimly lit with a red light. You'll find an engineer's body hanging from the cave's ceiling, and upon searching behind it, you can find the Stun Gun hanging from the cave.

You can also pick up the Rebreather in this specific cave; however, you'll need to head back to where you found the dead body and, instead, go left. You may encounter some strong mutants and other enemies if you wish to retrieve it; otherwise, head back the way you came from to return to the beach. The Stun Gun is a non-lethal weapon used to neutralize enemies or stun animals before killing them to acquire raw meat. After firing the gun, you can reload it for another charge by pressing the allocated key or button using a controller.

That concludes the guide on where you can find the Stun Gun in Sons of the Forest, which should be one of the first weapons to find in-game. As mentioned before, do get the Rebreather which will let you swim for much longer underwater and helps to access hard-to-reach areas.
