Why Use Pepper Spray?

Many people would like to carry a self-defense product with them wherever they go, but often in many areas in this country, guns, knives, swords and many other self-defense weapons of a certain size and type are simply not a good choice by law. You could easily end up in jail, or be mistakenly fired upon by law enforcement in many jurisdictions. If you don't believe it, just try flashing one of these items around. These kinds of  defensive weapons are not legal to carry in public places because of their deadly potential. Yet the fact remains that teens, men, women, disabled ones and seniors will continue to need some form of effective self-defense these days. One of the best solutions is simply to carry the well known Pepper Shot Pepper Spray, a non-lethal highly effective self-defense product.

Pepper spray is very easy to find online and for the most part, something that nearly everyone can afford. It usually comes in a small canister that is contained within a small plastic casing or leather-like holster and can comfortably fit into any pocket, belt, jacket, purse, or backpack.

You can hide it in your makeup bag or pencil bag if you don’t want anyone to know that you’re carrying it. It’s also small enough to tuck into a small evening bag for when you go to the bar or nightclub. Keep it with you at all times, because attackers may not necessarily try to do so only in secluded places when you’re alone.

The pepper spray holder comes in an assortment of colors and sizes. You can choose from black, red, pink, or blue in either a leather holster or injection molded jacket. No one will ever know it’s pepper spray—they’ll simply think you’re carrying a cell phone or a flashlight. The leatherette model holster has a silver snap closure on the front, which provides additional protection from you accidentally spraying yourself.

The personal models of  pepper spray can be kept easily within reach, when you need to walk to your car or the transit late at night, or through any questionable part of town. The pepper spray holster has a handy key ring on it so you can attach it to your keys, your belt, or your pants buckle strap. The holster or holder is made from leatherette materials, and can be easily wiped clean with a cloth.

The Pepper Shot brand of  Pepper Spray is made from natural capsaicin pepper. It has a 10% dilution that is rated at 2 million Scoville heat units. It’s made with a finer grain than any of the other coarser grain pepper sprays, providing a better wallop and a better chance of escaping from your attacker.
Pepper spray works by you aiming the canister in the direction of your attacker’s face and eyes, and pressing the button. It will deliver a fine spray to their face. The pepper spray will swell up their mucous membranes, causing breathing difficulties, as well as a swelling up of the eyes, making them quickly close shut. This gives you the opportunity to escape.

The negative effects of pepper spray is that it can last up to forty-five minutes and may require some intervention to rid oneself of these painful effects. The primary benefit is that pepper defense is non-lethal and causes no lasting damage to the attacker, minimizing your legal liability should anything ever come up and you go to court.

There is also a locking actuator on the pepper spray so that you won’t accidentally spray it while it’s being transported in your purse or pocket.

For your personal safety, pepper spray can be one of the easiest yet most effective self-defense weapons for the price. It doesn’t take any time-consuming training or lengthy specialized instructions to read. There are a few cautions to be mindful of such as avoiding spraying it into the wind so that it doesn’t blow backward and disable you by accident. If you can spray a bottle of hair spray or perfume, you can spray your pepper spray for legal self-defense.
