Importance Of Acquiring Personal Defense Gizmos For Yourself

By Kennth C Boodreau


I gripped the pepper pen within my palm, recalling the first time I made a decision to get self defense products for my own protection. It was my very first defense spray. While non deadly, and leaving no permanent harm, self defense sprays still induce discomfort, a burning sensation as well as breathing constraint once hit on the face or skin.

Mine may seem tiny and harmless but this is a potent pepper spray with 10% oleoresin capsicum content as well as works coming from a range of 6 to 8 feet. And because of its strength, the results can last up to 45 minutes. When I utilized it, just a one-second burst had my enemy shutting his eyes and howling in pain before I ran off.

When I shared my own experience along with Dixon, he was incredulous. "Go have a look at it," I told him. "Edmonds is not extremely far from Seattle proper, and who knows? You may need it, as well."

He ultimately opted for a 1/2 oz. defense spray with Quick Release key chain. Rated at 2 million Scoville Heat Units, it was also made from a really fine grain for greater effectiveness.

Good thing, he had learned how to utilize the pepper spray appropriately and was already at ease with this. Shortly after, Dixon saved a college kid that was in a tug-of-war with a robber looking to flee with her bag.

As I was contemplating on getting another pepper spray for my walks, I caught a television interview with a lady who related how a defense spray helped her to escape two stoned college kids wanting to molest her.

Thanks to the 2 oz. inert spray her boyfriend got her, she had learned the use of pepper sprays and was attentive and confident when it came time to protect herself with the real thing. The practice spray makes use of water pressurized by nitrogen instead of actual capsicum. While not dangerous in the manner real pepper spray is, it can still bring about skin irritation or burning.

It really pays to know about self defense weapons during this day and age.
