How Does Pepper Spray Feel Like?

In order to understand why law enforcement and civilians use pepper spray. One must first know its origions.

What kinds of pepper sprays are there? S.A. Self Defense explains.

Break Down the pepper spray S.A. With a wide variety of pepper sprays and bear repellents available in the market, it's crucial to understand the differences between them. The effectiveness of these products depends on factors such as formulation, range, and ease of use. Byrna Max and Hell BGR stand out as superior options in their respective categories, providing unmatched performance and reliability.

Different Types & Effectiveness

We will break down the different types of pepper spray, Range distance and effectiveness with ingredients. 1st up: Oil / Gel Based pepper spray - Oil or "Gel" based pepper spray like the Byrna MAX BGR pictured above, is more potent and longer-lasting than water-based pepper spray, as it sticks to the skin and eyes more effectively and is harder to wash off. It also has a slight advantage over spray for reducing the potential for cross contamination and blowback, as its sticky formula holds active ingredients within a concentrated stream focused toward your target.  2nd: Water based pepper spray - Water-based pepper spray like the Byrna HELL BGR pictured above, is safer to use indoors or in close quarters, as it reduces the risk of cross-contamination, inhalation and can be removed from the target area room, surrounding walls and furniture easier. The water based spray does shoot a pretty wide fan as the oil or gel based is more steady streamed. Each have their benefits and drawbacks such as the wind, proximity to other people, effective time to aim, and time it stays on the attacker. https://youtu.be/2utImT_eXSY 3rd: UV Dyed in Pepper spray - We highly recommend finding a pepper spray and Bear or animal repellent with UV dye built into it like shown in the video above! The UV dye helps either law enforcement identify the attacker weather it's a human or an animal like a bear. This way they just need a UV light to identify. Any way we can help it the best way! Say your hiking and need to use your repellent on an animal. That animal can no be singled out by a hero LE. Those are pretty much the 3 different types on Pepper spray on the market today.

Pepper spray is a device that dispenses capsicum for temporary incapacitation, typically through the eyes and respiratory tract. It is less lethal than a firearm of similar caliber in terms of lethal kinetic energy, but much more impactful in terms of incapacitating power.

Self-defense weapons can be useful if you feel unsafe in a certain situation. They are not meant to be used on anyone other than an assailant, and they should only be used with great care. Some defensive weapons are legal, while others are not. In some places there is the potential for legal consequences if you misuse defensive weapons against an attacker outside of your home.

An Option for those who are unable to conceal carry. A firearm is not, but some hot sauce on the assailant eye could make a difference. It's about creating an opportunity to counter or escape. #discipline #focus #determination #training #defensivefit #fighting #fearless #combatconditioning #selfdefense #combatives #selfprotection #womenselfdefense #selfaid #pepperspray #selfperservation (at Shock Room Fitness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfAJIZiJmg4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
