Self Defense-Why Pepper Spray is THE Best Choice
By Jack Krohn
Believe it or not, when it comes to affordable and non-lethal self defense weapons, pepper spray is right up there at the top of list because of two main reasons: ease of use and effectiveness. Though, almost every pepper spray is created equally, some are better than others (mainly due to their OC concentration). Chemically and technically, the OC concentration is Oleoresin Capsicum concentration. A good pepper spray contains a low percentage concentration of OC, say 10% or even less.
Male or female, children or adults, stronger or weaker—anybody can use pepper spray for self defense a variety of situations. For example, women and girls who have always been vulnerable to attacks can now feel safer by carrying a pepper spray.
Pepper Spray is a lachrymatory agent that can be easily used in case of riot and personal self-defense. It is a powerful, handy and non-lethal sel defense weapon that can be utilized in rarest of cases. The lachrymatory agent present in pepper spray is actually a compound that irritates the eyes to an extent to cause tears and pain. It may cause temporary blindness in many cases.
Pepper sprays are available in a wide variety and styles to choose from to fit any individual’s needs. After you've decide that pepper spray is your choice for a non-lethal self defense weapon there are many choices to choose from depending upon their sizes, colors, canister sizes, disguises, and spray types. Generally regular spray shoots a stream out to 8-10 feet, but if you need a higher range a new gel spray (peppergel) is available with increased range up to 18 feet.
Whether you are a man or woman, strong or weak, expert or novice, a pepper spray can prove to be your best friend. It is one of the best self defense tools on the market today. It can easily ward off the attack of an assailant allowing you enough time to escape or detain your assailant.
Please Note that even though pepper spray is legal in all 50 states, some states and cities have restrictions. Check with your local police department. Literally thousands of police departments carry and use pepper spray.

Self Defense - Which Non Lethal Self Defense Weapon is Best for You?
By Jack Krohn
Okay so you have made a conscious decision to get a non lethal self defense weapon instead of a handgun. Now what?
Non lethal self-defense weapons are gaining in popularity because they are effective against attacks. Martial arts and other self-defense courses are great to learn, but for many people, they take too much time to learn and can be expensive. You are not always going to have the opportunity to use learned self-defense skills. Non lethal self defense weapons such as stun guns, pepper sprays, tasers, etc. are a more practical way to go.
Before you go out and purchase a non lethal self-defense weapon you should consider some of the following points:
• WHICH IS BEST FOR YOU? Study and learn as much as you can. See what weapon is going to be right for you both on a physical and mental level.
•LEARN HOW TO USE IT. Having a self defense weapon and not knowing how to use it can injure you as easily as it can hurt your assailant. Once you have chosen a self-defense product, ask for proper instructions on how to use it, or take a course in using the products properly. Then PRACTICE using it until it becomes second nature.
•IS IT LEGAL IN YOUR AREA?You don’t want the embarrassment of being harassed by local law enforcement. Take the time to see if you are allowed to carry the self-defense product you have chosen. Some may need permits or other permission before you can carry them around in public.
•DON'T OVERCARRY – If pepper spray is going to give you the jump you need to defend against an assailant, then there is really no need to carry air guns, slingshots or a taser. When the time comes to use your weapon there cannot be any indecision as to which to use.
Self defense products can get you out of a bad situation – there is no doubt about that. Unless you know what you need, how to use that product, and the legality of it, you may be getting into trouble. You can actually do yourself more harm that good by not doing your homework before you invest time and money into self-defense products. They can save your life, your money and provide you with peace of mind.
