Self Defense - Why Pepper Gel is The Best Defense for You

Author: Jack Krohn

There is little doubt among professionals of the effectiveness of pepper spray. Even "DOG" the bounty hunter, and "Stephanie Plum" the femme fatale fictional bounty hunter of Janet Evanovich's best sellers use or carry pepper spray. More and more professional police departments use and carry some form of pepper spray. Almost all security companies have their guards use and carry pepper spray.

Pepper spray uses Oleoresin Capsicum (OC) which comes from cayenne pepper. Defensive pepper sprays are measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU's) a common measure of a products' "hotness". A jalapeno pepper has an SHU of 5000, a habanero pepper 300,000 and a typical pepper spray will be in the 2 million SHU range.

A short burst in the face of an attacker from a pepper spray canister causes shortness of breathe, temporary blindness from the eyes actually closing, choking and coughing. Not to mention the pain. The natural reaction from a victim of a pepper spray squirt is to rub the spray, which just makes it worse, and now his hands are burning. There is no permanent damage to the attacker.

All of these attributes apply to pepper gel pepper spray. But there's more. The new pepper gel has an extended range of up to 18 feet. Most pepper sprays have a range of 6-12 feet. And the delivery system carrying the pepper is a gel instead of a mist or liquid stream, the gel is more likely to be on target. Pepper gel has a stronger concentration of pepper and sticks like glue when it hits the target-the attackers face.

--Increased range.

--Higher concentration of pepper for great stopping power.

--Greatly increased accuracy.

--Sticks like glue.

When you are being attacked and your life is on the line these factors are huge. That is why pepper gel is the best non lethal self defense weapon for you. Carry it in your car, your purse, have one at home, in the office because you never know when you'll need it.

After all if it is good enough for Stephanie Plum and "DOG" the bounty hunter and thousand of police professionals why wouldn't it be good enough for you?

If you think crime can only happen to the other guy you are wrong. The "other guy" is thinking the same thing and YOU are that "other guy". There is a reason why they call it self defense. You have to protect yourself, your family, your home and business!!
