Best concealed weapon to carry on runs. (Read 462 times)


Feeling the growl again

     


     

      It never hurts to practice discharging one (I've discharged one that was past it's expiration date) just to get a feel for it.  I think they would be overkill for a dog.

     

    There is no such thing as overkill for preventing a nasty bite.  Smile

     

    I have never tried the spray but was told the bear spray had a better nozzle/reach than typical pepperspray.  I do not know if that is truly the case though.

      It has a very controlled stream out to about 30 feet at least.  Just pull it back and let it rip.  I didn't time it, but it seemed like it took about a minute to empty the can.  I would think it would literally knock a charging dog on it's butt.  For sure it wouldn't be able to see or smell long before it ever got to you.

            Come on, Andy. I know you are as moved by the events at Boston as anyone else. I think it's reasonable that we wouldn't really want a "Best concealed weapons" thread at the top of a running message board right about now.

                No kidding.

                 

                1) I'm trying to track down several friends I have not heard from yet.  I'm tryin' real hard not to post emotionally here.

                 

                2) It's an emotional time.  Tempers are short.  Nobody needs self-righteous thread police picking trouble.  I'm sure the Boston threads will stay by the top all by themselves.
