For one reason or another, too many things frighten me. When I was a kid, I would cling to my mother whenever I felt terrified and it worked for me. Now that I am 25, I am not faring any better except that I can’t hide behind mom anymore.
My fearful nature heightened when I learned that an office mate was attacked down the street. He is 6’5″ and weighs 250 pounds but got beaten up by three men. I am only 5’4″ and weigh 165 pounds. I was sure that those men would not hesitate to mug me, given the chance.
For these reasons, I inquired into Mace pepper sprays online. I had a nagging feeling that a defense spray would make up for what I lacked in physical strength and courage.
I purchased the Mace Pepper Foam – Magnum model initially. It is composed of 10% pepper, UV dye and foam. After spreading all over the face, the foam induces temporary blindness. Should the recipient try to remove it, pepper would infiltrate the eyes and the face to make him hurt intensely. Made up of 8 one-second bursts, this mini pepper spray is effective for up to 8 to 10 feet.
The first order paved the way for me buying other Mace pepper sprays. Later on, I got the Mace Pepper Gel – Magnum model. I think of it as the suspended gel version of the usual liquid stream. The strong pepper spray boasts an extended range of 18 feet while comprising a heftier 13 one-second bursts.
I feel safe when I have a defense spray with me because I do not worry about being bullied at work anymore. I no longer have a need to retaliate using brute force, which always backfired in the past.
After being motivated to keep trying Mace pepper sprays, I came across the Mace Pepper Gun. It utilizes a modern delivery system based on Bag-in-a-Can technology, which gets the pepper gun to operate as an aerosol would. I can fire it from any angle, like upside down if I have to. This potent pepper spray has a working distance of 25 feet and can empty 7 25-foot blasts onto the goons.
Pepper sprays are non-lethal weapons yet they can cause any aggressor discomfort and pain, especially when he is hit in the eyes. I have never held my head so high while walking on the street than with these Mace pepper sprays at my disposal.
