What Pepper Spray

[Jaybird1980]

Looking to add some pepper spray to the golf cart. It will be mainly for dogs, but it will accompany me to Chicago when I have to go to the Dr.
It's been quite some time since I carried it for work, had to use it 3 times and even as crappy as the Halt brand we were issued was, it still did its job.
When I got looking into it there is fog, stream, foam or gel. What's your preferred brand and why?

Well, first of all I would advise against driving a golf cart to Chicago...

Use bear spray. You get a lot more of it. I have a bottle that can shoot 30 feet!

Either that or the mini bike. Lol

What brand do you use, Sabre?

I've recently been reading up on them. I like the Sabre Red with the flip cap. I heard that the twist "safety" can twist when in your pocket and you could have an unintentional discharge I am also looking at the POM.

I want the stream over the gel or fog. I think it will work better and not have as much of a chance to blow back in my face.

I use Fox Labs Mean Green or 5.3 or UDAP Mugger Fogger. I have Freeze +P that we got issued that has OC and CS that K9s abhor. My Malinois thinks any pepper spray is a condiment for kibble but not that +P!

I've been carrying POM OC spray for about 6 months now. I have the key ring version and it's worked out well so far. Haven't had to bless anyone with the hot sauce, but it carries easily and I feel good having it.

Here is a recent thread that has some more options and discussion.

I used Guard Dog pepper spray on a dog that bit me this summer. The stream went directly into the muzzle and eyes. The dog ran into the rail on the deck. Fell on the concrete steps and proceeded to run into the block wall of the garage, dragging its head on the ground. It then ran out into the yard and ran blindly through the neighbors yard and left. The spray is only a couple of short burst but was highly effective on the 40-50 pound mut. I purchased another to replace it and read on the package that if used they would replace it. Hope to never have to use it. It also contains a uv dye.

Thanks guys, I ordered some Sabre Frontiersman bear spray, not sure why I didn't think of that.

Now to come up with a way to mount it.

 

[KokomoDave]

I like to mount mine doggy style but I am mildly handicapped.

FYI, pepper spray is illegal in Chicago. If you're going to carry that you might as well carry something else wink wink.

Well I could of claimed ignorance, until now.

It's actually Maywood, I will have to look into it.

A quick Google search says it's only illegal to use in an enclosed space with more than 20 people, or while committing a crime.

You got a source?

That reminds me of the time my buddies and I were riding bikes and this fairly large dog came out after one of my buddies. Just as the dog was closing in on his right leg, he hit the cranks hard to shoot forward while hitting the dog with pepper spray. That dog, because he was running went behind the bike and did a barrel roll into the ditch.

It definitely took the fight out of the dog. And come to think of it, he never chased us again.

I also remember a cop friend of mine saying that it will take the fight out of most anyone if you get a shot in their eyes. He remembered one time when they hit this prisoner with a shot to the face and he just plopped down and kinda shook his head. This dude was a BIG dude and hardened by a tough life. But again, it took enough out of him for the officers to get him in cuffs.
