SABRE Pepper Spray, Quick Release Keychain for Easy Carry and Fast Access, Finger Grip for More Accurate and Faster Aim, Maximum Police Strength OC Spray, 0.54 fl oz, Secure and Easy to Use Safety

I ordered this stuff for my wife, as we have a new neighbor in the area we live in who is really being over friendly toward her. Unfortunately he will not approach her when I am around, so I made the investment. To help her gain some confidence in her device, I let her test it on me...Do not do as I did.To give you some background, I am a career military soldier, with 4 deployments to Iraq. After my last tour I took a job as a bodyguard. I am also a patron of concerts and clubs. Suffice it to say I've been exposed to some of the best crowd control in the business.You have about 5 to 10 seconds of coherance (barely) after contact, and after that, your only concern is pain. Even with my prior experiance, I was completely incapacitated. If I were an earnest attacker, this would deter my attack immediately. My wife is not a trained combatant, and she hit me with a glancing spray across my cheek and that was enough to stop me. (Ideally one would draw a line from ear to ear for max. effect)There is no quick cure for the pain, as is the case with most OC sprays. Even with the coolit spray which is intended to reduce the effects, you are still out of action for at least 30 minutes.Some tips when using this product.-TEST YOUR PRODUCT WHEN YOU OPEN IT!!! There is a 1 in 5000 chance that your device may be defective. Go outside and spray a few lines downwind just to be sure it will not fail you in that critical moment.-AFTER YOU SPRAY someone, LEAVE THE AREA IMMEDIATELY. If you stay, your assailant may go into a rage which not even OC spray can stop. If you decide to take the fight to the attacker, then you risk losing your right to self defense and crossing over to getting an assault charge. Just go. When you are safely gone, call the police and inform them of the situation. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT-AFTERCARE IS CRITICAL. After you spray someone, you must call an ambulance. If your attacker or anyone who may have been caught up in the spray as well is asthmatic or has allergies you could wind up killing them. That is grounds for a manslaughter charge at least.-IF YOU SPRAY YOURSELF, that really sucks. There is no quick fix. Find a safe location and wait it out. Use soap and water to rinse yourself repeatedly and allow air to get to the affected area. Expect to be out of action for an hour. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU ALLOW THIS STUFF TO COME IN CONTACT WITH YOUR HANDS. Your hands are the primary means for spreading contamination, and if you spray your pocket, and then scratch your head, you will know. Also, go ahead and trash those clothes you were wearing, this stuff can contaminate an entire load of laundry.Hopefully you will never have to use this stuff on anybody. It is truely hell. The best defense is paying attention to what you are doing, the way you are presenting yourself, and avoiding uneasy situations.This review is in no way intended to be subsituted for legal advice.

I'm just writing this review because I was assaulted last night by my roommate and was fortunate enough to have the Sabre spray on hand. I was feeling very threatened and so kept my hand on the trigger as he threatened and shouted, and when he attacked me all it took was two quick sprays and he was completely incapacitated. He couldn't inflict any damage on me even though he is a bodybuilder and MUCH bigger than me. The only problem is that when I sprayed it he was tackling me and so some of the spray hit me. I was probably hit with only 10% of the spray but I can tell you it was TERRIBLE. It was so powerful that the cops couldn't stay in the house for long because of the residual in the air. So maybe next time I'll practice shooting it more. In sum, the Sabre spray saved me from definite injury and I cannot be more satisfied with this product. I will feel much safer now holding it.

As Described - soon after it arrived, lightly 2 second-tested it up in to the air - spray-pressure is light, reaches about 4 feet - it does not leave a stain on the floor/carpet.Reaction after having tested it, did give me a bit of a cough.Have not tried it on an intruder just yet (no time time to reach for it) - yet we've had some unlawful entry-violations (I live in Mexico).Found the nozzle busted a month or so after purchase (have never used it on anyone)... highly likely an intrusion happened without me realizing at which point they broke in and busted my pepper spray and also other items in that same drawer where I keep it.It no longer works as it should.Would buy again, per safety concerns; history of break-ins in this neighborhood (this town in general). Thanks, very affordable price!

I really trust the SABRE brand, when you buy their products, you know you’re getting high quality and something you can rely on in life-threatening situations. Thankfully, I’ve never had to use it in an emergency, but I did a test spray and was impressed by how far and consistent the stream was.I love that it includes UV marking for suspect identification and that the safety mechanism is thoughtfully designed, easy to use when needed, but secure enough to prevent accidental discharge. It’s sleek, compact, and clearly built with care. SABRE really put serious thought into making this a life-saving tool.

Este pulverizador de pimienta Sabre Red Key es una herramienta de defensa personal que cumple su función principal. El anillo de liberación rápida es una característica inteligente que facilita tenerlo listo en caso de necesidad, y el alcance de 10 pies brinda una distancia segura. Las 25 ráfagas prometidas parecen suficientes para múltiples usos o para disuadir una amenaza persistente.La razón por la que no le doy cinco estrellas es que, aunque el tamaño compacto es conveniente para llevarlo en el llavero, podría sentirse un poco pequeño en la mano en una situación de estrés. Además, aunque la marca Sabre Red es conocida por su potencia de grado policial, preferiría tener una indicación más clara o un mecanismo de seguridad adicional para evitar una activación accidental en el bolsillo o bolso.

I prefer this type of pepper spray that features a side-to-side lock/unlock lever, because it's much easier for my short, stubby thumbs to depress the lever. It is comfortable to hold with finger grips, and the detachable key ring is a nice option, although I usually attach my pepper spray to a flexible spiral wrist coil/bracelet. Unlike other sprays that I have had, this one has the expiration date clearly stamped on it (convenient), and of course I like the lavender color!
