This product does no harm just gives an unpleasant sensation when breathed in!! I live out in the country and walking is my favorite pastime/therapy!! The only problem, several farms I pass have dogs loose and their job is to sound the alarm and then deter trespassers!! Well I am not trespassing, just passing by on my merry way, but one farm in particular has a pack of hounds that like to bark on my heels till I’m well past, so this little pistol is just perfect to let them know they best not get too close to my heels!! One little squirt on the nose and they instantly stop and snort and then look at me like dang girl!! My confidence has soared on my walks since this little pistol comes along discreetly tucked into my legging pocket!! Don’t hesitate, buy today!!

I am very impressed with two things about this item. First, the volume of spray is very good which should help to cover the target quickly without the need to be accurate on the initial trigger pull. The volume of chemical spray is much greater than other pepper spray products that I have purchased. Practicing with the water spray in a closed area sprayed at a wall, the stream has measured 15 ft with plenty of distance remaining. I estimate a full 20 ft of chemical spay is very achievable. If I'm judging the distance accurately, the amount of safety is greatly improved over other sprays that offer 10 to 12' and a very thin stream of irritant which, in turn, requires quicker reaction and accuracy in a stressful situation. Something to think about however, is that this sprayer looks like a firearm which may elicit a quicker response from the "bad guy" who may choose to react quicker than planned using a real firearm without hesitation. A smaller self defense sprayer attached to your keychain may not be noticed at first and may give you adequate defense initially when needed.

So far so good.

Proper size and fit. Make sure to always test with using a short burst to test pepper spray pressure. Then carry for self-defense use.

Strong so make sure to not use indoors unless have to

As others have written, these canisters don't have the black tip that is absolutely essential for their type 1 handgun to function. The illustrated instructions show the tips and say to keep them on for the type 1 gun but to remove them for use in the type 2 handgun. This is totally absurd. Why would you send out a product that won't function without a part that you can't get anywhere else. A good reason to go with another brand. I would have given it no stars if that option were available.

all good
