Do you carry pepper spray when you carry your firearm?

This Guy says:

So when dude says gun give away what he actually means is money equal to the value of a gun. . .if they "give" a gun away it still has to go through an FFL. So calm down snowflakes guns are not just floating off this mans videos. He is not pulling an Oprah "a gun for you a gun for you everybody gets a gun". . .thats not how it works.

JonDavid1776🇺🇸 says:

Definitely carry a alternative to just a gun, not everyone needs a bullet.

James Child says:

Gel pepper spray not as likely it'll get in your eyes! 👍🏼

d84d84 says:

will USCCA Elite Membership drop me when I need it like uscca did with Kayla Giles????????

Nate2real says:

Fox is the most effective

Paul Critchfield says:

I make my own with mustard seeds. It is wicked!

Joe Harmon says:

If not a gun I would suggest pepper gel.
Either way carry something cause people be crazy.

Paul Critchfield says:

If it was mustard gas spray it be good but pepper spay can fail you

Valerie says:

Will uscca Help me on self defense if I can't get to my firearm and I use my knife to the a knife to defend myself

Aftun says:

I totally agree. If it's just a hard word the pepper spray is a good idea then, but if it's a real threat we should draw our firearms.

Freki Bodgaedir says:

Plenty of exp with spray here. If somebody has decided he is going to 'kill' you, the spray will only blind him and hamper his efforts.

He can still punch, stab or club you in your head for sure.

Ie. 2 thugs were fighting PJ MMA and I hosed both down. Me and my friend were coughing but they were still fighting.

Also, in the big cities where the cops like to arrest victims who fight back, is it useful to call them after?

Bear Allen says:

Pepper gel is a lot more effective. It lessens the chance of blowing back on you. Technically at work I’m not supposed to carry anything classified as a weapon.

Tony L says:

Chuck Haggard has established himself as an authority on pepper spray for self-defense. He does not recommend the gel because it takes longer to take effect.

David In Texas says:

I carry stream. Gel typically takes longer to work on the perp, so beware!

The Olive Boyzz says:

Great video. Love this channel

ChocoBear says:

I can attest to the effectiveness of FOX 5.3 Used it in the security field years ago and it is VERY VERY strong.

I have an Amazon subscription for gel stream pepper spray that I have given to all female kinfolk and to any friends/female acquaintances as I have extras in hand. My sister, finding one in Mom’s dresser, stupidly triggered it. My brother and I were rolling on the floor but she was not of the same mind as we were!!! 😵‍💫😂😉

Pork money says:

Spray the chili…hot and delicious

Justice100 Wil says:

Yea well, one night my abusive husband was getting ready to attack me once again, I emptied out that whole container of pepper spray out on his a**, he was running, screaming and crying all around the house👍😂😂. The Police arrived and took me to jail😢😢😡.. I guess the police liked it better when I called them with black eyes and bruises. They call Wisconsin a woman's state yea right. That's why his rotten butt is now my ex-husband👍.

rmp5s says:

Pepper spray is a very low level of force, too. It's even lower than punching someone. You punch someone, you can split their lip, knock their tooth out, etc…if you spray someone, they're perfectly fine in an hour or so. Very low level of force. I recommend EVERYONE carry some. It's super cheap and can be a low risk option legally speaking.

chuck bert says:

I always carry OC and surely would have it when carrying a firearm for a less than lethal option. I buy new every two years and spray the old and have had blowback on me and that was nasty. I use the stream to minimize contamination.

Sonny Belga says:

Fox 5.3 – the GOAT of OC spray!

Dr. E. R. Blomgren says:

Yes, both OC gel and CCP.
