Pepper spray

[Bonnox]

Jus wondered what people think about pepper spray as a deterrent ? I can make the liquid easily with EXTREMELY hot chillies, but am trying to think of a delivery system which would work, it's easy enough to put in a hand spray but that only has a small range of about a meter I was wanting/hoping to get to about 8-10 feet or more, any ideas ?

I am sure that pepper spray would be as good after an event as it is today, it would certainly make people back off if its made well,... there has been several threads on it and most people I think like the idea

I like the idea. Non-Lethal, and buys time to run, or incapacitates and buys time to 'eliminate' the threat.

As for delivery method, you'd need something reliable, but that can also provide a constant 'stream' of the stuff. Watergun sounds best to me, but still hugely impractical.

This is the kind of item people are likely to 'Black Ops' prep, and not home brew and bottle. Good thinking though mate.

post event would be useful to have, pre event they are illegal, mate of mine got one and was prosecuted for it.

This is obviously a purely hypothetical thread obviously as it is completely illegal to use or own any type of pepper spray, I merely currently have some chillie sauce and am talking post shtf.
My chillies are bhut jolokia, or ghost chill is, apparently the second hottest chilli in the world, Indian security forces use them in their pepper spray and smoke grenades.
My first thought was a water pistol but they are wholly unreliable, iv heard somewhere of some chillie type products in paintballs, gives you the same kind of effect with a hell of a lot more punch, I would definitely be thinking twice if I got hit in the face with a paintball full of chilli pepper juice

Nice idea, but you'd have to keep the marker fully loaded and any potential breaks in the hopper could really cause you some problems. Should be doable though. I'd just try and Black Ops it, if it was an option I was looking at.
