In my FSDUC courses one of the most common questions I get is, “Should I carry pepper spray.” Â For me the answer is pretty simple. Â Of course. Â Today let’s take a quick look at why and just a few of the MANY factors we need to consider.
Benefits of OC

- Inexpensive
- Simple to use
- Can be a very effective tool
- Can be carried many places where a gun cannot be legally carried
Considerations
- Pepper spray is an intermediate weapon
- Pepper spray isn’t 100%
