Believe it or not walkers and runners are very susceptible to assaults. Think about it. They usually run in relatively remote areas away from congestion and other people and a lot of runners that I know run at what I consider to be weird times-early a.m. or dusk or later.
There are a lot of products on the market that are designed to help protect them in an assault situation but one of the newest is by Sabre brand called the Runner Spray.
It is a 3/4 ounce container of 10% solution of oleoresin capsicum. It fires a ballistic stream up to 10 feet away and has enough for approximately 35 shots. The ballistic stream is so powerful that it helps reduce wind blow-back. It has a reinforced safety switch that prevents accidental discharge and includes a comfortable and adjustable hand strap. It is available in both pink and black.
It is also very effective against dog attacks.
Sabre brand is noted for its’ increased percentage of Major Capsaicinoids (MC). Many police agencies use a .18% of MC. Saber red is .67% so it is about four times stronger. Can you say OUCH?
