I'm back to carrying pepper-spray (don't get all freaked out ... I still carry guns)

For over three-decades I carried different brands of pepper-spray for personal defense.  Never had to used it on man nor beast.  Sprayed myself a few times, by accident and by trial; the stuff works but is not as incapacitating as many folks believe it to be.  Let me opine that having pepper-spray in a defense situation might be found by many people as being preferable to having nothing but regrets.  





A couple or more years ago I gave away most of my pepper-spray stock to the needy and test fired what had expired.  Recently I decided to resume carrying pepper-spray.  Why did I purchase this particular product this time around?  I discovered that it fit perfectly into an old police belt-carrier that I bought used for $5 a very long time ago.  All of the elastic and plastic holders offered by makers of most of the sprays I had tried earlier were near worthless; they were not durable nor secure.  





Sized for a police duty-belt, this carrier is wobbly but workable on my 1.5'' belt and the belt-loop is quick-on / quick-off via a snap.

Pat. Pend.
(Dunno if these holders are retailed to the public) 

 I wish the leather artisans that craft top quality gun holsters and flashlight holders would do the same for pepper-spray.
