Is It the Right Fit for You?

Choose It If You Want

• A small, lightweight spray you can clip to a belt or attach to keys

Pepper Shot Pepper Spray Features and Benefits

• 1.2% Major Capsaicinoids: The active ingredient that determines actual heat intensity — 1.2% MC is a meaningful, effective concentration for a personal defense spray.
• 2 Million Scoville Heat Units: A high-heat formula that causes immediate irritation to the eyes, skin, and respiratory system on contact.
• Stream Spray Pattern: Delivers a focused stream rather than a wide mist, which helps reduce the risk of blowback affecting you in outdoor or breezy conditions.
• 6–10 One-Second Bursts at 6–8 Feet: Enough range to create distance and enough bursts to matter in a real situation.
• Quick-Release Keychain: The keychain detaches cleanly so you’re not wrestling with keys when you need your hands free.
• Belt Clip Included: Carry it on your waistband for instant access — no bag required.
• UV Dye: Leaves a visible mark on an attacker that can help with identification afterward.

Care and What’s Included

What’s in the Box

• Pepper Shot Pepper Spray, 0.5 oz, black
• Belt clip
• Keyring
• Quick-release keychain

Care

Store the canister away from heat and direct sunlight. Check the safety cap regularly to make sure it’s seated securely. Pepper spray has a shelf life — note the manufacture or expiration date on the canister and replace it before it expires. The UV dye is built into the formula, so no separate handling is needed.

Legal Notes

Pepper spray is legal to own and carry in most U.S. states, but some states, cities, and specific locations restrict the formula strength, canister size, or who can carry it. Check your state and local laws before you buy or carry. Laws change, so verify current rules in your area.

Pepper Shot Pepper Spray: Frequently Asked Questions

What does 1.2% major capsaicinoids mean in the Pepper Shot Pepper Spray?

Major capsaicinoids (MC) measure the actual concentration of the compounds that cause the burning, inflammatory reaction. It’s a more precise indicator of heat intensity than Scoville units alone. At 1.2% MC and 2 million SHU, this formula is in a strong range for a personal defense spray. The effect hits eyes, skin, and the respiratory system on contact.

How many times can you spray the Pepper Shot Pepper Spray?

The 0.5 oz canister delivers 6–10 one-second bursts at a range of 6–8 feet. That’s enough for a real encounter. Don’t use up the canister practicing — familiarize yourself with the safety cap and grip, but save the formula. Once it’s empty, replace it. Don’t carry an empty or near-empty canister and assume you’re covered.

What is the difference between a stream spray and a mist or fogger?

A stream pattern shoots a concentrated line of formula toward the target, similar to a water gun. A mist or fogger disperses a wider cloud. The stream pattern used in this spray gives you more directional control and reduces the chance that wind carries the formula back toward you. It requires more accurate aim than a fogger, so point it deliberately at the face.

Is the Pepper Shot Pepper Spray legal to carry where I live?

Pepper spray is permitted in most U.S. states, but restrictions vary — some states cap canister size, formula strength, or buyer age, and some locations like courthouses or schools prohibit it entirely. This canister is 0.5 oz with 1.2% MC. Look up your specific state and local ordinances before purchasing or carrying. When in doubt, check with a local law enforcement agency or attorney.
