Nobody’s right till somebody’s wrong
Nobody’s weak till somebody’s strong
- Gallantry Man Legend Eric Clapton, “It’s in the Way That You Use It”

You can’t spell “self-defense” without “everyday carry”.

“It’s me! Jessica!”

Well, actually you can (you definitely can), but that’s neither here nor there at the moment. What is, however, is the fact that pepper spray is a superb, non-lethal way to everyday carry your self-defense.

“Gross! You don’t have any everyday carry from Gallantry on you!”

Our personal go-to pepper spray here at Gallantry Headquarters (that’s Gallantry HQ for all you newcomers) is none other than the Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray. This is for a multitude of reasons. It’s small (i.e. super convenient, so you can take this little dude anywhere), highly effective (a potent deterrent, a quick blast of this sucker can literally disable an attacker from a distance as far as 10 feet), and, best of all, we’re now carrying it right here at Gallantry!

“Hands off my everyday carry Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray from Gallantry, Definitely-Not-A-Gallantry Man! This one is mine!”

The bottom line here is that if you’re in the market for some real deal pepper spray (and, let’s just be honest here, why wouldn’t you be?) – either because you’re concerned with self-defense, but simply can’t or don’t want to carry a gun or knife, or you already carry a weapon for your self-defense, but just wouldn’t mind having an additional non-lethal personal safety alternative on you as well - Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray is the pepper spray EDC that you’ve been looking for.

“AHH!!! I’m sorry! You just looked so cool and prepared with your newest piece of EDC!”

Our “guide” to pepper spray couldn’t be simpler. It’s just one item. You see, we’ve searched far and wide to find the best of the best, and, in the end, the best is the compact, powerful, far-reaching, Made in the USA (duh!) Pocket Pepper Spray from Mace®.

“Back off, buddy! I get my everyday carry personal protection from Gallantry! Yeah, that’s right! I’m talking about that caliente-in-your-eyes pepper spray, son!”

WHY PEPPER SPRAY?

If you’re on the fence about whether or not you should carry pepper spray on you, the time to climb down from that bad boy is now. You want to be prepared, don’t you?

Not to get all doom and gloom, but last fall the FBI announced via its 2020 Uniform Crime Reporting data that murders were up 29.4% nationally from 2019, while the CDC found that homicides were up 30%. In other words, homicides, as well as motor vehicle thefts, have shot through the roof in pretty much every large city. In fact, by the first week of December, at least 12 major U.S. cities had actually broken their annual homicide records. In case you’re wondering, that’s double the growth of the worst year previously recorded, 1968. Meanwhile, the number of arrests nationwide has absolutely plummeted .

What does all this mean to you, you ask? It means you need to protect yourself. Your body is a temple and we won’t hear otherwise.

At the very least, carrying pepper spray can’t hurt you. You’ll never regret not having it on you, as it provides seriously powerful defense when you may be least expecting to need it. American cops carry pepper spray on them as a force alternative for good reason. The stuff works.

Your safety is paramount and you just never know when you’ll need to scare the bejesus out of some scumbag (or maybe even scumbags). As such, you can never be too ready. That’s why the best thing the Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray has going for it, in addition to the fact that you can latch it onto your stylish (assuming you made your purchase(s) at Gallantry) everyday carry bag and/or keychain, is that the remarkably easy-to-use product delivers instant results when it comes to stopping any garbage would-be assailant in their tracks. If you’re particularly alert when duty calls, that’s even better. With the advantage that comes from having the early drop on some lowlife, you can literally knock that POS out from a mind-blowing 10 feet away!

Ditch the worry. Lose the fear. Level up your confidence. Live your life.

“Oh boy. I should’ve seen this one coming. This is what I get for not reading every article on Gallantry, isn’t it?”

WHAT IS ACTUALLY IN PEPPER SPRAY?

Great question. We love where your head is at.

“AHHH!!! I swear that I’ll read every single article on the Gallantry site the second one comes out from now on! I promise! I want to! It’s just that I’ve been really busy and it slipped my mind – but no more! Okay? I know I definitely deserve this, but … ahhhh!! Please stop spraying me!!! It really hurts!”

Pepper spray is a chemical irritant (an oil, to be more precise) made from oleoresin capsicum (capsicum is a chemical commonly found in peppers, hence the name “pepper spray”). When said irritant comes into contact with some miscreant, it will aggravate their senses them to no end (without, you know, permanently disfiguring them or killing them), causing them excruciating pain, excessive watering of the eyes, momentary blindness, hot and reddened skin, breathing trouble, coughing, an inability to speak, all by way of capillary dilation, for at least 30 minutes.

“Haven’t you ever listened to Eric Clapton, bro? “It’s in the Way That You Use It!”

HOW DO YOU USE PEPPER SPRAY PROPERLY?

Point and spray is the name of the game when it comes to using Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray.

“I didn’t understand the lyrics to the song! I’m sorry! Please stop spraying me with that insanely effective Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray that you bought from Gallantry!”

Simply draw your unit, unlock the safety locking mechanism (which exists in order to help prevent unintentional discharges), and spray it as best you can directly in that scoundrel’s eyes in a back-and-forth motion (if you should for any reason have multiple attackers, you’re going to want to make your spraying pattern even wider). Meanwhile, if you want to really drop the hammer on this perp, continue spraying at the nose and mouth.

Yeah. It really is in the way that you use it.

“I SHOULD’VE NEVER TRIED FUNNY BUSINESS ON SOMEONE THAT GETS THEIR EDC FROM GALLANTRY!!!”

Meanwhile, once you’ve fully jacked up this hypothetical slimebag’s grill, make your escape, find safety, and call 911.

It would be our recommendation that you also consider the when and the how when it comes to your potential pepper spray usage. With its elastic handle, the Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray is particularly efficient for jogs, walks, or runs, scenarios wherein carrying more aggressive forms of self-defense (i.e. the deadly kind) on your person is not only less than ideal, but unnecessary.

Lastly, never (ever) forget to replace or refill your pepper spray after each use.

“Don’t threaten me! Or I’ll use it!”

A FINAL WORD ON PEPPER SPRAY

Look it. These are strange times. As the homicide rate continues to rise across the country, protecting yourself, whether you’re a Gallantry Man or a Gallantry Woman, has never been more important.

Since you don’t need any kind of license to own potentially lifesaving pepper spray, it’s a no-brainer to have, at the very least, one of these preemptive strikes on your person. Economical, remarkably lightweight, unbelievably effective, incredibly easy-to-carry (not to mention travel-friendly), and compatible with other self-defense weapons, pepper spray is simply a must-have in your everyday carry arsenal.

Get yourself some well-deserved piece of mind already, would you? Get yourself the must-own personal protection sidekick that is the Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray from Gallantry today!

“Are you frickin’ nuts?! This isn’t even Mace® Pocket Pepper Spray from Gallantry! You need to step your EDC game up BIG TIME!”
