The best pepper spray! September 28, 2007 R. Detky (Jacksonville, Florida United States) 41 out of 48 found this review helpful
Knock on wood, I've never had to use this, but it is my favorite pepper spray canister I've ever had. It doesn't have an awkard case, like several of the other brands, and has a patented design where you cannot spray it, unless you are intentionally trying to do so. (It won't happen on accident) Its very slim, and almost attractive, unlike big bulky ones I've had in the past. Fits perfectly on my key ring. It really does make me feel safer. If I'm in a situtation where I feel uncomfortable, I just hold onto it, I don't have to worry about undoing a snap or anything. Highly recommend it!!

I will say I got this for my Daughter at college and it worked! She was out with friends and was approached by a stranger. Lets just say, a quick spray and she got away. The police captured the guy shortly after!
Thank you for having this available to me and my daughter

I carry this on my dogs leash for when we go walking or hiking.
Unfortunately, I've had to use it in a park setting due to people who ignore the posting that the park is not an off leash park. The dog was large (~80lbs) and attacked me and my dog (20lbs) because the owner had NO control over her animal. I sprayed into its muzzle/face and it stopped in its tracks, giving me and my dog time to get away. Works well, and I won't be out without it.
Saved my son at college October 24, 2008 contractor man (New England USA) 20 out of 24 found this review helpful
Gave this to my son at college, there were some issues around campus. He was coming home from a night class when he was approached by a drunk man who demanded his wallet. My son had this in his hand as he was walking back to him dorm. A quick point and spray, and the drunk was down for the count. My son got away and campus security caught the guy shortly after. Turned out this was the same guy was giving trouble to many people. Thank you, thank you, thank you
Great design for women February 25, 2009 Melinda Green 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I'm buying a replacement for my first one and would like to say that I've been very happy with my last one. I never needed to use it, so I can't give the ultimate review but I will say that I appreciated every little design touch that went into the spitfire. I love that you can shoot from the hip and not have to make a threatening gesture to use it. I also love the thumb release that can't catch on a nail. I was really nervous to buy something that felt dangerous but the practice canister really helped as now I feel I know what it will do and how close I'll need to be to use it effectively. I can also testify that it's never gone off accidentally even though it knocked around in my purse and on my keychain for years until it simply fell apart.
Perhaps most important, I felt much more confident than I would have felt in many situations just knowing that I had this back-up protection. That might have even made me safer than if I might have been if people would have been able to detect my fear.
My only negative comment is that I'm sad that it only comes in two serious-looking colors. There used to be a couple pastel options and as a style junkie I really appreciated that. Still, I recommend the spitfire for anyone.
