What, if any do you carry?
I carry a small collapsible baton semi regularly. It's on me nearly every time I'm walking my dogs, just in case we encounter a loose dog. Its not part of my edc though. Just curious what everyone else carries, and why. |
| I'm a retired high school teacher, and still attend many athletic events... under Florida law, I am precluded from carrying at these events... I carry a high intensity flashlight... Solar Force L2M with a 650 lumen module... flashed in the eyes, this thing can seriously disorient you |

Just curious what everyone else carries, and why. If something like a pit attacks when you are walking your dog, believe me a baton will do nothing for you. I carry a 1 pound can of Foxlabs pepper spray. I have sprayed 2 charging pits this year and it has stopped them both in their tracks. My backup is a G30 but I hope I never ever have to go that route. A little can of pepper spray is not going to help either. You need the 1 pound crowd control that shoots a fog 30 feet. That does the job. |

I know pepper spray would probably be more effective, but I like that I also have the option of using the baton as a breaker bar in case a dog was to get ahold of my dog. |
