Johnny, you touched upon two very important points: It is very difficult to hit a moving target in such a small area like the eyes. That is precisely why cone spray patterns are recommended for those who aren't going to train. The cone pattern all but eliminates the need for extreme accuracy. It is more affected by wind, but it is worth the trade-off as long as you don't have a pre-existing lung condition.I can say this much about the Sabre 3 in 1 it does not burn the skin. A can deployed in my pocket. Anything around your pocket is tender skin. It did not burn a bit. I was under the influence of Oreo's and milk. I went into the bathroom and started the shower. I picked the bathmat and undressed. Then I got in the shower. The tear gas probably had a good minute to give me any burning sensation. Nothing, nada! It bothered the dog more than me. The dog ran and hid under the bed.
It is not military strength tear gas. I have experienced military tear gas. If it gets on your bare skin you feel it. The tear gas chambers are just strong enough to let you feel it, nothing like a tear gas cannon would produce to disperse a crowd or you need to defend yourself. You would have to hit an attacker dead in the eye to make them feel anything. An experienced street fighter is not going to square up so you can spray them in the face.
I think I will stick to my Buck knife if I have to defend myself or my loved ones without a gun.
Regarding the blended defense sprays. I only recommend pure OC products. In my opinion, (which is based on both experience and an understanding of human physiology) the CS/CN added to these formulas is a step down from pure OC. CS/CN, as it's used in modern defense spray, is useless.
Edit: Love the Oreo line BTW.
