A few pages back someone mentioned pepper spray.
Ive used it when confronting some violent people attacking a man lying on the ground having his head stamped on. The attackers, of whom there were several were all physically larger than me.... and Im 6ft and weigh 190lbs... in fact one of them (the one armed with a big piece of wood he was using to bash the poor victim with!) appeared to enjoy steriods with every meal.
The spray worked immediately and they ran off (rather than turning on me.....thankfully!) and were apprehended later. One of them didnt run that far as he couldn't see very well. All in all its not bad stuff and in the UK its illegal for civilians to own.
However, i'd rather not have to rely on it to confront a gun toting loon or a bear. Frankly were I live both situations are unlikely. Though the badgers can be quite angry.....
Anyhoo, back the very original post. Good work on the skeet shooting that man! If only I was half as good with my shotgun.....
