It is always nice to see your name in a major publication, especially when they are taking a look at your products. Our friends over at Athlon Outdoors recently took a look at our HDP 50 Compact pepper dust ball pistol. In case you need a refresher, the HDP 50 Compact launches .50 caliber solid rubber or dust ammo at 360 FPS. This force will hopefully provide both a kinetic and sensory blast to an attacker via the pepper dust and raw impact from the hit. The writer, Tim Stetzer, says of the HDP 50 Compact has “Simplicity by Design” And this is true. For the HDP to be truly effective as a personal protection option, it has to be simple. Simple things are harder to break. Simple things are easy to use. Simple things just perform.

While women are generally more likely to buy pepper gel pistols compared to men, they’re ideal for anyone who is involved in an active lifestyle or lives in a heavily populated area. These compact devices offer a less-lethal form of self-defense that is easy to use and effective. Their concealability and ease of use especially appeal to women who prioritize personal safety but may not like the idea of a lethal weapon for one reason or another—such as being around children, a friend group who are uncomfortable with firearms, or their employer has an anti-firearm policy.

Tennessee’s General Assembly has recently passed and Governor Bill Lee has signed into law HB1909 more popularly known as the Laken Riley Act. This law will allow students on college campuses throughout the state of Tennessee to carry less-lethal self defense products on campus. Included in the list of acceptable devices are aerosol pepper spray, pepper gel, mace, and stun gun type devices. This law was passed in the wake of the death of a Georgia student, Laken Riley, who was attacked, assaulted, and murdered by a violent illegal immigrant from Venezuela, Jose Antonio Ibarra, while jogging on campus at the University of Georgia.

In an era where personal safety is paramount, non-lethal alternatives to firearms are increasingly in demand. Among these, the Prepared 2 Protect® (P2P) pepper ball launcher has garnered attention as a potential tool for de-escalation. This device, which uses high-velocity projectiles filled with a pepper irritant, aims to provide a safer, effective means of self-defense. This article delves into the effectiveness and efficiency of the P2P pepper ball launcher as a de-escalation device, examining its operational features, practical usability, and potential impact on safety.

Well the cat is out of the bag at this point. We’ve been in Vegas for the past week along with the entire Shooting Sports industry talking about our new gear that is slated for release this year.

What is a transitional space? It’s just a fifty-cent word that describes places like parking lots, hallways, courtyards– any place where you are moving from one location to another. Transitional spaces are places where we are vulnerable to predatory criminals doing their work.
