[QUOTE="J.P., post: 475880, member: 6"] I don't like anything less than a 2oz can, but I've never actually tried the little pocket or pen sized ones either so :anyone: Cove vs. Stream... The comments already made are pretty much accurate. With stream you need a better aim, but with cone you have a higher chance of getting it yourself. I feel that this should be of little concern to the user because iMO, you should get sprayed with the stuff youself if you are going to carry it so you know what to expect. I'll admit I've not taken a hit in quite a while now but I used to on a regular basis...maybe every year....and anytime the cops bust one out, I'm invariably somewhere in the path of it. :scratch: I've probably taken more sprays to the face than any average citizen outside the cast of "Jackass", and while it definitely sucks, at no time did I ever lose the ability to fight through it. Again, I believe your ability to withstand it should be regularly tested rather than guessed at. ...that's just my opinion. I don't like foam either and find the others to be more efficient in their delivery. OC will completely incapacitate some people, and others it will have no effect on whatsoever.(for all intents and purposes) I do not carry OC with any degree of enthusiasm towards it's effectiveness. I carry it only to buy time/distance, or to possibly de-escalate a situation. If it turns out to work like an atom bomb on the bad guy...GREAT! But I don't [I]count[/I] on it. [/QUOTE]
