- Special Thanks to Addie, a friend of our TR family, for volunteering to spray Imri.
An even BIGGER "THANKS" to Imri, for taking this spray so all of you at home can see this.
I have a few "take away" bits of wisdom that I want all of you to take away from this video:
1. Note how quickly Imri closed the distance on Addie. She already had her finger on the trigger (safety off); she sprayed him solidly in the face, and he STILL reached her. If he wanted her purse, he got it. If he wanted to stab her, he stabbed her. If he wanted to pick her up and toss her in the waiting van, she got tossed in the van. Pepper Spray sucks to be sprayed with, but it is not immediately incapacitating like the Taser is.
2. Note how Imri was able to shoot accurately after being sprayed. If you are ever sprayed by pepper spray by someone with criminal or malicious intent, you fight through and you beat that ass. It will feel like the surface of the sun in your eyes. However, the temperature is actually room temperature. You CAN fight through it. You have to reach down deep inside and get mad at the pain. Scream like Imri if it will help you get there. You fight because you and YOUR FAMILY will depend on it.
3. Note how limp the stream was, when Imri sprayed it at the steel target. You get what you pay for. Better Pepper Spray Launchers (like the Kimber) cost more money, but are worth it. Whichever version you buy, like Imri said, BUY TWO of them so you can practice.
4. Note how the aftermath even made me gag and cough. The mist got all over me. You'll see me deliberately NOT touching my eyes, for fear of making it worse. For my law enforcement guys out there; understand that if you hose a guy down with this stuff; before you toss him in the back of your cruiser, ensure that you have turned the Air Conditioning & fan off on the dash. Best bet: put him in your buddy's car.
These videos are fun to watch, but I still want you to take the teaching points away also. Knowledge is power. Knowledge can be your best Weapon. Strength & Honor, TR.

“I love ya brother....spray him some more.....I feel bad for you bro.” Who needs a friend like Karl?
All of us.
Karl for President would be to good to be true!
If you got one, you don’t need enemies
Karl is "the Men" :)
Best one was "are you ready to go wash your eyes? THREAT!" 🤣
When I got sprayed, it felt like someone poured gasoline on my face and lit it on fire. Some advice: be sure to wash pepper spray off your hands before using the restroom.
Very important. Had a veteran, turned cop buddy as a roommate a while back and after I agreed to get pepper sprayed by him, after 35 mins of pain, the shower part was the worst. WASH YOUR HANDS. THROW YOUR CLOTHES IN THE WASH, AND DONT TOUCH YOUR SENSITIVE AREAS.
lol This! Words of wisdom garnered by personal experience. The most valuable words of wisdom. 😆
OOOWWWWW!!!!
And when you're showering afterwards be mindful of where the run off is going. Lead forward.
What brand/model did you get sprayed with?
I was an MP for many years and I much rather ride the lighting than feel the burn any day. That being said if the attacker has felt it before (and if the attacker may be strung out on something) he/she will have a better chance of continuing the attack. Something to keep in mind, if you can fight through it so can your attacker. So once that person has gone down, get out of the area before they even know what happened.
Thatoneguy overthere "Distance is your friend".
This video shows exactly why you should be carrying a firearm for self defense. A determined attacker can fight through almost anything. So chose the most realistic defense that will have the highest chance of success in stopping someone intent on hurting you.
As someone who recently had full face exposure in training, this video leads me to believe the quality of the OC spray will make a great difference in it's effectiveness. With the military grade spray that we used, once the spray got fully into your eyes the only way to see for at least 45 minutes would be to physically pry your eyelids open as the pain caused involuntary closure. Just something to take into consideration.
Yup we use law enforcement grade oc and when I got sprayed during training there wasn’t shit I could do for 45 minutes just sat on the ground and suffered
Best part was when you bait Imri into almost taking off his ear pro by offering some sympathy and then proceed to call more threats.. He really showed us what he's made of.
Great lesson Karl. Thank you both. And Addie too :)
This is one of the most composed people I have ever seen get sprayed.
Any body else feel like they're watching Norm Macdonalds brother?
It's Tactical Norm McDonald
Norm MacDonalds tough , more serious brother .LOL
Do you remeber 9/11?
Imri deserves a Purple Heart. This seriously was a great video and was great for deciding which non-lead option to choose. Thanks, Imri!!!
I'm just waiting for the footage of the Tactical Rifleman Christmas party where Jason and Imri finally initiate their payback to Karl (who was laughing just a liiiittttlllle bit too hard at this)!!!!
Lol Karl sure did have a nice happy grin on his face and sure did laugh a lot at the end of the video 😆
Funny Stuff for sure.
Carl's laughing because he's the old guy who's been sprayed more times than he cares to count, and now it's the next generation's turns.
I'd like to see that
Thank you, Imri, for getting that done, and showing that we can still function afterwards, if necessary !!!
Keep up the great work, Guys !!!
9:15 "I feel bad for ya dude" 😂
Thank you Imri. I carry OC as an extra option to lethal but this is a great demo for other family members who cannot carry too. Shows that it really works on big guys. This is good for building confidence for the damsels too. Thanks again.
Karl check out Fox OC spay. Sabre is only about 2 million Scoville heat units, where as Fox is 5.3 million! Works incredibly well.
I have been a corrections officer for over 20 years and have used pepper spray many times it only works about half the time so make sure you have a plan for when it fails
Now, that is taking one for the team! I used to work at a place that made OC and CS (the Hoppe's people) and accidentally nailed myself once. Not as bad as a couple other guys did, but it DOES suck!
Thanks you Imri, for literally taking one for the team. Glad you used the cheaper stuff because that’s all a lot of ordinary people ever bother to carry. I hope folks watching know that in the beginning scenario that Addie would have never stood a chance at that distance if it were a real attack; that was really even too close for realistic gun defense without some sort of hand to hand technique first to create some distance.
When selecting OC, look for the percentage of major capsaicinoids (%MC), on the label. The higher the percentage, the stronger it is.
Yes
Reminded me of the N.B.C training I did when I was in the service, stuck a bunch of us in a brick shed and set off some CS pellets.....pukearama to the max ! 🤢🤮
Those were fun times. Talk about snot running out of your nose
Yeah, the gas chamber was always fun, not. Until we built one at the range, when the Marines came to qualify we got to run them through it while they were here, now that was fun.
Yeah, but my sinuses were clear for weeks after that. LOL
@@jimmybarker5955 ain't that the truth!
@@jimmybarker5955 remember going back to the barracks to shower and the steam re-activated the CS crystals. lol
This video was awesome. You could tell that Karl was seriously trying to keep from cracking up. I remember the first time I got sprayed. He ain't lying, it SUCKED but he is 100% right, you can fight through it. I messed up and accidentally rubbed my eyes while driving home and had to fight through it to keep from running off the road and dying.
Too True. I had the same problem driving back to the hotel once after a class.
"Where you going with this Carl?" He He. Way to take one for the team, Imri!
Thanks for taking one for the team Imri!
Props to your guest for taking it to the face!
In boot camp, we were marched into a building with tear gas in it (told to hold our breath). When all inside we were given the command to "gas mask". We reached for them, put them on, cleared them and could walk out. It was stout stuff. Some threw up. All had burning eyes and labored breathing. Of course, tear gas is different stuff but....
Been sprayed multiple times at work. Don’t rub your eyes. Try to air them out. Luckily it was a chilly day, do that shit in middle of summer and it’s much worse.
LOL! Brought back great memories!😭😭😭 Just a reminder, OC goes to work as it dries. Over hosing may make the effects take longer to evaporate and take longer to become effective.
Never heard that. Are you sure? TR
Tactical Rifleman That was the consensus from the instructors at the time in our classes back in the 90's. Seemed to be the case in the field too from what I saw. Subject hosed down with a tremendous amount took longer to respond to the spray than a good solid dose. But, just like shooting, if your gonna shoot them once, their worth shooting again! LOL guess you could always test the theory on "Z"!
In training always remember to keep at least arms length away from the target when using OC, ideally 6ft. This is because a direct shot to the eye can cause lasting damage. Also worth mentioning the most common mistake for people using OC in real world situations is to cover the nozzle with their finger by accident. I always suggest getting a bigger OC spray to help prevent this as the really small ones are actually very hard to use in a real situation. Some trainers advocate getting your pinky under the can to ensure your hand is far enough down. Others say don't use your thumb as this can lead your index finger up to the nozzle. HTH.
Getting sprayed in academy was one of my least favorite days I've ever had.
You need to release this one again and remarket it somehow my god this was fun to watch.
He's a real sport for taking this one for boss
I have been asking myself if I should put Cayenne pepper into my eyes regularly in order to become immune...
Great video as always guys. Buttermilk works great... watch out while taking a shower afterwards :)
Much rather be pepper sprayed. You get used to it and you can fight thru it without too much problem. Taser shuts you down instantly and you feel like you just had the most grueling gym workout ever! Oh yeah, and the sensation of being hit in the back by a baseball bat! All good stuff
Been a US law shield member for a few months, haven't had to use it. Thank God, but the local lawyer is a bulldog. Feels good to know I have people In my corner, incase the worst day happens.
Sabre Red I highly recommend 👍🏼
In high school I was pepper sprayed multiple times for my Criminal Justice elective and oh boy does it hurt. Tear gas also sucked. I preferred being wrestled around and even tased to pepper spray.
On another note I used your code for the self defense insurance. As of today I'm a member of US Lawshield and that code is saving me some change. Thank you guys for that code and I hope all y'all never have to use it!
Awesome
You have to move after spraying the target, that stuff will effect you if you remain too close.
Tip from LE mix no tears baby shampoo and water in a spray bottle and spray it into your eyes
Great tip!
Instructor Zee.....Um, uh....Karl...I uh gotta take the wife to the doctor today. I'll be in tomorrow.
Karl's like, come on dude! It ain't that bad. Get up shoot somethin'.
What a trooper, Karl you had way too much fun! Keep up the great work!
I did enjoy this one. TR
I didn't comment earlier but I just wanted to say thanks to Imri for stepping up. It means more for training and understanding from our perspective to see what actually happens.
Great job and loads of fun for the entire family! I remember going through the CS room in basic. Instructors said upon exiting, to run 2 laps with arms extended and eyes open. I ran 4 and it still sucked lol
Great memories of the Chamber!!! Thanks for sharing. TR
after seeing that, you guys are the best
Brings back great OC training memories.
Got to give a lot of credit to Imri for taking one for the TR team! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Not all OC is created equal, and it's not regulated to a consistent standard.
The consensus is that you want something with a Major Capsicanoid Content of 1.2%+
The most consistent and respected brands are ASP, POM, and Sabre Red.
The gas station stuff can be weak and inconsistent.
Unless it's propellant or active agent, I'm not interested in it being in my OC (dyes, etc)
It's not necessarily going to be a fight stopper, but it's better than an empty handed eye jab, and the threshold of using OC is generally a lot lower than using deadly force.
Only thing I would add is that you should aim to strafe from ear to ear, not from the a zone and up. Other than that it’s an extremely good demonstration. If you’re using spray for defense you need to keep in mind this will slow down but not stop your attacker so it’s extremely important to get off the x!
Tear gas really sucks . US ARMY loved to do us twice a year so we never forgot how crappy it was but yes you can fight threw it.
CS is much worse than OC.
😂 oh man I remember that feeling this video deserves 2 👍👍
I have been bear spray as well. Infact it took 10 min shut my eyes .
People also need to know that some people it also has no affect on some people.
Americans, you're such tough guys it is awesome.
Look so painful I washed out my own eyes just to be safe
look at the schnozzer on that israeli guy 😭
One of the things I tell my people when I’m training them is the aftermath the user. Often the bad guy is already coming forward so they make contact. That means your now exposed as well especially if you have to grapple. So going home you don’t stop at the store, you don’t pick up the kids etc because you will expose everyone. Put a plastic bag in the seat and throw it in the outside garbage can at home. Go straight to the washer and strip down using only cold water. Then take a cold shower keeping the water from running down to your netherregions. Stay safe
A lot to learn from this. Pepper spray will probably not stop your attacker. He’ll be able to do just about anything that he planned just not as quickly. You should practice transition drills from OC spray to your gun because he’s still a deadly threat. Thank TR and a special thanks to Imri.
Been sprayed several times. In basic and in police training. Pepperspray works eventually... About 2% of people just blink through it. About 50% of people curl up in the fetal position within 3 seconds. But yeah, you can control your breathing and fight through it...
I think when you are mentally prepared to be sprayed it helps. A person that’s been unexpectedly hosed in the face will be out of the game long enough for the other person to get away or attack you if they are on offense. At any rate if you’re in a fight with someone and you spray them you better be prepared to still fight for at least the next 10-15 seconds before the attacker starts to give in. And last, DUMP THAT ENTIRE CANISTER ON HIM! Consider these things one use only.
From my experience from thirty years of being a Firefighter/ Paramedic. Pepper spray works great as long as the perpetrator isn't on drugs such as PCP or methamphetamine's .
Nice job guys! As always👍
You rock!
I carry a 4oz can of pepper enforcement along w/ a good steel 🔪 & 9mm 12+1 if needed 🌶 spray is more than enough. I carry such a big can because there can be multiple attackers. Badass video BTW wow impressive all the way around
Cold steel 🔪 don't you just love how the phone changes the words? Lol btw I can't believe these DEMONcrats want to take the guns from "we the people" thank God for Donald Trump no 1 is perfect but I think he's doing a damn good job... 🇺🇸 Trump 2Q2Q🇺🇸
Hehe Karl, I'm diggin' your fatherly duties. I have three little girls of my own and can't imagine their teenage and young 20's.
P.S.- Thank you for your sacrifice Imri. 😁👍🍻
1990 I was selling OC spray on the campus I attended. This was before it was readily available at Walmart.
One night I was giving a pitch/demonstration at a sorority which included me getting sprayed. Yeah, it sucked. But the thing that I wasn't prepared for was the smell. It smelled GOOD! The smell reminded me of being at the beach and smelling coconut oil suntan lotion. The pain clouded my mind and instinctively I took in another deep breath.
I'm just glad that was before UA-cam so the shame of me snotting down my shirt won't haunt me the rest of my life.
Funny Stuff right there.
USLawShield rocks.
OC has strengths and weaknesses but it should be an option.
I had to like for Imri's eyes. Shalom
Best video ever! Thank you imeri, now I don't have to do that. 🤣
Karl where can we find more info on that “doorbell” punch you’ve spoke of for self defense?
In a future video
My eyes were watering just watching this. Lol
You forgot the part where you smash the empty can on his head. We were told empty it and then crush it on the offenders face.
Don't empty all of it unless it's a cheap one. Cuz then it starts dripping and less effective. Jus spray for 2 second and run far far away
Fucken A... I'm laughing hard! Imri, thanks for taking one for the team brother. Great video. Now I'm wishing we did some shooting after the CS house in basic and after I got to my unit. 🤣
Dr. Karl, a video how to flush pepperspray out of the eyes (improvised) would be awsome.
Milk
Thanks for doing it
Make sure you push the f$%& out of them so they fall over while they're wiping their eyes for extra time to get away. Stay safe out there friends 💘 (IF ITS SAFE TO DO SO OFC)
Great video guys
Awesome video!
Way to cowboy up Imri.... been sprayed a few times and I know how much that sucks.
Embry is a stud!!
Poor guy..thanks for the lesson though, having my wife watch.
Also I wear contacts and was wondering if you had any tips or alterations to your treatment plan?
Thanks Imri for doing this. You sure have a lot of determination buddy. Do ya just throw the cloths away after getting sprayed?
That's why I gave him a crap old TR shirt to wear.
Thanks Imri your a stud hand.
Hahaha that boy was at my wedding! Good job Imri!
Great video you really made a fantastic point with it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
We need to do a part 2, LOL
What do you guys think of DPS brand? Trying to find something like the old Fox formula (diff solvent).
“Who needs a friend like Karl?” Shit... I HAVE friends like Karl... 😂
Anyone that has worn the uniform has PLENTY “friends like Karl”! 🤣
Unfortunately, very few have friends like Emery. 🤣😂
Respect!! 🤩🤩
Nice! He managed to push through it. I wouldn't want to get sprayed that's forsure
I wonder what the quality is of this sample spray compared to what is supposed to be a high quality (high capsaicin level) spray like POM.
2.5 mp
OC and Pepper spray are two different things. It’s not “OC Pepper spray”. OC is Oleoresin capsicum, mean the oil extract of a pepper. Pepper spray is a chemical spray that is chemicals, not peppers. Just thought I’d put that out there for ya.
Carl why do you enjoy other’s suffering? 😂
Honestly, because it is frickin hilarious
@@TacticalRifleman Karl, you are in SO much trouble later on from Jason and Imri lol...
Awesome
Worst day of the police academy!!!
That was spectacular!
We can't buy this stuff in my country, same for tasers. I looked up how to make pepper spray but it only had a two week shelf life. Any ideas for how to make it last longer/better recipe appreciated.
Wasp Spray.
@@TacticalRiflemanasp spray does not work. It has been tested in training and does not even cause involuntary closure of the eyes.
I'm wondering if Imri really volunteered or "got volunteered". lol
Awesome. So wish I was there for that one.
I've had US Texas law Shield for years best investment I ever made
Idk about people but i live in bear country and alot of people even old timers have turned over to bear spray as their bear defence it actually is better then a gun because it works 100% of the time I've not seen any cases someone used it and didn't get away.
Yep, Bear Spray SUCKS... and Bears can't go get Dawn in the kitchen sink... I feel for them.
@@TacticalRifleman yah but atleast they can goto a river or lake with a bullet well they're not going to anymore rivers or lakes lol.
thanks Imri!!!!
That's nuts
Israeli Special Ops. Famous for their strong sense of ethics
Which spray was used?
