Who is Ron Spomer
For 44 years I’ve had the good fortune to photograph and write about my passion - the outdoor life. Wild creatures and wild places have always stirred me - from the first flushing pheasant that frightened me out of my socks in grandpa’s cornfield to the last whitetail that dismissed me with a wag of its tail. In my attempts to connect with this natural wonder, to become an integral part of our ecosystem and capture a bit of its mystery, I’ve photographed, hiked, hunted, birded, and fished across much of this planet. I've seen the beauty that everyone should see, survived adventures that everyone should experience. I may not have climbed the highest mountains, canoed the wildest rivers, caught the largest fish or shot the biggest bucks, but I’ve tried. Perhaps you have, too. And that’s the essential thing. Being out there, an active participant in our outdoor world.

Get yourself a pepper spray, if you want a non lethal option. It`s cheaper, lighter, smaller and more effective. And if somebody attacks you, he is usually an arms length away.
Thanks for preventing me for wasting any money on one of these contraptions!
I want the flame thrower version. Nothing outlandish, just a 4 foot rod of fire to play Jedi with
Thanks Ron! I am torn between a tool like that and a pepper spray for non-lethal defense. Great presentation and evaluation. I wouldn't want to be hit by either but the flashlight option looks better.
this video makes my lips burn, thank you for doing twilight/live fire, it brings back bad/good memories
Great presentation. Thanks Ron
Glad you enjoyed it. thanks.
Bless the deserving with the hot sauce
And cover your ASP
Thanks for making the video Ron...
My pleasure!!
i opted for heliarced serial numbers on a .40 cal semi
Awesome video as always Ron!
Honestly though, very gimmicky.... You won't stop an assailant with one of those. A mag light and a real can of pepper spray would be way more realistic.
The world is not only USA! There are lots of countries which don't allow firearms, so non- lethal defence tools, martial arts and watchdogs are the only options.
I carry a gun(s) but my teenaged kids can’t. A Tippman Tipx loaded with alternating pepper balls and rubber coated steel balls (68 caliber) is at least something they can carry in the car in case of a breakdown. In addition to pepper spray, knife, and club.
@@brittakriep2938 well said 🙏
Interesting option that might need more development. Pepper spray is more intuitive for me. But with a better aiming system, smaller and more shots it shows some potential as a good non lethal defense tool. Thanks for the video!
People are gonna chsrge st you theres no time
Are the balls for the flashlight the same size as for the ones for the byrna
Ty
I have the pepper ball mobile.it hits hard
They are a good deal, I've got 2 of them and. Is they hit hard
where can I find 8 gram gas Co2 cartridges? the website is completely sold out.... and it's extremely difficult to get a response or alternative
Sometimes you need to pepper it up! Although i'm more a cartridge man, sure find this intresting. Thanks!
Greets, T.
Thanks for watching!
hello where can I find 8 gram gas Co2 cartridges? the website is completely sold out.... and it's extremely difficult to get a response or alternative
thanks for the review video. I noticed you were carrying while reviewing a non-lethal alternative...lmao! great video! :-)
Thanks for watching!
Sorry Ron I already have a flash light and my self defence of choice...generally called a 1911
To me, the air leak down is a big no. I don't know if you mentioned it, but if it's only good to shoot with the cap freshly turned down into place, it might as well be a cap and ball gun complicated that you have to load before going into a questionable area. Maybe do a test to see by shooting it once and store it for a week, and take it out to see how much speed the second shot goes. Baseline leak down figured, do a fresh never shot cap crank down and store it for two months. If it shoots as fast as fresh, then there is not problem as I saw it.
The CO2 cartridge doesn't get pierced until the first trigger push. So it won't leak down spontaneously. Once pierced, the CO2 should be used that day or tossed out. They cost about $0.50 each for 12g or a little more for 8g in the Lifelite Mobile version, so really not an issue.
You got some very nice background out there...must be nice to live like that...
Very!
fastest trrigger in the west !!!! nice shootin capt 1Oo%
Is the TCP to big to concealed carry?
I like that thing strapped to your side...
Rumor has it not everyone in every state can pack one of those!
Furtunately we can here in Indiana!
You can also get plastic balls at calibre and reuse them
Your video popped up in my recommended section and I enjoyed your review. Byrna makes a great Kinetic Launcher and is the only company that sells Pepperball rounds in California because they worked with the state to allow residents to take the BSIS Chemical Agent Certification exam and once passed, we can legally buy and use them here. I spent 6 months talking to other companies and none of them had any plans to sell their Pepperball products here in California which is unfortunate because they would sell tens of thousands of units easily since guns are almost impossible to legally purchase for the last 3 years as gun manufacturers don't want to do business with California because of the ridiculous number of gun laws we have here. You can actually buy a gun and a year later find it's now illegal to own that model of gun or rifle.
I’ll keep my 642!!
At 12:18 Ron says, "You've got to have a hoodie if you are doing a film about a bad guy"!
We really miss you and Betsy in the podcast adventure you left in 16 episodes!!
We might have to restart those...
@@RonSpomerOutdoors you certainly have to!!! Betsy shined bright and you relived your adventures as great as your pen (or type writer) makes you great!!!
Hi there thanks for the video.
As for self defence looks cumbersome and totally unpractical, i can see the assailant laughing 😆 grabbing it off you and hitting you over the head with it.
Thanks again Ron 👍
And outside of USA?
Any real-world testimonials about the effectiveness of the TCP against dog attacks? (like maybe a put bull sized dog). Or would bear spray canisters be a better option?
There are a few reviews on amazon that say it was effective against large dogs. Honestly, I'd go for Halt! dog spray. Ive used it in at least 8 or 9 dog attacks, and it's worked every time except 1, plus its under $10.
Get a slingshot, way more accurate, and it works all year not just in the summer.
Can of pepper spray. Anything that requires two hands to operate is a NO NO in an up close self defense situation.
Well, Ron, it would be nice if we never had to consider this but it's the times we live in. I fall on the side of carrying a gun. Those two items are just plan bulky and that Combo light laser and ball launcher seems to be very difficult to operate, and I think more so under stress. I think a good old can of bear spray would be a better option along with the flashlight you should have when walking around in the dark. I can see myself explaining to a CT State Trooper where I live: Officer Dan: Mr. George why did you hose down Skippy with a whole can of bear spray? Well, Officer Dan, Skippy was trying to relieve me of the 20 I just took out of the ATM! Somehow I still think I will be talking to a judge never the less. Good one Ron, I know this is stuff you don't normally address.
Obviously these devices are for folks who can't carry firearms or don't want the responsibility, etc. Dif. strokes for dif. folks. The fact taht many police carry pepper ball launchers suggests they can work to dissuade or disable.
The Pepperball Mobile looks very much like the original Taser. I would not recommend either to my loved ones. The pistol version could be considered as a less lethal option for law enforcement, and the coloring would help keep the user from discharging the "wrong" weapon (even though it still happens). Law enforcement operates under different rules, an apprehension usually occurs after such encounters, whereas private citizens don't have that responsibility. Law enforcement also has the lethal option, which private citizens have as well, but carrying multitudes of weapons is not always practicable for the private citizen. The KeepItSimpleStupid method is best, use your best tool, your brain, to try and avoid confrontations and keep the highly effective, but not always lethal firearm/blade(an unfired, yet deployed, firearm is a great deterrent, same for a knife), for the unavoidable.
Neat demonstration.
Hey, Ron shoot this video again at twilight, to show the badass qualities, this (item) deserves!
My Girlfriend isn’t old enough to carry and I got her traditional pepper spray but maybe she’d like the idea of a light for when she comes home late.
422 FPS is about what the old .41 Rimfire was reported to be.
It looks like so many flashlights from Taiwan in the 90's and that is a HUGE design plus.
Run it off of a rechargeable 18650 instead, and powering a GREEN laser?
People will gladly pay for just those 2 upgrades.
Increase the capacity while still maintaining this form factor?
People will pay a lot more money for it just to look like a cheap flashlight a la 1998 but will provide them actual protection.
This is interesting I’m relatively new to Spomer’s channel but I thought he was focusing on hunting. I don’t believe I’ve heard him even mention self defense in passing.
I find his focus of pepperball guns to be comical.
Also called “traumatic guns” in Europe and outside the US. I think a blunt object is probably worlds more effective!!!
Many women and physically challenged folks search for usable options for self defense. Not everyone can wield a club to defeat someone weighing twice as much.
@@RonSpomerOutdoors That's a great point, Ron.
Not everyone has the same capabilities, but everyone does deserve to be able to defend themselves.
Same with firearms.
I might be comfortable shooting full house 10mm or loading up a revolver in .44 Mag, but the 110 LB female that occasionally joins me on shooting trips is probably going to quickly lose her newfound interest in firearms if I just keep handing her powerful firearms she isn't ready for yet.
Hi Ron: Looks like a good option for for those that live in an area where you can carry it. I for one carry pepper spray which is far more convenient for me.
I'd be careful there, any time the wife wants to use you as a target she may have other motives. Just joking friend, from the guy that has been married twice.
Right on
I can't imagine that thing being more than a slight irritant to a genuine threat. Get a pistol....or, even a piece of rebar about 20-24" long.
Oh man making rebar print bruises and scars sounds brutal. 👍
That’s also gotta be about as cost effective as it gets.
@@jaxturner7288 Rebar crushes/snaps/utterly destroys anything it hits with even half of the most girly swing...
Just get some bear spray…that would scare the crap out of me, forget this thing.
Bad guys do wear hoodies though ask George Zimmerman,lol.
I know pepper sprays can be effective. I once had an unfriendly dog grab my pant leg. One shot with pepper spray and he would run away from me.
For places where they don't allow pepper spray wasp spray works. Most shoot a spray 20 feet +. And is legal to have with you.
How about a Slingshot with a Marble, Ilegal also?
I'm sure some cities declare slingshots illegal. Bit of a hassle loading one and keeping it at the ready, but workable. For one shot at least.
@@RonSpomerOutdoors Of course Ron, just pulling your leg, Yet quite akward device, Let me think awhile and I might come up something more pracical and legal, Tasers and pepper spray modified might work, Shoot a gel like substance that exits the device like bird shot pepper spray gell pellets, would be very efective, because like bird shot makes a wide pattern.Dam just gave away a patent that might make us some money
Ups, Remember compressed bird shot bullets (fragmenting), And Snake shot plastic capsules filled with bird shot. How about a plastic capsule filed with pepper spray spheres, Big calibber and CO2 propeled like a semi automatik pellet gun ?
@@RonSpomerOutdoors If you can intererst who made the flaslight in my idea and make it work, and get some royalties you could share some profits for me to buy a not to expensive rifle to teach and pass on my 7 Yr old grandson and how to shoot and hunt. My Inlaw is military but does not hunt, he went to snipper school last year and I have a 12 pack on the line, that I still can outshoot him. Not likely but still fun. Keep up the fun Ron
If people shoot themselves in the foot with a Revolver, which is the simplest tipe of firearm, Guess what wil happen with sutch a complicated sistem ?
I own both of them let me tell you that mobile is very powerful and nasty pepper
Irritant throws your breath away / just got the Tcp that I heard is excellent also but have not shot it yet / using kinetic rounds of byrna or grimburg will be very penetrating and painful I would not want to get hit by either
The TCP is a lot more powerful. I cranked up the TCP to higher power for Grimburg rounds and kept the Lifelite for Pepperballs only. I found that to be a good setup.
Is the Tcp metal and plastic or metal made and should you spray silicone in the c02 marker I was told works much better and more persistent- that is a beautiful gun package can’t go wrong
How much should you turn up FPS using
Grimburg rounds turns
It's a interesting idea. Imagine what they come up with in the years to come. What I want to know is what are you carrying in the video? It looks like a glock...
It's definitely a Glock, probably a 17 or 19, maybe a 21 because boomers like .45.
@@07thunderhawk I own a 45 and a few 9s lol.
@@mountainview540 are you a boomer? Lol
@@07thunderhawk every time I pull the trigger. 😎
Dad joke.
Wasp killer. Legal everywhere, mid range, straight stream, and will stop anyone hit in the face. Eyes, mouth, and nose specifically.
Oh, you're referencing wasp killer spray. Not a bad idea.
@@RonSpomerOutdoors Most places have laws against dangerous sprays or liquids, they akin it to battery acid or the like, My state has a law that calls out bear spray not to be used on people, use it and you're up on felony charges, and you better hope you don't blind them, you'll be paying forever !!!!!!!!
I don’t understand why you couldn’t just use your pistol on the blue man hiding in the tall grass.
Very good. but that contraption is too large slow and clumsy. I'll say though that I used a mace weapon on a nasty Pit Bull once and it stopped that mean dog like a brick wall. When on hikes and walks I carry one religiously.....not as much for people but for dogs.
It would be terrible if someone used a marble.😉
I don't think cubby was bothered at all
Mrs. Spomer missed on purpose.
That's what I thought!
Junk..
Ron doesn’t seem to have much experience with air guns!!! I’ve never gotten full power on first shot on my Benjamin marauder .25 caliber!!!
The 3rd to 5th shot is usually the most powerful. The reason is the pressure and air already in the gun slows down the O ring opening. The idea of having to dry fire to obtain full power is an issue of air guns that cannot be overcome!!!
High stress...high failure rate...
I would never rely on that for self defense. Those balls are sensitive to temperture and humidity. The dispertion on the balls breaking is not that good. If I were not carring a fire arm it would be a knife, or at least a cane.
Maybe so, but not everyone is physically capable of fending off attackers with knife or cane.
Just a small cansiter of pepper spray in your pocket is actually a pretty good idea.
Not every self defense scenario calls for lethal force.
First
You need better aim bro, ive seen women shooting this and the aim is pretty accurate
Gimmicky BS. Take some real self defense classes and carry ccw pistol only.
Pepper spray isn't a bad idea.
Not every self defense scenario requires lethal force.
I think a small pocket carried canister is vastly superior to these devices, but I don't discount pepper spray as a defensive tool.
Sorry Ron, that thing looks pretty bogus...
Sorry Ron, but not for me!
