    Non Lethal self protection

    Actually several effective measures. So you carry Pepper Spray? What I now have added is the Umarex. First two rounds are pepper spray, next two are hard plastic, then comes the stuff that really hurts..

    Trans NH overland route

    There's a couple routes. One is N/S and the other E/W. The N/S is the Hamster Route with several sections meant for adventure bikes or ATV's, yet easy work arounds to continue northward. The E/W is Section 6 o the Backroads Discovery Route or NHBDR. There's also a Puppydog route (n/s) and a...

    Canada - Atlantic Region Meetups

    Would love that and I shall! Plan is to work east along the north coast, down and west exploring and possibly exiting south to NS. Should be on the Rock for a month, if all goes to plan.. Been planning out a bit.

    Canada - Atlantic Region Meetups

    We have plans to head up in mid-May from NH. Looking to drive the Trans Lab Highway and cross at Blanc Sablon. I figure it would be 1st of June as we pass your hometown. Hoping to get some trout fishing in while there. I contacted a couple guides and they're telling me it's still too early! Your...

    Non Lethal self protection

    I appreciate this. Being civilian tasers are 30s to cycle and shorter 'shock' time (as I've read), do you believe they can stop someone s well as what you may have used? How long did you find the suspect would be incapacitated? I'm reading only 15-20 seconds and they're up and shaking it off.

    Non Lethal self protection

    I'd hoped for a better explanation of you statement with your background. Then I'd hoped for suggestions of better alternatives than lethal. As stated before, there are those situations where running away is not an option. In the hopes of staying positive with this thread.. What are your...

    Non Lethal self protection

    I am attempting not to take a life that may not need to be for myself & loved ones safety. There is honor in not taking a life. So back on topic. What non-lethal method do you have or use?

    Non Lethal self protection

    If you are going to stand there, like a fool, and threaten with a weapon of any sort.. You never should have pulled it. The only time a weapon comes out is if it's to be used and all other methods are over. You scenario is a fools errand.. The purpose of a non-lethal is to allow you safe escape...

    New England Trails

    That's part of section 3 of the NEBDR, no? Can you confirm the State Forest as a 'Pay-to-Play'? Understand just parking there is $30 (non-resident).. no idea what camping might be..

    Legal Weapons and Overlanding

    My worst situation thought of is being inside the camper and the forced entry. To that I've installed a spot light at eye level to switch on from inside. Once outside I'd be silhouetted, yet should be able to slide right or left. Thinking I may mount 3 more and cover all sides. Night vision...

    Non Lethal self protection

    There is a distance rule that changes from words to action being required. Once that is crossed, is is no other choice. As Kelley is adamant about and I agree, training! I have lethal & non lethal rounds for my .45. My proposed option to replace has the power to hurt and give opportunity for...

    Non Lethal self protection

    That is one of many reports out there. I agree with getting trained, nothing like knowing how if required. I have non-lethal rounds for my .45, yet it's a firearm and illegal in several states and most federal lands.Where as the Umarex (or others like) is legal. With projectiles like 'stinks...

    This is not the place for debate and exactly what I did not wish to see start. Please refrain!

    Non Lethal self protection

    My state is a 'Stand your ground' state, as are I believe 28 others. It's those states that are not or Federal Lands.. I looked at the Byrna and liked the HDR50 for velocity and pricing mainly. Both are pretty darn close in performance. Not sure if the build's are the same as the HDR50 (or 68)...

    After the loss of our last one.. Wifey is set against another. Real shame for I agree, best of all scenarios!

    This goes right along with: "I don't have to out run the bear, just have to out run you."
