SABRE Crossfire Pepper Gel - 360° Spray for Defense at Any Angle, Maximum Strength Police-Grade OC Pepper Spray with UV Marking Dye, 20‑Foot Tactical Range, Fast Flip Top Safety, Belt Clip, 1.5 fl oz

Update 8/23/2025 Added photos of new canisters I bought. Read the important guide that comes along with it. I’m still using this stuff and swear by it. Gel is absolutely the way to go in my opinion. So glad the molded side clip is catching on. Remember, a threat can present itself out of nowhere. When you need to protect yourself and your doggies, you need to be able to have your defense ready immediately (while evaluating the threat as things can change very quickly). Fractions of a second count. Keep it clipped to the side where your free hand is. The other hand will be controlling your doggie(s). Using a soft pouch with elastic on the sides and a flap on top for retention may have a cute look to it, but it will take valuable time away from visually evaluating the perceived threat. Better to be ready sooner. Valuable seconds can go by very quickly while fiddling with getting your gel out. Keep staying safe folks! :) Update 5/6/2023 Still using this stuff with confidence. Always use gel. Spray will only end up affecting you and your animals, making you more vulnerable. Always get the version with the belt clip. The versions that come with an elastic holster will only delay you being able to use the product a few precious seconds. When you must use this, you need it now. A lot can happen in the few seconds of fiddling with a holder. So, get gel, get one with a clip molded to the product neck, and check the laws in the area you are in to ensure you can legally carry this. It’s quite effective and worth every penny. If anything has improved, the gel stream is even more precise. Update 4/4/2021 Thought I’d update. I still swear by this stuff. I’ve had two more aggressive loose dog run ins. The gel with the built in plastic clip is absolutely the way to go! If you get the spray, it’ll just blow into you and your dogs. Then you’re left standing there with your eyes sealed shut. Get gel and your chances of hitting your target go way up while minimizing any getting on you or your dogs. My latest incident was with another loose pit bull. This dog was on a mission and it wasn’t to say hi. Grabbed the gel off my belt, aimed, and a stream (not spray) of this goo spattered its face. Sorry dog, but if it’s between my dogs and I vs you, you’re gonna lose. It ran off into some bushes and started rolling around while we got outta there. Great stuff! Update 7/30/19 I swear by this stuff! Had another run-in with a dog while walking my dogs. This dog was very aggressive, so I used the gel again. Very shortly after the steam hit the dog, away it stumbled into the dark. After being in law enforcement for 20 years, I assure you this stuff is miserable for 20 minutes or so. Don’t get me wrong, I love animals, but I won’t hesitate defending myself/my animals when I have no choice. It’s now 2 for 2 (first incident was with two dogs, so maybe I can say it’s 3 for 3). Can’t praise the gel stream enough especially now that it has the built in belt clip. Go with the built in belt clip. Others are offered with a flimsy nylon holster with Velcro flap. Takes too much time to deploy when you need it most. Gel with belt clip is the way to go. Unlike the aerosol, the gel goes direct to the target. Aerosol can EASILY blow right back at you in even the slightest of wind. Leaving you vulnerable. I always carry two with me on my belt and have a supply at home. Worth every penny. Sabre also makes this with the Ruger brand on it. Sabre recently release this product that comes with the built in belt clip, like the Ruger model. This gel is amazing. A pair of pit bulls showed up out of nowhere while walking my dogs. I emptied the whole canister on them as they approached. They ran and began rubbing their heads into the park lawn. Eventually stumbled away. Go gel. Always go gel. Plus this has the uv marking dye that will make whoever/whatever attacked you glow in the dark when hit with a uv light. Get this version with the belt clip and walk with confidence.

This pepper gel spray is an ideal choice for those seeking a compact and convenient self-defense tool. Its perfect size ensures that it is lightweight and can easily fit into most bags, purses, or pockets without taking up much space. The inclusion of a clip is a thoughtful feature that allows for easy attachment to belts, bags, or clothing, making it readily accessible in case of an emergency. The durability of the aluminum canister is noteworthy, as it is robust enough to withstand being jostled around in a bag alongside other items without sustaining damage. Additionally, the canister has proven to be leak-proof, providing peace of mind that the gel spray will remain contained until it is needed. Overall, this pepper gel spray combines practicality with reliability, making it a valuable addition to any personal safety arsenal.

Small enough to hide it and put in a purse. Did not use it yet but good for safety

It looks like it would be very simple to use thus leading to a possible concern of it going off unintended. I would recommend of course placing it on your person somewhere where it is easily accessible but also a place that would limit the chances of you messing with it on accident. I would not recommend this specific pepper spray if you were intending on getting it for a younger person for this reason as there are many other pepper sprays that have locks that would prevent a misfire. As an adult I am happy with this product and confident when I have it on me. Side note: You are required to fill out your driver's license and DOB info when purchasing as this is an intense weapon. My overly intelligent Amazon delivery person for my complex threw the box in front of a random door (that was not mine even though my address was correct on the box) so I would recommend tracking this closely when ordering and making sure it ends up in your hands and not someone elses. I worry as it is so easy to use that it would cause serious damage in the hands of a child or someone not equipped to use it.

Years ago I lost a furbaby to a neighbor's three dogs breaking into my backyard and attacking him. I vowed I would never let that happen again. After some research, I got one of these. I've carried one with me ever since. This morning I took my two little furbabies on a walk around the neighborhood. A different neighbor recently got a German Shepherd. We had just started out when I spotted this dog outside of his fence down the road. We crossed the street to stay away from him but as soon as he saw us he made a beeline for us. I was ready and deployed my SABRE pepper gel. It took a couple of tries, since he kept bounding away and trying to attack again, but I finally got a good hit and he ran off. The GSD's buddy (some sort of mutt) submitted when I threatened her with the pepper spray so I was able to put her back in her yard. I took my babies home right away and rinsed their eyes and gave them baths. I had deployed so much pepper spray that it was hanging in the air and they were starting to cough. They were fine once they were cleaned up. My throat is still sore because I accidentally inhaled some during the fracas, but it was worth it to me because me and my babies are safe. I am so grateful that this product worked exactly as described when I needed it to. If it hadn't, this story would have had a different ending. So I'm about to buy a couple more. I recommend that you replace it before it expires for optimum performance. I also purchased extras so I could practice shooting it, and I think that helped me. You might want to carry your pepper gel in the same exact place (belt or pocket) and practice pulling it out to deploy, so you train your body to automatically react when you need it to. Every second counts when you are faced with danger. Stay safe out there.

I recently purchased a 2-pack of Pepper Gel Self-Defense Spray for less than $15. Here's a detailed review of my experience with the product: Pros: 1. Affordable Price: The 2-pack was reasonably priced, providing good value for money. 2. Quick Delivery: The product arrived quickly after ordering, which was a pleasant surprise. 3. Long Expiration Dates: Both cans had expiration dates four years into the future, indicating that they were quite new. 4. Well-Designed Clip: The clip attached to the can appeared to be strong and flexible, designed to accommodate various needs without being overly complex. 5. Safety Mechanisms: The product features safety mechanisms to prevent accidental discharge, adding an extra layer of security. 6. Gel Stream: The gel stream is preferred over spray by some users as it reduces the risk of accidental dousing and provides better aim. Cons: 1. Lack of Lip under Nozzle: There is an obvious need for a small lip under the nozzle to prevent spraying onto fingers and provide leverage to deploy the gel more effectively. 2. Labeling Issue: The expiration date on the bottom of the can easily rubs off, and the edges of the label remain annoyingly sticky. 3. Limited Product Quantity: Despite the size of the container, there is only around 5 or 6 seconds of continuous spray, which may not be sufficient in emergency situations with multiple attackers. Overall Impression: The Pepper Gel Self-Defense Spray is a reasonably priced product that offers good value for money. While it has some design flaws, such as the lack of a lip under the nozzle and labeling issues, it features safety mechanisms and a gel stream preferred by many users. However, the limited quantity of product in the container may be a concern for some users, especially in emergency situations. Despite these drawbacks, it has proven to be effective in self-defense scenarios, providing users with a sense of security and protection. Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable self-defense option.

I work for a company that does many things, armed security, bounty hunting, bodyguarding and private investigation work, most recently one of my jobs was securing multiple apartment complexes, my partner got a call that someone was breaking into apartments, when I arrived it was pouring rain, flooding even, 3" deep water rushing past my waterproof boots on the sidewalk, I head towards an area where people are flashing us with lights to get our attention and a woman leaning against the archway of a stairwell starts coming after me and pulls out a meat cleaver, I instantly draw my gun and have the light/laser on her as well, I supposed she came to her senses and did not want to get shot so she stopped coming towards me so when I felt like I could I grabbed the Sabre Red off of my Molle Plate Carrier and painted her entire face in the gel from about 8 feet away, she started screaming and swinging the cleaver and acted like she was going to throw it so I took cover behind a wall then less than 10 seconds after being sprayed she dropped the cleaver and dropped to her knees and put her face in the water and tried to wipe it off her face, she was groaning and screaming and I was able to quickly grab all of the bladed weapons that she had while she was incapacitated, there were two knives and one meat cleaver, the Police arrived soon after and arrested her, I saw her later in the back of a squad car and her eyes were swollen like she had two black eyes. This product is amazing, it has good range and spraying power like I mentioned it was storming heavily and flooding and it still shot a jetstream straight to her face, I covered her entire face with it and she had zero fight in her after that, when the cops came she instantly got on her knees and they put her away. I'm not sure if she was on drugs or had mental problems all I know is this works and i'm buying more right now because this is the second day in a row i've had to pull it out but the first time i've had to use it.

Five stars, easy. I keep this SABRE Crossfire Pepper Gel in my truck, and while I haven’t needed to use it yet (and hopefully never will), just having it gives me a huge sense of peace of mind — especially for those times when I’m not carrying anything else. First off, the design and size are perfect for vehicle storage. It’s compact enough to fit easily in a console, door pocket, or glove box without getting in the way, but still feels substantial and well made. It doesn’t feel flimsy or like something that would accidentally break or leak, which is important when you’re keeping something like this in your truck long-term. What really sold me on this model is the Crossfire pepper gel system. The fact that it can deploy at any angle is huge — no worrying about whether it’s upright or perfectly positioned. That kind of reliability matters in a stressful situation, and it’s something you don’t always get with cheaper sprays. I also really like that it’s pepper gel instead of spray. Less blowback, more control, and better accuracy — especially in enclosed or windy environments. Knowing it’s designed to maximize target acquisition against multiple threats makes it feel like a serious safety tool, not a gimmick. The flip-top safety is another big plus. It feels secure enough that I’m not worried about accidental discharge, but still quick and intuitive if it ever needed to be used. It’s one of those details that shows some thought went into the design. I appreciate that this is max police strength OC, too. Again — hopefully I never have to find out firsthand — but if I did, I’d want something effective. This doesn’t feel like a watered-down “feel good” product. It feels legit. Mostly, this is about peace of mind. Whether I’m driving at night, parked somewhere unfamiliar, or just want an added layer of security when I’m not carrying, having this in my truck makes me feel better. And honestly, that alone makes it worth it. Bottom line: five stars because this is well designed, reliable, easy to store, and reassuring to have on hand. I hope I never need to use it — but I’m really glad it’s there just in case.

Ist Super

Very nice

Guten Tag, das Tierabwehrspray in Gel-Form ist erwartungsgemäß und unversehrt in der Verpackung eingetroffen. Eine Funktionsprüfung konnte noch nicht durchgeführt werden. Ich hoffe, dass ich das Produkt in der Praxis dies nicht anwenden muss.

Wir haben das gute Stück getestet. Wir wollten ja bewusst kein Spray, aber ein Strahl von ca. 2 Millimeter Durchmesser, der noch dazu nicht gerade raus sondern leicht schräg nach oben geht... Also bis man den Gegner da getroffen hat, wo man ihn kampfunfähig macht – die Augen –, hat er längst reagiert und Dich erwischt. Wer glaubt, damit geschützt zu sein, hat verloren.
