Is pepper spray legal in New Jersey, and more specifically, is the Kimber Pepper Blaster legal. Are there any other legal ramifications that should be known about... traveling to NYC, PA, etc.

 

 

Has anybody had experience with one of the Kimbers?

Im not entirely sure if they are legal, but I did see them for sale at cheyenne mountain outfitters when I was there last week.

thusfore legal lol

Works well. would prefer a can though, kimber pepper blaster only has 2 shots.

New Jersey: 2C:39-6i Any non-felon 18 or over may possess for the purpose of self-defense “one pocket-sized device which contains and releases not more than three-quarters of an ounce of chemical substance not ordinarily capable of lethal use or of inflicting serious bodily injury, but rather is intended to produce temporary physical discomfort or disability through being vaporized or otherwise dispensed in the air”.

I carry one - they're legal.

I just ordered one! How do you carry it?

There is a rough-out leather pocket holster, made by DeSantis, available for it.

From their site: Effective range of 13' up to 90 MPH.

^^ This. I use the DeSantis.

Say I get pulled over with her in my pocket...(Knock on wood). Do you have to inform the officer you have one on your persons? Or is it not a big deal

If you had a pepper spray on a keychain, would you? It's for self defense.

if i got pulled over.. for lets say 10mph over the speed limit.. I would not randomly announce that I have a pocket knife.. I would also not announcer that I have a small legal amount of pepper spray.. if for some bizarre reason the stop progressed to me being out of the car.. and the officer said "do you have any weapons or other items I should be aware of.. then yes I would make the officer aware of things like pocket knives.. pepper spray etc..

I have the Kimber/ JPX jet protector that I keep in my dresser. It's a pretty sweet looking "gun" and with the dye practice cartridge I was able to test it out. It's neat. Mine is the black version

Thanks Brother! Makes sense

Pepper spray will either work or it wont..if your bad guy is one of the 5-10% of people that are not affected by it, having a Riot-control Fire-extinguisher-sized OC spray isnt going to help you.

I bought one for me, my wife and daughter. I'd rather carry this and a fire arm but right now this (hopefully) buys me 5-10 seconds in the event of an attack. Also, our family is taking self awareness/self defense courses. I'd still prefer exercising my RIGHT to carry a firearm and defend myself and family.

It seems to be one of the next best things to being able to carry. Are there better alternatives to the Kimber? I saw cheap ones at Harbor Freight store in North Bergen for about 8 dollars each. Are they any good?

cheap pepper blasters? Or just regular pepper spray?

At work a couple of is looked into these. The reports on the Kimbers are really good. Although, it seems the first shot is a little low and the second more on target. That could be because of the lower shot firing first.

Yes - the lower shot fires first, so it's low.

Would be cool to mount to the front of a shot gun, or an ar, simply so u can desculate the force needed. Just an idea
