Ice_Phoenix87 Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 How would i make a anti-personal powder? I wanna make something like pepper spray but in powder form. Would black pepper, baking soda and flour work? is there any other things i could add or take away from it?
YT2095 Posted February 23, 2004 Posted February 23, 2004 use cheyenne pepper then. the others would get you laughed at! {edit} may I ask what you want this for anyway? I have an idea and it sounds a little anti-social and could probably end up with you getting badly hurt if it didn`t work 1`st time!
Ice_Phoenix87 Posted February 24, 2004 Author Posted February 24, 2004 The area i live in isnt the safest thats the reason. So since i cant carry pepper spray, i thought i might carry a powder instead. Anti-Social? lol. So where do you get that powder?
YT2095 Posted February 24, 2004 Posted February 24, 2004 a local super market in the spices section, look for chili powder too the one marked (HOT). and be very carefull that it works 1`st time else you risk getting your A$$ kicked into the middle of next week if you miss!
YT2095 Posted February 24, 2004 Posted February 24, 2004 well I guess if the guy gets picked on bullied, it`s only fair that he carries something like that around, unless he`s a good runner then there`s no excuse. but if he can`t look after himself in a fight or run, then I see no harm in a little "Distraction tactics" to buy youreslf some time. it is only chili powder and the effects wear off in half hour if you don`t rub it. it`s no more than Mace or Pepper spray (just keep upwind of it) LOL. besides, if it works, they may think about trying it again, and it`ll buy him some time to escape. what are the crims gunna do, fone the cops and say some kid that we tried to mug threw a handfull spice at me if nothing else, if having it gives him confidence, then that may alter his body language and make an attack less likely anyway
Sayonara Posted February 24, 2004 Posted February 24, 2004 I was thinking more along the lines of "internet geek in imploded spicy mace pummelling" headlines
YT2095 Posted February 24, 2004 Posted February 24, 2004 LOL, well I must admit, it`s not the smartest thing to do, that`s for sure! If I were him I`de invest in some good running shoes and have pocket full of little marbles or ball bearings to drop behind me as I legged it. or carry around a can of well shook up Coke Cola that you open infront of them as you offer to give them your money. or take up fighting lessons (much more fun) and beat 7 bells out of em
aman Posted February 24, 2004 Posted February 24, 2004 As far as protection against the unknown, awareness is the best defense, and a fast pair of feet helps sometimes. Otherwise if you want to go into bad situations and be totally offensively defensive, I'd recommend a suit of armor with claymores on it. As a middleground as YT suggests, a little knowledge of self defense should allow anybody to go anywhere they wish, not without fear, but with confidence. It's a waste of time to meet imaginary dangers but is also a test of our humanity to be prepared for the real ones. I would suggest going to into a martial arts discipline to realize the greater power of the body in bad situations. Then peppers, gasses, and metals might help you more than them. Just aman
BrainMan Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 There are shops that specialize in hot sauces and papers with extreamly high contents of capsaisin. Some of them are so high, that they will literally do serious damage to a person (even just touching it to your skin). This stuff is no joke. I suppose you could use smoe of this stuff for defense in a powder, but I wouldn't really recommend it. Here is a quick example: http://store.yahoo.com/hotsauceworld/index.html
-Demosthenes- Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 What's wrong with just carying around pepper spray. I saw something about pepper spray get bears to run off (sounds plenty powerful to me )
mooeypoo Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Watch from the wind. My mom used pepper spray when she was younger and although the guy panicked and ran away (thank god), it wasn't because of the pepper spray itself - the wind braught it all back to her face and she came back home with teary eyes and boiling face Just be careful
Radical Edward Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 the problem with things like pepper spray, is that if it doesn't hit them or whatever and they get you... they will probably spray it in your eyes and do something really nasty to you.
YT2095 Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 you need something that has a good range on it (6 foot min) to protect your personal "Zone". a spray is better, but a powder you`de have to be up close and personal 1`st, it`s too late then! I`de invest in fighting lessons and good running shoes. and only fight as a last resort
DeoxyriboNucleicAcid Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Maybe if you fill a watergun with a soution of the dissolved powder, and very concentrated in water. That might work? I know i know, it sounds crazy, lol.
YT2095 Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 water is not a solvent for Capsciacin, you need Oil Based solvents Alcohol will work to and it wont "rot" the plastic in your water pistol as petroleum based products will, and it will lack the viscosity that plain oil has
DeoxyriboNucleicAcid Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 nice, the "eye stinging water pistal" we could patent it, lol :-D
YT2095 Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 too late unfortunately, a variation already exists, called "pepper spray" beleive it or not
Guest paul1 Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 I want a liquid concentrate pepper spray so I can inject it into paintballs and shoot them at a bunch of damn squirrels eating my peaches and pecans. Should work, paintballs are an effective method of payload deployment as they disentigrate on impact and will spray out in all directions. Should only take a few near misses to scare those varmits away.
Sayonara Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 That relies on you being there at the time though. Why not rig up some "sentry guns" by connecting pepper sprays to some kind of passive sensor.
jgerlica Posted July 4, 2004 Posted July 4, 2004 Get your hands on som habaneros, or what have you. Grind the seeds in your handy dandy mortar and pestle, and then immerse in 90% isopopryl alcohol.(available at your local grocer/pharmacy) Let this stand for a day or two, shaking every now and then. Distill to desired potency.
STING Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 Yes..extract of cheyenne pepper seeds is the way to go. put in a coffee maker with alcohol for 30 minutes or so...you may need to add more alcohol during the process... then evaporate to a more or less concentrat. put it in an empty nasal spray bottles and you are all set...but if you want a real kick as? knock down drag out thing is Formaldehyde in a squrit bottle, this will drop a person in 2 seconds flat. some times you can find in the fishing department in a store ...as in little bags of minnows soked in Formaldehyde and there is enough Formaldehyde in .....say three bags to fill a nasal squrit bottle....trust me.. a little of that in the eyes and it's run home to mom crying....cheers
Guest moose man Posted February 18, 2005 Posted February 18, 2005 Try putting Listerine in a spray gun, or possibly breath spray. I got some of that breath mint spray in the eyes one time. It hurts...
