The First Defense 360 Degrees system delivers a consistent stream pattern at any angle and any orientation. High quality is ensured through an ISO rated manufacturing facility. Independent laboratories confirm our products are consistently made to exacting standards. The red color band denotes the 1.3% MC% formula. While using a flip top safety/activator, this stream will travel up to 10-12 feet. This minimizes cross contamination and assists in targeting one person. This type of application targets the skin and eyes. The MK-3 canister size delivers about 6-8 short bursts and is designed to fit in smaller carry pouches.Defense Technology 56833 First Defense 360 Stream MK-3, 1.3%, Features: 6-8 short bursts Review: VERY effective! - I used this exact spray on a man who was incredibly intoxicated and was trying to stab his wife with a very large kitchen knife with at least a 9” blade. It stopped him dead in his tracks, he tried to run away and didn’t get very far until he stopped, dropped to knees and began rubbing his face in the wet grass attempting to wipe the spray off of his face. Needless to say, his efforts failed miserably. Anaheim police came out, arrested him for domestic violence and credited me for saving the woman’s life. The man was transported to the hospital due to the level of pain he was in while cuffed to the gurney. I did capture the entire incident on video, gave a copy to the police and an officer made it a point to find me the next day just to say “GOOD JOB” after he reviewed the video himself. The officer then said that I not only convinced him to start carrying spray again (he stopped because of poor results) but he started carrying this exact same brand the very next day. I carry this everywhere I’m legally allowed to and I carry the maximum OZ size and strength allowed by California state law. It’s VERY effective and I trust this spray with my life! Unfortunately, I have used it for legitimate defensive purposes several times and it has never failed me! I would post the video on here, but it’s from my company’s facebook page which I’m sure desertcart would not allow as they would probably see that as a form of advertisement. I highly recommend this product and swear by it. But, keep in mind, if you use this product or any other pepper spray/mace products without solid justification, it is a felony and can land you in serious legal trouble as well as severe civil liabilities. Be smart when carrying and using these type of products. It’s for self DEFENSE ONLY! Also, I would strongly check with your state and see what the laws are in carrying and using pepper spray. I believe in some states it’s illegal to even possess pepper spray or Mace. When using any pepper spray or mace products in self defense situations, you ALWAYS firstly stay calm! But, you want to spray the attacker’s face in a “Z” pattern if possible. Meaning, first pass of the “Z” pattern going across the face hitting the attacker directly in both eyes, then, then second pass of the “Z” spraying the attacker in the nose hitting both nostrils, and the last pass of the “Z” pattern, spraying the attacker in the mouth! If you do that, the attacker will regret every life decision ever made, will fall to the ground in pain and will not get back up and will remain there until police arrive. Secondly, if you do spray someone. CALL 9-1-1 and STAY there if safe to do so. If you leave and do not call the police, you’re looking at possible criminal charges. If you de leave for safely reasons, at least stay close enough to where it is safe and call the police. When they arrive just tell them why it wasn’t safe for you to still be there. And then explain in detail what happens and what led up to the use of the spray. If you were justified in its use, you will have nothing to worry about and most likely never see a courtroom. Also take note of any security cameras you noticed that may have caught the entire incident. Again, as previously mentioned. Be smart about it’s use and never use it just because your were angry or your emotions were running high. That’s never a good reason and will land you in jail very fast! It’s ONLY FOR SELF DEFENSE pure and simple! Also, needless to say, (common sense) keep this way from children! Matter of fact, kinda treat it like a loaded firearm! Review: The Best Canister and Chemical Combo you can buy today! See review for details! - 1) Yes, the Def-Tech 1.3% is about the most powerful pepper spray you can buy. The only other one that is close is the Fox Labs 5.3. 2) The "360" designation of this model means that the liquid is contained in a separate internal "bag", which is surrounded by the compressed gas. This allows you to get reliable spraying at sideways and upside down angles, which is very nice to have in a "weapon", as who knows what angle you might be able to get this into in a conflict. 3) These larger, round canisters (MK2, MK3, MK4), along with their larger flip tops, are the quickest to fire, most reliable and durable personal chemical weapon dispensers available. Yes, they are a bit tougher to carry in a pocket or bag compared to the smaller MK6 or various twist top canisters, but they are well worth carrying if you can manage the size (its a weapon, and speed, reliability and range are critical to ALL weapons... don't sacrifice any of those factors, if you don't absolutely have to!) 4) Some states (like California) still limit the amount/volume of liquid in a canister that a private citizen can own. In CA, the max is 2oz... which makes the MK3 canister the max size (at 3oz, the MK4 is over that limit, which could get you in trouble with law enforcement). There is no limit to canister volume in CA for registered security officers with an OC permit, or local or federal law enforcement. 5) Some pepper spray here on desertcart is listed as "Prime" shipping, while others are not. Keep in mind that by Federal Law, ALL pepper spray has to ship via ground shipping, so.. it's going to take 5 days to get to you, no matter how it is shipped. If the pepper spray is not listed as Prime, but is still free shipping (like this 360 version here currently is listed), then it really doesnt matter that it is not prime shipping. I received three of this canisters in 4 days after order. ## Features - Defense Technology - 56833 - Personal Defense ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B015WS9MH6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #76,537 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #143 in Self Defense Pepper Spray | | Brand | Defense Technology | | Brand Name | Defense Technology | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 403 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00734955568338 | | Item Weight | 1.47 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Defense Technology | | Manufacturer Part Number | 56833 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Range | 12 Feet | | Shape | cylinder | | UPC | 734955568338 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY - **Item Weight:** 1.47 Ounces - **Range:** 12 Feet - **UPC:** 734955568338 - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00734955568338 ## Images ![Defense Technology 56833 First Defense 360 Stream MK-3, 1.3% - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41NvESNglkL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VERY effective! *by C***H on August 13, 2023* I used this exact spray on a man who was incredibly intoxicated and was trying to stab his wife with a very large kitchen knife with at least a 9” blade.
