How do you carry your OC spray
With all the recent controversy dealing with disparity of force i've decided that I would start doing something I probably should have been doing all along, Carrying OC spray. I've settled on the Fox Labs 2oz Stream. My problem is I'm not exactly sure how to carry it. I don't like the idea if just having it floating around my pocket (and its a bit large for that any way). I thought about belt carry but it I can't find a holster that I like. I'm thinking about possible having someone make a kydex holster for it so that I can carry it tip down on my left side so that it can be drawn with my left hand and flipped kind of like a spare mag. What do you think? How do you carry yours?

Mine is in my jacket pocket if I'm wearing a jacket or in my front pants pocket if not. Sometimes, depending on where I'm walking, I have it in my left (off gun) hand. Mine has a twistable "safety" which I leave to the safe position unless I'm in a situation where I'm not sure about so I turn it to ready while in my hand. The idea of a mag carrier is possibly good. I have an extra Remora single mag holder which I might experiment with. (I have a dual mag one that I have for two M&P45 mags as well)

I carry mine in a belly band with my knife and spare mag and of course my g26
It would be easy to make a small IWB holster to put it in but it would have to be made so you could access it quick

I got my wife a Fox Labs spray, can't remember which size, but it's got a pocket clip on it and it's set up so you can put it on a key chain. I've had it on my keys that I hang from a belt loop with a D-ring- I like it because it has a 'quick release' attachment so you can just give it a good sharp yank and pop it loose in an emergency.
I need to get another for myself, but money's been a bit tight since the surgery and all...

Front left pocket for my OC spray. Its fairly small and has a "holster" that came with it so the can is protected from having a negligent discharge.
I don't carry a gun to look for or start a fight. I carry one to finish a fight I never wanted to be in.

I have this holster for my 2oz Fox Labs Flip Top canister. I agree that it is too big for a pants pocket. Sometimes I just carry one of the smaller Fox Labs key chain units in my front pocket.

Mine is in left front pocket. It came with a keyring attached with a quick release. A small spring clamp keeps it at the top of my pocket.

IF I carry it it's in a jacket or cargo pocket. I don't carry OC too often, my bat utility belt is loaded enough as it is.

Mine saved me in Florida. A Boxer Mix Dog decided I was on his sidewalk. He started circling me and growling. I didn't want to kill anyone's Dog, I love Dogs. I aimed at him and pressed the button. I had never fired one before. It came out in a stream about 10 feet or more. I missed and it went over the top of his nose and past him. He instantly stopped, his eyes got real big, and he started sneezing. I started to walk away and he just stood there looking surprised and sneezing. I got the hell out of there and he didn't follow. Works for me. No Police reports.

I had a couple of those Cabelas Nylon pocket knife cases laying around. You know the ones they have in the aisle on sale all the time that have the little flashlight and multi blades like the Swiss Army knives. They hold a 2oz bottle of spray perfectly and have a slip thru for the belt and velcro flap.
