CS gas is used for defense in attack situations

CS gas is a tear gas that is used as a spray or with blank-firing pistols. It should be used with caution, as it can injure the other person if used incorrectly, even if it is otherwise harmless to health.

It should only be used in an emergency

CS gas is used for self-defense because it scares off opponents in a possible attack situation. It can therefore be very helpful, for example, if a person traveling alone suddenly has to defend themselves. The gas is available in the form of sprays or as ammunition for blank-firing pistols.

The right product for the right application

CS gas is available from ASMC in the form of sprays with and without a liquid jet, but it is also offered for blank guns. A spray should always be preferred because it can be carried discreetly. A blank gun attracts attention more easily, even if it is only kept in a handbag. All of our products have a range and spray duration limit and are officially permitted and approved in accordance with the Weapons Act. This means that it can be used for self-defense. However, it must not be aimed at another living being without a serious reason, otherwise injuries may occur. However, if used correctly, it is classified as harmless to health. Important: A so-called "small weapons license" is required to carry a blank gun.

Expert tip: These defense systems should be equipped with liquid jet

When buying, make sure that the spray works with a liquid jet. These sprays ensure that the wind cannot project the gas back onto your body. This is important to prevent yourself from injuring yourself when using irritant spray devices.
