pepper spray
Hey guys this is kinda last minute Im traveling to New York tomorrow and later this week I know they wont let anyone carry a gun or a knife but is pepper spray legal to carry there? I know it sounds dumb and pepper spray is hardly anything for self defense but its better than nothing I would at least like to carry a gun in the glove compartment in condition 3 than nothing but I know thats illegal too any thoughts? or feed back is appreciated

Re: pepper spray
Not sure on the laws, but have some more faith in pepper spray. Get a good kind, like Fox Labs. I carry it daily and feel confident that it would give me the distance I'd need to get away from an encounter. I've had indirect contact with it and I can assure you, its pretty rough on the eyes and lungs.

Re: pepper spray
New York only permits certain kinds of pepper spray that are sold by New York FFLs and pharmacists. Don't take any of the good stuff up there.

I believe NYC still allows small locking folders? Make a quick and dirty sheath, and just keep the knife locked open in your pocket. With a good light and situational awareness, you run a decent chance of coming back to civilization alive.
