Avurt IM-5 looks cute but is deadly

pepper-spray-gunAs the saying goes, "Don't judge a book by its cover". In this case, the Avurt IM-5 looks rather harmless at first glance, but it is actually a personal protection device in disguise, boasting compressed nitrogen that can blast out in paintball-like pellets of extremely potent PAVA pepper spray at anyone whom you feel is a threat. Features include a laser sight that help you hit your target even without any training from as far as 40 feet away. The Avurt IM-5 might be a little bit pricey at $300, but you can't exactly place a price on peace of mind, can you?

    What a perfect way to encourage my child to herself in the face with a (normally) non-lethal weapon!
