Keeping Bad Guys at Bay
See how SureFire is taking away the cover of darkness from bad guys who go bump in the night.
| Force Option |
A couple of months ago, I was with my date, around 1:00 a.m. We had just been to the cinema, and we were walking back to her place, located in a neighborhood with a lot of crowded pubs in it.
Inevitably, a guy, obviously quite drunk, approached us and started flirting (in a disgusting way) with my girl. We just ignored him and carried on walking, but then another guy joined him, and they both followed us, laughing and acting rude as they did. I always carry pepper spray with me, but I knew that using it would cause too many problems, so instead I responded to them with some harsh words, keeping one hand on my pepper spray just in case. But they still wouldn't leave, so I pulled out my SureFire C2 Centurion®, with its ultra high-output lamp, which I was also carrying. I turned it on and pointed it at their eyes, blinding both of them with its 120-lumen beam. I then grabbed one of them with my other hand and pushed him away. He was so disoriented (both from the bright beam and from being drunk) that he fell to the ground. I then shouted at them, grabbed my date, and walked away. They didn't follow.
Thankfully, I didn't need to use my pepper spray because my C2 was enough to defuse the situation. Thanks, SureFire.
