Mace 80586 Pepper Gun 2.0 with LED Light - 20 ft Range, 7 Bursts, OC Pepper UV Dye - Black/Orange

The Mace Pepper Gun 2.0 is a self-defense tool that puts effective personal protection in your hands at distance. This pepper gun pairs an integrated LED light with a potent OC pepper spray formula to give you defensive options when you need them most. If you're looking for a non-lethal way to address threats while hiking, camping, or traveling in remote areas, this combination of reach, visibility, and incapacitating spray offers a practical alternative to traditional carry options.

The Pepper Gun 2.0 delivers OC pepper spray in bursts up to 20 feet away—enough distance to create separation between you and an approaching threat. The integrated dual-mode LED light serves dual purposes: it helps you aim in low light and can work as a strobe to disorient an attacker. Seven bursts per cartridge give you multiple deployment opportunities. The OC formula itself causes respiratory distress, coughing, impaired vision, and intense skin irritation; a UV dye mixed into the spray leaves a traceable residue useful for identification and investigation afterward. The slide-release safety switch prevents accidental discharge, while the trigger requires deliberate pressure—over 50 pounds of force—to fire, adding an extra layer of intentional control.

Handling is straightforward: the pistol-grip design lets you point and shoot intuitively, and the easy-load OC cartridge locks securely in place. Before deployment, shake the pepper gun vigorously to ensure even spray dispersion, then aim and squeeze in two- to three-second bursts for maximum effect. The integrated Picatinny rail accepts standard accessories if you want to customize your setup further. This is a tool built for reliability when it matters—no complicated mechanics, no batteries to manage in the field, just a compact, ready-to-go defensive option.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the effective range, and how does it compare to handheld pepper spray?

The Mace Pepper Gun 2.0 delivers OC spray up to 20 feet away, giving you significantly more distance than traditional handheld pepper spray canisters. This extra reach allows you to create and maintain separation from a threat.

How many times can I deploy the pepper spray before I need a new cartridge?

Each cartridge contains seven bursts. You can use multiple two- to three-second bursts per deployment, so plan your usage accordingly. Once the cartridge is empty, you'll need to replace it with a new one.

What does the LED light do, and will it help in darkness?

The Pepper Gun 2.0 features a dual-mode LED light that helps you aim in low-light conditions and can switch to strobe mode to disorient an approaching threat. The light is integrated into the design, so it's always with your pepper gun.

Does the UV dye stain, and what's its purpose?

Yes—the UV dye is mixed into the OC pepper formula and leaves a visible residue on skin and clothing. This marking serves to support identification and investigation after deployment. It's a tracking and evidence feature, not a primary defense mechanism.
