Okay /k/, whats your opinion on pocket sand?
Whats the best method for prolonged storage, in a plastic bag or what? Any type of grain or color you prefer. Pocket sand is a great back up "weapon" for self defense right after your 1911 fails.

The only effective pocket sand is that which naturally occurs.

Don't believe the hype, natural silicate pocket sand is not good for defense.

Instead get yourself some fine grain industrial mold sand or industrial shaved sand from projects such as rock cutting. This is the real key to defense. The grains stick together tighter so you can pack more in an enclosed space. I like to use a 4x4 inch square pouch that you can buy online with a self sealing top. These are critical because you don't want a bag of wet sand. Next when you are in position put three fingers into the sand and throw like you would a deck of cards at some cheating gambler. This will blind them and saves you from using all the sand at once. With this method you can have up to ten throwings before you must reload.

Don't listen to this guy. You have to determine the sand yourself. Fingerfuck different kinds of it until you find the right fit for you.

Shit. Everybody knows that only legitimate volcanic ash can produce the sort of immediate deterrent effect necessary for life or death self-defense situations.

Pic related. Shit will cut you so bad, that you won't know it cut you so bad.

Look, pocket sand might not have as much penetration as fine grain industrial powders, but it's not about penetration. I'd rather throw one big Pocket Sand at someone instead of 10 throwings of a finer dust.

Fairly sure the issue with finer powders is that you might get them in your eyes, or inhale them.
Not that you would need to throw more.

Does anyone here have experience with ground pocket glass?
I hear once it gets into the system it can do serious internal damage and is extremely irritating to the eyes?

I tried pocket glass at the range once, and I didn't like it. It didn't fit my hand as well as a good Pocket Sand. It wasn't as comfortable to me, but who knows, you might like it

Pocket glass did not work well when I tried to use it in Kansas City. It tended to drop from the air too quickly.

Pocket sand saved my cousin from rape. If women don't carry pocket sand, they're putting themselves at a big disadvantage. Be sure to calculate for windage.

Of course, leave your pocket sand in the car if you're headed into an establishment that serves alcohol.

In vietnam we had to have the pocket sand shipped in on account of there isn't any good sand in the jungles.

We lost alot of men because the higher-ups refused to issue sand during deployment instead of in-country.

*I knew a few guys who used to go across the wire into Cambodia and they always made sure to bring different sand than the Army was using... plausible deniability in case of capture and whatnot...

People are always complaining about US pocket sand not being good enough in Iraq. Only POGs and people who've never carried on ounce of pocket sand in their life say this crap.

My pocket sand took down it's fair share of guys. Mind you this was in PSUO (pocket sand urban ops for you who don't know) when speed and accuracy are everything. Russian made sand couldn't hit the broad side of a barn, but America sand? Dead accurate.
