WHAT IS THE BYRNA LAUNCHER?

The Byrna HD, SD and LE are compact non-lethal personal security devices developed by Byrna Technologies Inc. NASDAQ:BYRN. We believe these launchers to be the safest, most effective and most reliable non-lethal self-defense weapons on the market today. The Byrna’s ergonomic design and patented 1st shot pull-pierce technology, makes these launchers easy to use whether you are a private citizen or a seasoned law enforcement professional.

The Byrna handheld launchers can fire a range of .68 caliber projectiles from environmentally friendly practice rounds, to hard polymer (kinetic) rounds that can be used for training or self-defense, to chemical irritant rounds designed for self-defense. These chemical irritant rounds are engineered to burst upon impact, dispersing a cloud of powerful pepper and/or tear gas powder capable of disabling an attacker for up to 30 minutes.

The Byrna compact size and line of custom-made holsters and carry bags, makes the Byrna easy to take with you wherever you go. More importantly, with its patented “1st shot pull-pierce” technology, the Byrna is always ready to use. You can leave it in your nightstand, glovebox or by your front door for days, weeks, months or even years and it will always be ready to fire on the first pull of the trigger.

The Byrna range of launchers are manufactured from the highest quality glass-reinforced polymers and aircraft grade aluminum. They contain more than 100 precision parts, and incorporates patented technology that allows the Byrna to operate very much like a real firearm. The Byrna is the ideal choice whether you use it for training and self-defense or simply backyard fun.

HOW DOES THE BYRNA LAUNCHER WORK?
IS THE BYRNA CONSIDERED TO BE A FIREARM?

No. The Byrna launcher is powered by compressed CO2 cartridges, just like a paintball or airsoft gun.

HOW DO I KNOW WHERE I CAN BRING MY BYRNA?

We recommend that you always check state and local regulations relating to CO2 powered launchers and pepper self-defense products before traveling with your Byrna. If you are unsure you can check with the local police department. For air travel questions see below.

HOW BIG IS THE BYRNA? WILL IT FIT IN A HOLSTER?

The Byrna is roughly the size of a compact 9mm handgun. We sell tactical holsters that have been custom designed to comfortably hold your Byrna as well as nylon holsters designed for compact 9mm handguns.

CAN I USE THE BYRNA FOR PAINTBALL?

Byrna launchers should be used only with Byrna marker projectiles, you should not use it with incompatible non-Byrna projectiles or CO2 canisters, this will void your warranty.

IS IT SAFE TO POINT THE BYRNA AT SOMEONE’S HEAD OR NECK IF IT IS EMPTY?

No. The Byrna should never be pointed or fired at the head, neck or back whether it is loaded or not (except in self-defense if you fear for your life). Even when the Byrna is empty the force of the gas at close range, could cause serious injury or death.
