That shouldn't be an issue if you get the orange one (I doubt you want the pink one, but they have that too). So yeah, if you get the black one, that will be an issue for you.
@@VeraxMusicI have the black one but it’s called knowing our rights and treating it as a real firearm where I’m not going to bring it places that I know I’ll get in trouble and I’m not just flaring it around.

I'm glad it worked out for him, but honestly you would think a fellow truck driver should know that if he's driving slow, it means he's at the end of his shift and can't drive any faster without getting in trouble for it. My father was a truck driver in the 70s and 80s and he would tell us stories of his travels when he got home, most were funny but a few were kinda scary for him. He carried a gun,but luckily never had to use it.
Respect to you and your dad. Sadly, the industry is very much unlike it's former self. The respect, camaraderie and the patience is completely degraded. ELD'S have only amplified the jobs stress and the "me first" attitude.
It's never about the things they claim that has caused the anger, it's other factors, home,work. This guy was reasonable and he held no animosity after the fact.
I used to have a CDL, I have been coast to coast, border to border and I carried a black powder cap&ball 44 cal. revolver. If it shoots black powder, its "NOT" a fire arm.
He said he "I had a flashlight on it and a strobe and I lit him up." I think he meant he lit him up with the light, not with a round from it. I may be wrong, but that's how I took it, and I even went back and watched it again. (1:40 for reference)
You are correct, that is how I understood it from the start, hearing his explanation...the idiot saw the light and wisely backed off, still coherent enough to do so, despite being drunk
Found out the hard way that if you buy Byrna products on Amazon, their customer support people will not help you. All they will say is "You didnt buy it from us so we cant help you". (the pistol didnt ship with the ammo) Wont buy their stuff again.
This illustrates why the LL arms are valuable. There are many instances where you certainly don't want to kill anyone, but the show of force keeps things from getting out of hand. Furthermore, if he had to use the Byrna, he could pull the trigger with a good chance that the person he's firing on is not going to be seriously hurt. Pulling the trigger when you know you will likely kill someone can cause a lot of trepidation that works against you in a tense situation.
Any driver that’s been doing the job for more than a few weeks should know the spent clock crawl. We’ve all been there and we all see other drivers having to do it often enough to know exactly what’s going on. Dude must have been having a rough day. Either that or he needs to attend an anger management course and maybe look for another profession! Whatever the case, kudos to this driver for having the intelligence and maturity to have a non lethal option at the ready. That situation could have easily been tragic. It’s NEVER ok to forcefully open a driver’s door and doing so can easily get you killed.
As a fellow truck driver and Army veteran. I believe that this platform is a fantastic tool for self defense. Unfortunately, simply having a firearm in a Blue state in the truck could be at the very least problematic. Or worse a felony. The Byrna Launcher would be a better alternative to use during an altercation. It’s “Not” a firearm and legal in all 50 states. Though the pepper and Cs/Oc rounds are prohibited in some states and cities, the hard projectiles are absolutely legal.
Use of one of these expect law suits to ensue. You may think that preventing someone from attacking you will be the end of your troubles. Wait for that attacker to take you to court for damages done to them by this air gun. I say if you buy one of these, back it up with a firearm or, have a lawyer at the ready for the law suits to come.
So glad U had you defense rounds. In NY, we can't defend ourselves, because we MIGHT hurt ourselves, or others...LMAO. So happy for you that this defense weapon, while DIFINATLY affective, worked for you in your time of need.......

Good dude. But my take away is that he emptied “lit him up” Byrne on the jerk and said the guy just backed away and walked to his truck. Then came out again. What if he came back with his gun? It Didn’t drop him or incapacitate him in any way. Apparently good enough to get phone out and dial police right away.
Wow very humble man. These days u need something that will keep a person some what safe. Without causing severe terminal injury. Or going to the pokie. Is this safety weapon really legit, non legal 🤔??
If anyone draws on you with a real OR byrna style gun, you light them up with more than the strobe light, I'd think. You could be screwed either way of course, but such is life here in the grand ol future. I wonder if you can load a couple pepper shots, with more effective kinetic rounds behind? In case the man coming at you likes pepper on his salad? I'm probably getting these for my kids for Christmas, so I'll figure it out lol
Unfortunately the Burna might give owners a false sense of security. This can get you killed. More than likely your aggressor might be armed. Or not afraid to conduct bodily harm to you or your family. Also not the aggressor might be high on drugs. They are not going to feel the affects of gas balls or them making contact.
@@jamesdean9943 yes... this is why I like the idea of a burner style weapon that is an actual gun...which could fire several kinetic rounds (forget the pepper balls) followed by actual rounds... if the first three don't stop you the next three will
Do whatever u feel like...if ur not able to make decisions for yourself then dont carry self defense stuff. Very few police officers ever discharge their service guns...almost all situations are handled with less lethal or verbal commands.
Then you use your real gun. Not really necessary to shoot and kill a meth head in your front yard. It's less lethal and it's better than pepper spray -- although you can use pepper spray/tear gas rounds from a distance. It's not supposed to be a replacement for a gun. I know a guy that keeps both right next to his sofa. Pick the right tool for the job.
I was considering buying one for self defense if needed, but it was concerning that the gentleman in the video said he lit his aggressor up and the man was able to just walk away. I was hoping to hear that the attacker would be disabled for a short period of time, to allow the victim time to escape, or conduct a citizen's arrest.
I saw an ad for the byrna and it said it's supposed to temporarily disable the person for up to 30 mins. I'm assuming that would be what the pepper spray rounds are for.
He didn’t fire. I saw a methed out inmate in county get incapacitated after just two rounds, one in the shoulder and one in the face. He was legit gone, was able to be cuffed and thrown in solitary. Definitely effective but I’d recommend buying a paintball marker and filling it with pepper ball rounds. A lot cheaper and I can put the link to the one I have, it’s also a lot smaller, about the size of a compact handgun so it’s easier for concealed carry.
There is a misconception with the term "lit him up" in the video at about the 1:45 mark. He said he has a flashlight and a strobe that he lit him up with, not firing the Byrna at him. When the guy was "lit up", he raised his hands and walked away.
If you get the pepper spray or tear gas round near you, you are incapacitated. You can't breathe, your eyes water, you cough, you drool, your face burns. You can sometimes walk but you aren't doing anything else. Watch the videos on the Byrna site.
If it was recorded via video or voice that would have also protected. having said that, is there a really good recording device that could be turned on quickly and efficiently
A Byrna looks like a gun, enough that an officer thought it was a gun and tried to rack it. Having a "fake" gun could be a disaster in certain circumstances. Every trucker that I know carries a real gun. Go big or go home.
I know I'm late seeing this video but I just have this to say because for the 1st time I heard somebody with some common sense say there are times when you may need a firearm a real firearm but The Times when less than lethal is sufficient I totally agree that if you don't have to take a life please don't but if you're left with no other choice do what you gotta do so you go home to your family! Right on Mr. Truck driver!
Hey Chris, if you go back to around the 1:45 mark of the video, he is saying he "lit him up", but with the flash light and strobe. There weren't any rounds fired. As soon as the other trucker had the lights in his face, he backed away with his hands up.
He didn't use any rounds. He "lit him up" with the flashlight and strobe attached to the Byrna. Once the guy had the lights in his face, he raised his hands and walked away.
Howdy from Newport Beach California…🇺🇸🐬.. if he was in California he had 20 squad cars on him… I have a Byrna… yes I do carry it with me and I have a taser I don’t trust nobody…
Did you not hear that he was at the end of his allotted driving time as per the DOT? It wasn't intentional at all. It was mandatory! But, does being agitated or aggravated give the other driver the right to enter his vehicle? That's a big negatory good buddy!!!
Depends on the state your in. It's less lethal. No license required. Perfectly legal (in WA). It's the equivalent of carrying pepper spray and is treated by law enforcement accordingly.
Because he wasn’t carrying it. Pepper balls have a better effective range as well. Saw a meth head in county jail get dropped and cuffed with only two rounds shot. Very effective.

Everyone should own a less lethal, if police used less lethal .68 cals there would be alot more people still alive that didn't need to get shot with a lethal fire arm

BYRNA, BYRNA, byrna , yeap everyone is raving about them , but man , i personally cant see spending more for a paintball gun then you would pay for a real REAL FIREARM !!!! LOL .... TAKE for an example , the Umarex line of self defense and home defense co2 powered weapons , they cost a third of your product and with little modifications , produce 3 times the power and more . if that guy in the video being shot by the byrna would have returned fire with a modded umarex hdp or hdr , the guy with the byrna would have been the one throwing up his hands up in the air and running from his truck , believe me lol lol lol !!!!!!
I was about to get one of these then I saw a review video where it kept jamming and the trigger didn't reset so it could be fired again. It fired about 50% of the time.
I fired mine now 3x as long as the CO2 cartridge gave juice, about 24 shots per cartridge, never had a problem with it...I practice from my hallway into the garage using cardboard boxes as aim
Have shot my SD hundreds of times...no jams, no broken pepperballs, no issues. HD might be what your talking about. Also, a lot of people use off brand cheap ammo...byrna is very high quality.
I hope I don't offend anyone, but at the age of 58,I never thought I would ever hear a white man say that he really doesn't want to kill someone. He really made me feel like he was sincere in saying that. GOD bless you brother .
Crawling at 3mph? Com'on, dude. He should've planned his time better. Not that his self defense was wrong but those super truckers can be very annoying.

@@Aglassact77 I put a 12 gram adapter in my Byrna hd.
@@Thunderstrucktrans yep just like my pellet gun lol those cartridges
don't last long either, once they are used. Replace with a fresh one
after one time use.
What is the laser light you had mounted on it?
Sorry for the delay in responding I have the streamlight TLR8 it is a red laser with the flashlight, they also have the TLR8G which is the flashlight and a green laser
It's called a laser light.
You shoulda waited 🤬
Such a nice guy!!!!!
Everyone should own a less lethal, if police used less lethal .68 cals there would be alot more people still alive that didn't need to get shot with a lethal fire arm
Pretty cool
Am i the only one to point out the massive size of this man's hands anyone that would be stupid enough to try and enrage a person with Andre the giant size hands was insane anyway and needed to be stopped imagine if this gentleman had an angry disposition by nature look the *%^* out size matters at some point
BYRNA, BYRNA, byrna , yeap everyone is raving about them , but man , i personally cant see spending more for a paintball gun then you would pay for a real REAL FIREARM !!!! LOL ....
TAKE for an example , the Umarex line of self defense and home defense co2 powered weapons , they cost a third of your product and with little modifications , produce 3 times the power and more . if that guy in the video being shot by the byrna would have returned fire with a modded umarex hdp or hdr , the guy with the byrna would have been the one throwing up his hands up in the air and running from his truck , believe me lol lol lol !!!!!!
I'll but whatever Brenda is selling
What a wussy calling the police. 🤣🤣

The initiator was a immature,insecure person 🙄🤖🤔
He was a meth head.

nice
Sounds like a waste of money
I was about to get one of these then I saw a review video where it kept jamming and the trigger didn't reset so it could be fired again. It fired about 50% of the time.
Never had a problem with mine.
I fired mine now 3x as long as the CO2 cartridge gave juice, about 24 shots per cartridge, never had a problem with it...I practice from my hallway into the garage using cardboard boxes as aim
Have shot my SD hundreds of times...no jams, no broken pepperballs, no issues. HD might be what your talking about. Also, a lot of people use off brand cheap ammo...byrna is very high quality.
I hope I don't offend anyone, but at the age of 58,I never thought I would ever hear a white man say that he really doesn't want to kill someone. He really made me feel like he was sincere in saying that. GOD bless you brother .
I am a "white man" and have never felt the need to kill someone. Where do you live? Chicago? That is one sad statement you made.
@larryk3986
Yes,I agree. I'm just being honest, however.

Crawling at 3mph? Com'on, dude. He should've planned his time better. Not that his self defense was wrong but those super truckers can be very annoying.
This whole thing could have been avoided had this guy just went into personal conveyance and state for the reason to find safe parking. READ IT, ITS IN THE RULES!
Thanks, Byrna. This is the only responsible gun ownership I recognize.
