    As a registered gun owner and self defense instructor, the Byrna is appreciated as an alternative for some users. However, listen to this accounting. The Bryna has 5 shots. His first shot was the kinetic round, and the second was the Max. He, then, completely discharged the weapon. The guy finally started to cough and rub his eyes (This was against a SINGLE person from distance). Then the person was capable of running away. Imagine if you were a 90lb woman in a darkened parking lot or facing a person, not intoxicated, but on drugs. Or facing more than one person. 🤔 Luckily, for this man, he was facing an unarmed, yet drunk, individual.

      @@c.d.j300 I agree with you that civillians have a need for less lethal weapons given that a firearm is rarely the appropriate tool. However, these ahould be required to have orange blaze to differentiate them from firearms, given the popularity of .50 cal handguns- and the manufactuer ought do training materials as to know and articulate the level of threat sufficient for intermediate force, how it relates to deadly force, and how it relates to lesser levels of force such as areosols. Rather, the law enforcement continum of force model doesnt translate well to the civilian world because civillian self defense doesnt rely on Graham v. Connor, in classic application of Grahm as to the factors to be considered the basic legal guide as to evaluate reasonableness of force such that we can easily determine the most appropriate weapon without becomming a test case. The government most probably doesnt like these weapons because they apparently think theyre about to start showing up at Antifa or Maga rallies and so fourth. And then you have the whole issue of high schoolers lacking any real discretion or self control getting their hands on these - hence the reason im not so thrilled to see these on Amazon.

      I love this because this is the issue that all of you guys are missing. If I see someone cause damage to my vehicle or other people stuff I will just call the police. That is the reason I have car insurance to replace my car or get it fix for stupid things when they happen that's for one. Two it's amazing how all you guys want to play John Wick and feel like you have to defend and directly put yourself into a situation. For this guy story yeah this time it worked out but for many other people it didn't workout so much. Take the same story of Ahmaud Arbery, three white guys thought that this young man was stealing in the neighborhood. They decided to involve themselves, follow this young man, decided to engage with him and now two of them is doing life in prison. All of this could had been avoided if they just called the police and let them do there jobs. People stop trying to be gunho out here I am sure that the guy who created Byrna doesn't want people out here getting into unnecessary altercations. Now if the guy who was telling the story had said he was minding his business and a intoxicated man just walk up to him and became violence towards him and he had to use his Byrna I would supported that but it wasn't smart to walk up to the intoxicated man and tell him that the police is on the way and you need to stay here, that could had became a bad situation for him if the intoxicated man had a gun himself, stay smart out here people stay smart.

      @@Drizo41 I would just for a couple of reasons. I have had to use a firearm indoors without earpro. As soon as you pull that shot, you are disoriented and I threw up and could not stand. I will use any method to try to survive the attack but my first choice will NOT be a firearm again. I have several options for not harming myself in the process of defending myself. So a Byrna is a good option as a first resort and the firearm being the absolute last resort. The most ironic part is the firearm was loaded with #6 birdshot that I had tubed from using the previous day. So not only was I hurt more than he was but just being hit with birdshot was enough to stop the attack so it was little more effective than being hit with a kinetic projectile. I have 30 percent hearing in one ear and less than that in the other. I cannot drive anymore because my balance is off and on top of that anytime you have to fire a weapon at someone you get arrested and I had to spend lots of money in my defense. yeah I would use a byrna.

    And if he had just NOT confronted tractor man and let the police handle it, he would not have had to discharge his Byrna. He knew where tractor man lived and could have directed the cops. Carrying a Byrna actually encouraged or emboldened him to involve himself in the situation where there was no imminent danger to life..when, for true non lethal self defense, he should not have engaged himself in the situation. tough guy with a pepper spray gun.

      A good example of a situation that does not call for lethal force. In this case the Byrna owner would have to kill a man and then face all kinds of consequences (rightfully so) or turn a blind eye to an intoxicated menace to him and others. Destroying property and possibly hurting someone badly. His injuries are, in the end, non consequential and perhaps saved another person great harm, yes, even the drunken idiot. Any number of things could’ve happened in this scenario, most of them bad. The citizen did the right thing with the right tool. Most cases of street self defense of self or property can and should end this way. At the end of the day everyone concerned can go home with, hopefully, lesson learned.

    My only question is, how did you know this guy was drunk? You have no authority to make that assumption. That guy might have been on illegal drugs. You can not make that statement. From a legal standpoint, that guy could sue you for slander on your assumption. NEVER assume what condition a suspect has. Defend yourself, absolutely. NEVER call a Byrna a weapon. Then you open yourself up to a possible felony charge. Byrna is a non-lethal self-defense launcher, PERIOD. I might sound negative, but the world we live in will sue you in a heartbeat for what you might or might not say in your statements. Be aware of what you are saying.

    This is kind of a funny story about how some people who think they are smart but are really stupid, I was talking to someone that I know of, whose father was in the past, a mob henchmen, he told me his family wasn't a gun family but his father carried guns on himself, so I asked him if he carried and he said no, so then I asked him if would carry a Byrna and he asked what's that? I proceeded to tell him its a less lethal weapon that people are carrying with themselves an alternative so as to stop rather than to kill, so then I asked him, don't you worry about the possibility of a violent confrontation, of being attacked? His response was, sure, sometimes but how good is a less lethal when you really need to have a real gun? So, this response from a guy whose father was a tough guy for the mob, who carried guns to do those kinds of things and his son who doesn't carry any protection but thinks about the possibility from time to time about violent attacks and a less lethal like the Byrna is useless and won't help. Does that make any sense? To be vulnerable and allow yourself to be a victim from anyone who can't control themselves or someone who has intentions of doing bodily harm to you? When it happens and it is too late to protect yourself and or your loved ones, it really is too late.
