Our chemical projectiles are the best on the market. Unfortunately, with ALL chemical projectiles, there is always a slight risk of the projectiles cracking in the magazine or launcher. The chemical rounds have to be fragile or they would never break when hitting an assailant but also need to be strong enough to survive being fired from the launcher.

Exposing any chemical projectiles to excess impact, vibration, extreme temperature conditions, or even overhandling the projectiles could potentially cause them to crack or break. Please also note we do not recommend a 5 +1 or 7 + 1 setup where six or eight total rounds are in the launcher. The launcher is designed to hold 5/7 rounds. Although the extra 6th/8th round will sometimes fit in the launcher, this will cause the launcher to jam and can cause the projectiles to rupture when stored, carried, or fired.

Our chemical projectiles are preferred by many Law Enforcement Agencies and Private Security Companies due to their high quality and durability. We now manufacture our projectiles in house to have even more control over quality. We have made them stronger to survive the shot but also easier to break when they strike a target while having a better dispersion pattern of the chemical irritants due to the improved shell design.

We are aware of the unpleasant nature of the irritant rounds, and we are sorry if you were accidentally exposed. You can also dispose of the broken projectiles in your normal trash if wrapped in plastic.

Our most powerful proprietary pepper and tear gas blend: OC, CS all in one shot, with quick-acting incapacitating effects, higher dispersion, and higher concentration of chemical irritants than any other round found on the market today, our Byrna HD Max projectiles are designed for maximum stopping power.

Physical symptoms of chemical irritants often result in disorientation and agitation, which can lead to a state of fear, anxiety and panic in would-be attackers. Upon impact the projectiles burst, creating a cloud of chemical irritant that rapidly disperses into the air to quickly incapacitate an attacker. Within seconds, the saturation area extends in all directions around the point of impact.
