Byrna SD [Self Defense] Kinetic Launcher Ultimate Bundle - Non Lethal Kinetic Projectile Launcher, Home & Personal Defense | Proudly Assembled in The USA

We did not want a lethal weapon for protection, so purchased this option. Practiced with it today shooting against a thick cardboard box from probably 25 feet away. Whoa Momma!! We used the training projectiles and I can tell you I would not want to get hit by one of these. Most of the shots penetrated the thick cardboard and into a second box behind the first one! Anyone breaking into our house would certainly feel the pain! We got the black model as someone looking at this weapon from 20+ feet would think it was a 45 caliber handgun. We certainly hope we never have to use it, but it is good to have some defense in this day and age. If you are looking for a non-lethal option to protect your home, this option would be highly recommended. Just remember even this non-lethal option is not a toy and it should be secured if children are in the house.

The Byrna SD is a compact CO2-powered less-lethal launcher that’s easy to use, has low recoil, and feels well made. It can be a reasonable option for someone who wants a less-lethal home or vehicle defense tool without stepping up to a firearm, especially if they value simple operation and are willing to practice with it. Its biggest downsides are cost, limited capacity, and the fact that it’s not a guaranteed stopper. You also have to account for ongoing CO2 and ammo costs, which of course is ongoing, but not very expensive at all and its real-world effectiveness depends a lot on accuracy, ammo choice, and training. Overall, it’s a solid niche option, but not the best fit if you want maximum concealability, the lowest cost, or firearm-level effectiveness. But there is a lot of stopping power and again it is called a non-lethal weapon so the power is just enough, and just right to get the job done. I love mine! And I will continue to buy from this company for life. They are constantly creating and innovating. I believe they are ahead of their time. That’s my opinion… Feel free to make it yours!

"Five stars! The Byrna SD Kinetic Launcher Ultimate Bundle is exactly what I was looking for to enhance my home and personal security. I wanted something effective for self-defense but strongly preferred a non-lethal option, and this completely fits the bill. The build quality is fantastic. It feels incredibly sturdy, reliable, and comfortable to handle. I love that this 'Ultimate Bundle' literally comes with everything you need right out of the box: the launcher, a high-quality hard carrying case, the kinetic projectiles, and the CO2 cartridges. You don't have to go hunting for extra accessories just to get it set up. Knowing that it’s assembled in the USA and legal in all 50 states is a massive plus. It provides incredible peace of mind for my family and me without the heavy responsibility that comes with a traditional firearm. I highly recommend this complete kit to anyone looking for a safe, dependable, and less-lethal defense option!"

Easy to use and understand.

Wow hits hard enough to break Sheetrock With the O light on it it’s perfect to pop the raccoons in the but when they try to break into the chicken coop.

The price is too high, I think greed is involved.

Careful, this isn't a toy. It shoots off a pvc pipe from 20 feet away! Don't handle unless you're comfortable with handling regular guns.

Great service and quality
