Overview
Built for discreet carry and close-range personal defense, this compact launcher is designed to fire .61-caliber kinetic or chemical irritant projectiles from a CO2-powered platform. It uses a handgun-like manual of operation and is described as accurate out to 60 feet, with a 5-round magazine capacity and up to 400 FPS muzzle velocity. The universal kit adds practical range-ready components, including magazines, CO2 cylinders, training projectiles, kinetic projectiles, and a carrying case. Because it does not include chemical projectiles, it suits users who want a less-lethal option with a training-focused package right out of the box.
