BYRNA MAX PEPPER PROJECTILES x5

The non-lethal Byrna ‘Max’ projectile is designed to temporarily immobilise dangerous or aggressive individuals. It is made from OC (Oleoresin Capsicum) combined with CS (Chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile) to cause intense pain, burning sensations and severe irritation of the eyes and respiratory tract. This projectile should be fired from the Byrna launcher for optimum effectiveness between 10 and 12 metres. It should only be used in the event of immediate danger and after assessing the situation.

In some countries, this ammunition is reserved for police and security forces.

The Byrna incapacitating projectile is a non-lethal product designed to temporarily immobilise dangerous or aggressive individuals. It consists of a plastic capsule containing a mixture of OC (Oleoresin Capsicum) 1% and CS (Chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile) 8%, two chemical substances known for their incapacitating effect.

OC is a natural pepper extract that causes intense pain and a burning sensation when it comes into contact with the eyes, nose and mucous membranes. CS is also an irritant, causing watery eyes, a burning sensation and coughing.

The Byrna projectile is effective at a distance of up to 12 metres. When it comes into contact with the target, the capsule shatters and the OC and CS mixture spreads through the air, releasing a cloud of incapacitating powder that invades the airways and eyes, causing immediate pain and temporary incapacitation.

It is important to note that, although the Byrna projectile is non-lethal, it can cause injury if used at too close a range or if the target has pre-existing medical conditions. It is therefore recommended that it should only be used in the event of immediate danger and after assessing the situation.

While the aggressor is temporarily incapacitated, it is preferable to flee rather than attempt to neutralise him. It is important to contact the police to deal with the situation.
