Great idea!

Anyone else seen this new non-lethal weapon?

Anyone own one? I'm thinking about buying one for my wife to carry.

Can’t wait for the videos of “paintball” wars with that thing.

If you're going to carry, you might as well carry the real thing. JMO

Also, I'd be curious to know what the shelf life of those rounds are...paintballs don't last forever and aren't supposed to be kept in high heat or humidity. If I have to resort to using force with a weapon I don't know that I could trust that particular platform.

This plus I would worry the C02 wouldn't hold pressure over time.

I have something similar. They have been around for at least a few years now. I use it when working with beginning pistol students.

Mine is accurate out to about 7 yards (accurate meaning around a 6" group). Beyond that it can be way off.

This is what I have: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07NQXPQ2H

Why would I want a non-lethal weapon when dealing with such a lethal world. Who wants to be the guy that brings a paintball gun to a Glock fight?[emoji6]

What's the cost....$$$$

Not saying it isn't a possibility, but how do you know 100% when to use it rather than a lethal alternative? I think you always need the option of the lethal weapon. Even if you "blind" someone they can still shoot a gun, and it might be more dangerous to civilians if they can't see well.
Only perfect solution is for suspects to comply.

$350.00...............

Great video, but seems like an awful place to work lol

[tpack]

That would be like taking a knife to a gun fight.

[chrigging]

Don't bring a toy to a gun fight.

[youngbuck1]

That’s a hard no for me. Paintballs barely leave a bruise. Waste of money imop.

I don't want my wife trying to decide between lethal and non lethal. If she makes the decision to use her pistol that's on the other guy for making a bad decision.

I'm pretty sure there is something in the news about a young lady using the wrong one.
Not to mention you get into the issue of why didn't you use non lethal when you had the option. These are split second decisions, I just want her to live through it.
