• The Byrna EP Launcher has a maximum speed of 300 FPS (Average of 265 FPS).
• The Byrna EP has a maximum kinetic energy

- The Byrna EP Launcher uses an 8 gram CO2 cylinder.

- The Byrna EP Launcher WILL NOT function with a 12g CO2 cylinder.

- Byrna does not recommend the use of Crosman brand CO2 cylinders in your launcher as they may not puncture correctly and can damage your launcher.

- The Byrna EP Launcher will fire up to 25 shots per 8 gram CO2 cylinder.

One of the most important things that sets Byrna's handheld launchers apart from the competition is Byrna's patented "pull-pierce" technology. This enables the Byrna to both pierce the CO2 and fire the projectile with the first trigger pull.

This allows your Byrna to sit for days, weeks, months or even years and always be in a "ready" state. Most other launchers pierce the CO2 canister when loaded into the launcher. Once the CO2 canister is punctured it will slowly leak out over 24-48 hours leaving the launcher inoperable.

With the Byrna EP and Byrna's patented pull-pierce technology you can leave your launcher, fully loaded, knowing that it will be ready to use when needed.

The Byrna EP Less-Lethal Self-Defense launcher has an effective range of up to 60ft.

- The only difference between the Byrna EP Less-Lethal Launcher and the Byrna SD is that the Byrna EP DOES NOT have an external safety.

- Maximum power and speed measurables are identical between the EP and the SD.

- The EP Launcher and SD Launcher bodies are the same overall size. The EP is slightly thinner than the SD Launcher because there is no external safety.
