CO2-powered less-lethal launchers, projectiles, defensive sprays, and accessories are sold to consumers, private security, and law enforcement. Revenue comes through company e-commerce, Amazon, retail stores, dealers and distributors, and direct law-enforcement channels.
CO2-powered personal-security launchers sit at the center of a product lineup that also includes projectiles, defensive sprays, and related accessories. The Byrna CL, LE, and SD serve consumer, private-security, and law-enforcement uses. Production is consolidated in Fort Wayne, Indiana after the South African manufacturing operation ceased.
Sales combine company e-commerce, Amazon, company-operated stores, domestic and international dealers and distributors, and direct law-enforcement channels. The mix has broadened beyond direct-to-consumer sales into retail and dealer locations. Manufacture and sale of launchers, munitions, and chemical-irritant devices remain subject to federal, state, local, and foreign regulation, including potential restrictions on pepper spray or tear-gas devices.
