P2P Core Defense .68-Caliber Steel-Core Pepper Rounds
Prepare your compatible .68-caliber launcher with P2P Core Defense Pepper Rounds. Each defensive projectile combines a perfectly centered steel ball with 7% PAVA powder irritant inside a patented, frangible red-and-black shell.
The centered steel core adds mass and helps stabilize the projectile during flight. Upon impact, the coreβs inertia works with engineered fracture lines in the shell to promote reliable breakage and disperse the PAVA irritant into the immediate area.
The distinctive red-and-black shell provides quick visual identification, helping distinguish these defensive pepper rounds from blue-and-black inert training rounds and solid kinetic projectiles.
P2P states that its Core Defense .68-caliber ammunition is compatible with .68-caliber less-lethal devices, including P2P and T4E platforms. Always confirm ammunition requirements in your launcherβs instruction manual before use.
Each package contains 10 P2P Core Defense .68-caliber pepper rounds in a protective screw-top storage tube.
Safety warning: These rounds contain 7% PAVA powder irritant and a steel core. Exposure may cause intense eye, skin and respiratory irritation. Keep away from children and unauthorized users. Use only for lawful defensive purposes and follow all applicable laws and manufacturer instructions.
