Byrna EP Discontinued with honors

When it comes to personal defense, having options is crucial. Whether you’re a student or reside in a firearm-restricted area, finding effective ways to protect yourself is essential. Enter the Byrna EP Launcher, a less-than-lethal solution that packs a punch without the need for a concealed carry permit or background check.

The Byrna EP Launcher: Features and Specifications

The Byrna EP Launcher is designed for those who want a reliable self-defense tool but can’t carry a firearm. Here’s what you need to know about this innovative device:

  1. Compact Design: The EP Launcher is comparable in size to most concealed carry pistols. With an overall length of 7.28 inches, a height of 5.62 inches, and a width of 1 inch, it’s easy to handle and carry.
  2. Magazine-Fed: The EP Launcher features a 5-round magazine capacity, allowing you to have multiple shots at your disposal. A ball indicator lets you know when a round is chambered.
  3. No External Safety: Unlike some other models, the EP Launcher doesn’t have an external safety. However, an internal safety mechanism prevents accidental hammer strikes.
  4. CO2-Powered: The EP Launcher uses an 8-gram CO2 cartridge, which provides 25 shots on a single cartridge. Patented Pull-Pierce technology ensures that pressure loss is minimal during storage.
  5. Ammunition Compatibility: The Launcher accepts various Byrna ammunition types, including Byrna Pepper, Byrna Max, Byrna Pro-Training, Byrna Kinetic, and Byrna Eco-Kinetic. These .68 caliber rounds launch at 265 fps (with a maximum of 300 fps) and have a range of 60 feet. Upon impact, the Pepper and Max balls create a 5-foot dispersion cloud.

The Byrna EP is discontinued.

When speaking with a Byrna rep the Bynra has been discontinued and will no longer be for sale.

So what does that mean for a new compact Byrna?

Update: on the new Replacement and model will be as expected. The new Byrna CL.
