SABREHome Defense Projectile Launcher, Large Size with (7) 0.68 Cal. Impact Projectiles, 40% More Stopping Power for Extra Home Protection, 6.89”W x 8.56”H, Holds Up to 7 projectiles

Hello, we purchased this non lethal weapon simply as a warning weapon for anyone intending harm in our home or even as assistance to bear spray on a rogue mountain lion or bear charging our dog in the hills. Even though this weapon is probably not going to be the only end all to being attacked by a real gun or dangerous wild animal, this non lethal weapon is powerful and dangerous for what it is and should be used to assist a lethal weapon if needed and hopefully deescalate a violent situation before lethal force is required. This gun packs a serious punch and you do not want to get shot with even the non pepperball reloads within ten feet. The projectile launcher is well made, the CO 2 and projectiles are easy to load and the customer service has been consistently professional. Excellent for wild, nuisance creatures around your home that you would prefer not to kill, or letting an intruder know, it will not get better for them if they do not leave. Please note, this non lethal gun could actually kill just about anything you point at from close range and is not to be underestimated in the damage it can do. We were impressed with the power during our initial target tests and the damage done to a solid oak tree from fifteen feet. This weapon should be respected and always stored safely. We feel this projectile launcher would deter most common attacks and we highly recommend this Sabre projectile launcher as a non lethal weapon. Thank you,Eric

Whoa! This is awesome. The pictures are going into, and out of, 1/2" drywall at about 25'. I would not want to be on the receiving end of this baby. Also, I loaded the CO2 yesterday and it still had juice. No leakage.

I bought this item for self defense out of state. This launcher came exactly as it looks in the photos. My wife and I tested it and it worked very well. It's accurate and powerful. It's a bit larger than a regular gun, but does fit inside my comfortac belly band. The only downside is the Co2 cartridge needs to be punctured for the magazine to be properly inserted and ready to use, as opposed to the Byrna which doesn't puncture until the trigger is pulled. But for the price difference, I'd consider that a small tradeoff. Also, in the description of the product is says black. However, it came yellow like the picture. It would be more intimidating of it was black. Neither of these things bother me enough to take a star away as it works very well.

When you might need this to run someone away from your door seaking to harm you. This is the one you want....Great product.

This is a very good, very affordable product; it works as it's supposed to, but living in a very restricted State, the 'pepper ball' option is not legally obtainable, which may not perfectly deter a would-be assailant.I'm a BIG supporter of defending oneself in extremely dangerous circumstances, but if self-defense is not protected by the law, then this product would be the next best thing. With this product, you can ensure that you can legally defend yourself, but only if it can actually deter the assailant.Since I have only tested this product on metal targets, I cannot say if it'll be enough to deter someone without the 'pepper ball' option in my restricted State. Living in the State of California, 'pepper ball' projectiles are not legal to own (at the time of this review), and it is this fact that makes me believe that the product cannot fully protect someone. To ensure the best result in such a State, you must be accurate at hitting weak points and be lucky that the assailant runs away and does not come back after the first shot.Accuracy may be an issue both in the experience of the user and the function of the launcher. The launcher is pretty easy to use, just load, reload, and point and shoot. Loading the 12g CO2 cartridges and the ammo is very simple and easy to do. However, actually shooting and being accurate will take time to learn. The fiber optic sights only adjust elevation, and tests have shown that anything closer than 20 feet, the optics cannot adjust precisely to the target. The trigger pull isn't heavy, but trigger travel after the wall can cause enough movement to throw off your aim. My advice for all users: 1. Purchase more practice rubber rounds and practice, 2. Purchase extra mags for best coverage, 3. ONLY use top-brand CO2 cartridges for the best performance out of the launcher.The included 12g CO2 cartridges performed well. They managed to fire all 7 projectiles from one magazine, but only when taking slow and accurate shots. Firing multiple shots quickly will freeze the CO2 cartridge, causing jams with the launcher. While using an off brand 'ASG' CO2 cartridge, rubber projectiles jammed after the 3rd quick-firing successive shot.Some of the things that I liked about the launcher: you can see if there is a projectile in the chamber, but the mag stopper and rubber projectiles are both black, so it can be hard to see if there is another rubber projectile ready to fire or is empty. There is no gas leakage from the magazine, the launcher does expel gas when unloading the magazine. Lastly, the Picatinny rail is your standard Picatinny and can mount flashlights and lasers.One thing that I really don't like about the launcher is that it's pretty bulky. I'm a size small in gloves, and this launcher is pretty big in my hands. There's about an inch of space when holding the launcher between my thumb and middle finger. I definitely need both hands when stabilizing the launcher for shooting.***Items included in the package include: Launcher, Magazine, Soft Bag, Paper Target, Manual, Adjust Allen Key, 2x 12g CO2 Cartridges, 7x Black Rubber Projectiles, 14x "Paintball" ProjectilesAll-in-all, this product is one of the best of the cheapest self-defense launchers in the market, but without the 'pepper ball' option, it feels and looks like a paintball launcher. Again, I cannot say whether this product will perfectly defend you from a would-be assailant, but it'll have a lot more range and cause much more psychological damage than other defense tools. Be safe out there, and PRACTICE being safe!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Needed something for my daughter to protect herself and my grandchildren . Something non lethal .
