a complete meme, or are some of them actually decent in certain situations?

A complete meme, I saw a tranny shooting a gunpowder powered one, it blew golf ball sized holes in paper but was by far the loudest gun (louder than a .44 magnum) on the range and not very accurate. I’m not even sure what projectiles that thing shot.

I read the only useful ones are the pepper ones, as their impact hurt a little less but the pepper genuinely can stun someone and blind them for a bit. I never used any though as I don't have any need for one. The little ball hurt but not "stop the guy" hurt. the big ball are so big it may as well be closer to cruelty than actual non-lethal stopping power as these can literally remove a limb. Though I don't know if these really have a market in the US, they are developed more for countries like Europe.

I wonder if you could make lethal compact CO2 pistols that fire smaller projectiles. I know there are Air Pistols that are as lethal as a .22LR pistol and quieter than suppressed subsonic .22LR.

these gun shaped shits are a meme, pepper spray, a bright flashlight, the cable whip thingy or a collapsible baton are "better than bare fists" tier.special mention for the stun gun, a whistle or that rape alarm keychain thingy that japanese schoolchildren carry for the "psychological weapon" tier, which isn't a bad thing.a knife is in between the three.

>oc spray okay for dog deterrence or spraying and running. OC spray is an oil, so if you try to tangle with someone, either because you’re arresting them or you can’t run, you’re getting that shit on you. The blindness may make it harder for them to shoot/chase you, but you can just power through OC exposure, especially if you’re drunk or high.>taser Ive seen it drop the biggest baddest dudes and we all just saw tasers fail to impede a short fat abeula. you cannot power through a properly applied taser, it will lock down what ever area of the body it hits. Clothing fat and bad aim quickly defeat tasers. Ive seen a sufficiently high dude rip leads out of his chest, you really want to get at least one probe in a leg so they fall down.>byrno? pistol can’t speak to that style in particular, the pepperball launchers ive used are more paintball style, and that’s what Id want so I’m not limited to a goofy little magazine. This is an order of magnitude less effective in general and not concealable, unlike the first two optionsif less lethal weapons are your self defense plan, I hope you have a good running routine. they succeed often, but they fail occasionally, and that’s too much risk to make it your primary self defense tool.The certain situations where these tools are good you have a deadly weapon and at least one partner to rely on if the tool fails, using the tool if it fails will almost certainly escalate the situation.carry a gun, and don’t use it unless someone is actively trying to kill you, seriously injure you, or actively doing that to your loved ones.

Mace yourself and find out.

When it's life or death which is the only time you should use a weapon? A complete meme. I'd rather have a can of pepper spray or a stick.

Interesting one for you OP Schientod gas pistol from the 1920s which must have been rough in Germany, ithe barrel is on a bayonet style lug and it is a single sh ot it fired 12mm 'gas' (rougly 410) shotgun shaped cartriges. The paper carton it shipped in included instructions inside the lid that the user could ascertain it's effeciency by firing it into a room and walking through it holding their breath with their eyes open, after which the user would be 'confident in it's abilities'. It was as far as I know a commercial flop. It could also fire mini flares or with an adaptor cartridges for flobert garden guns. They also made a three barreled pocket pistol version which was likley even less effecive on its first shot.To answer your question, no I would rather have a club

Mace does wonders for non lethal compliance though.

weapons that work via pain compliance can fail if the target doesnt care about how much hurt you give them yes.

Pepper spray is the only one that will work 100% of the time if you land it in their face because the response is biologically wired to occur every time.

pic related is probably the best one. It mix all the good points of the pepper balls with the good points of a pepper spray. It shoot at very high speed a concentrated pepper spray coming from the ammunition, the range is also larger than the usual pepper spray and it can shoot 4 times before reloading.. The only downside is that they are hard to find in the US, and the ammo are super expensive due to being custom-made for it. But I think even a bear would run away from this.

Does a shotgun with birdshot or saltshot count as less than lethal?

These are stupid because if you use one of these on another human being there's a non-zero chance you're going to get bent over in court and thoroughly violated by Schlomo P. Shekelstein, Esq. III

I've had every less lethal used on me except bean bag shotguns and fuck that, they break bones. Pepperballs are a joke even out of a real paintball gun. It just feels like getting hit with a paintball, something I did for fun as a small child, and you cough for 2 seconds until the powder disperses. It's totally ineffective unless you're continually shooting at someone and even then it's just a distraction, it will not incapacitate. They're good for uncommitted rioters, like shooting a bunch of college girls protesting for BLM. I would not even bother on a committed criminal. Bean bag, 40, taser, or OC. Really OC is the only one practical to carry, but you'll still carry one that's too small.
