About this Event
Byrna Launcher Training Class (Hands-On Self-Defense)
You can walk into a store and buy a Byrna launcher. But will you know how to use it when it matters?
This 2-hour hands-on training is designed to give you real confidence using a Byrna launcher for personal protection. Whether you already own one, are considering buying one, or want a less-lethal option to complement your firearm training, this class will teach you how to use the platform safely and effectively.
Students will train on two Byrna platforms:
• Byrna SD (Self Defense Launcher)
• Byrna CL (Compact Launcher)
Both launchers are powered by CO2 and fire kinetic or chemical irritant projectiles up to 60 feet. They are not classified as firearms and do not require a permit or background check to purchase. Participants must be 18 or older.
Owning the tool is one thing. Knowing how to use it under pressure is another. This class focuses on building practical skills through guided drills and instructor feedback.
What You’ll Learn
During this hands-on session, our instructors will cover:
• Proper handling and safe operation
• How to load your Byrna launcher
• How to install and manage CO2 cartridges
• Safety guidelines and best practices
• Supervised shooting drills with training projectiles
• Real-world response scenarios
• Maintenance and care tips
• How to practice safely at home
• Technique coaching and feedback
You will not just watch demonstrations. You will run drills and build real confidence through repetition.
