At C2 Tactical, we are in the business of real-world readiness—and that means giving our clients options. In most cases, Lethal force is not always the right answer, and for many people, it may not be an option at all. That is where Byrna comes in.
We are excited to now offer two of Byrna’s most capable launchers: the Byrna SD and the Byrna Special Mission 4 (SM4). These are not toys. They are not novelty items. These are less-lethal, high-performance pepperball launchers designed for those who want practical, effective tools for home defense, personal safety, or professional use—without the legal, moral, or life-altering consequences of a firearm.
The Byrna SD (Self-Defense Launcher)
Think of the Byrna SD as your go-to, glovebox-ready, nightstand-stored non-lethal sidearm. Compact, easy to handle, and absolutely no background check required—it’s a game-changer for everyday civilians looking for peace of mind.
Key Features:
- CO₂ powered with a 5-round magazine
- Launches .68 caliber projectiles: pepper, inert, kinetic, and more
- Effective range of up to 60 feet
- No firearm license required—ships right to your door
- Optional accessories: laser sights, holsters, and mission-specific ammo
Why it matters: The Byrna SD gives you time, space, and control in confrontational situations. Whether you are dealing with a threatening individual, aggressive animal, or high-tension scenario, it is designed to de-escalate without deadly force.
The Byrna SM4 (Special Mission 4)
Now we are stepping up. The SM4 is Byrna’s most advanced launcher—a rifle-style platform designed for home defense, private security, and professional applications where presence, performance, and reliability matter.
Key Features:
- Semi-automatic rifle-style launcher with quad-rail and folding stock
- Comes equipped with a red dot optic and foregrip
- 20-round hopper-fed system with a selectable safety/fire switch
- Compatible with all .68 caliber Byrna projectiles
- Tactical feel and function, minus the legal complexity
Why it matters: The SM4 gives you everything you love about a modern carbine—ergonomics, accuracy, presence—without firing a single bullet. Perfect for professionals looking for an intermediate option between verbal commands and lethal force.
Who’s It For?
Civilians seeking non-lethal defense at home or on the go. Real estate agents, delivery drivers, and rideshare professionals. Security contractors operating in less-lethal zones. Families with safety concerns but hesitation about lethal weapons, and anyone who wants a force option that does not end in tragedy or trial
Final Thoughts
The Byrna SD and SM4 are not substitutes for training. They are tools—and like any tool, their effectiveness depends on how you use them. That is why C2 Tactical is proud to not only sell Byrna products but also offer Byrna-specific training to help you deploy them confidently and legally.
Whether you are not ready for a firearm—or just smart enough to know not every problem needs a bullet—Byrna belongs in your toolbox. Come by the store. Handle one. Get a feel for the future of less-lethal defense.
Stay safe. Stay smart.
