On this episode of, If They Only Had A Byrna… A man in fires a spray of bullets from an AR 15 at suspected car burglars, injuring one.

This last month in Antioch, Tennessee, a man witnessed two subjects attempting to break into his vehicle as it was parked in the apartment complex lot. He subsequently retrieves his AR 15 and fires multiple rounds at the suspects, hitting one of them in the leg but also hitting 4 vehicles in the parking lot with multiple rounds.

Police subsequently responded and seized the shooters rifle. While the suspect who was shot was only wounded the shooter will likely face multiple criminal charges.

If they only had a Byrna… the car owner could have used the mission 4, a launcher modeled after the AR 15 pattern to deliver as many as 60 rounds on one co2 cartridge of Byrna max or pepper at the would be car burglars. Even if some of his rounds missed, the resulting cloud of chemical powder would have saturated the area and rendered the criminals incapacitated. Stray rounds from a mission 4 also would not have damaged other residents vehicles or possibly killed someone, making it a much safer and effective use of force.

It’s important to remember that any forced used against another person, even in self-defense and especially in the defense of only property must be reasonable, which will be difficult to prove in this case. Remember, be smart, be safe, and be Prepared to Defend.
