Zarc’s Vexor Projectiles are potent pepper spray balls that stop defiant subjects in their tracks. Vexor OC projectiles contain Zarc’s patented Vexor V7 formulation. They break on contact, causing immediate incapacitation. These projectiles can be fired from any .68 caliber paintball marker, allowing law enforcement officers to use a less-lethal approach to control aggressive individuals and disperse crowds without causing serious injury.

Tactical Blast Strip

The T-460 Tactical Blast Strip consists of a 4-x-13-x-0.1-inch black plastic body with a red label and a 5-meter electric match. This stun device is intended to be used in a variety of tactical applications, such as hostage rescue.

The T-460 is instantly fired with a dual safety electronic firing box (ALSTCI sold separately). The device will cause disorientation from several seconds up to several minutes. Care should be taken to not detonate within five feet of individuals because it may produce significant damage to an individual’s hearing and eyes.

Next-Gen Taser

The new Taser X2 is designed by law enforcement for law enforcement and incorporates agencies’ most requested capabilities. The X2 is similar in size to the X26 but provides an immediate back-up shot for multiple targets or miss recovery using X-Connect technology. Dual lasers improve accuracy, and the warning arc with loaded cartridges feature helps to prevent a conflict from escalating. The X2’s power magazine is capable of 500 firings. The current metering capability of the X2 measures and accurately delivers the precise amount of current to maximize both safety and effectiveness. The self-diagnostics feature informs the user if the X2 is healthy or if it’s experiencing problems. The X2 is IPX2 rated to better resist harsh conditions, such as rain and humidity.

Less-Lethal Sidearm

The new FN 303P less-lethal pistol is the sidearm component of the FN 303 less-lethal system. With a six-shot capacity and an effective range of up to 25 meters, the FN 303P offers LEOs an accurate and reliable option for gaining control of non-compliant individuals without resorting to lethal force. The FN 303P uses a disposable, compressed CO2 gas capsule contained within each detachable magazine to launch its .68 caliber, 8.5-gram projectiles made of a non-toxic bismuth and a fin-stabilized polystyrene body. The primary effect of the projectile is trauma, but secondary effects can be delivered via a chemical payload. The FN 303P is equipped with both iron sights and laser sights, allowing the operator to instantly engage a threat under any lighting conditions.
