Canadian Operator

This is the #Byrna SD. It's a #selfdefense #pistol that uses Co2 to launch solid rubber projectiles meant to stop an attacker.

While it's available in Canada, and technically "not" a "firearm" - is it right for you? Watch and find out, and share your thoughts below.

Sounds like in Canada if someone wants to harm you, your best weapon is to just say “I beg your pardon” or else you will go to prison for defending yourself even with a piece chopsticks.

Canadian here, I'm glad people are talking about the law its self for self defence in Canada. When I went and got my Restricted and Non Restricted PAL. During the course we had a moment to go around the class and handle these firearms and someone asked the question of "if someone breaks into my house can I use a firearm to defend myself" He didn't get the whole question out before our instructor told us that she wasn't in the position to provide a full detailed answer, but she's gonna go with no. To which about 80% of that class was filled with "What??? Cause this was probably the first time they were told this. Several students mainly of people between the ages of 20-30 years old did not know this about Canada and I really feel it's not talked about enough its not protested enough to get the point across to people that as Canadians we have 0 right to defend ourselves and that needs to change.

Govt doesnt dictate what your life is worth its your God given right to defend yourself and others from being hurt

@SevenSixTwo2012 3 years ago

If you need to ask someone for permission to defend your own life, you are not asking the right questions.

I just bought the LE for our home in Canada.
Wife and I will be doing some training on this so we can use it effectively.
We are both disabled and our area in is experiencing a increase in crime. Our car and our neighbors car was vandalized. Lots of people scoping cars and houses in the middle of the night. We are both disabled and I am worried for my wife's safety.
My take is if someone is breaking into my home at any time, they are a threat to our lives due to our health and disabilities.
So I will do whatever it takes to defend our lives, no matter what the government says. They are not here if this happens so.....ya.
I would rather be judged by 12 than be carried by 6.

Court over coffin anyday. I carry Byrna SD to protect from 2 legged and four legged coyotes. Understand. I'm Canadian but will not adhere to giving up my right to self protect.

I think all these non lethal self defense tools especially the projectiles are a terrific idea.

Rather face an assault charge then get stabbed by a crackhead

@darkirondiesel 3 years ago

You said "I wouldn't want to be in the position of defending myself in court for defending myself in my own home" which I think we can all agree, but if you were in a position where you were facing an attacker in your home would you defend yourself regardless of if you used a weapon or your fists, or would you just roll over and take what's coming? I know I would rather defend myself in my home and then in court then allow someone to harm me in any way shape or form.

I have 4 daughters and my wife to protect. That's all I'm going to say about what I think about the Canadian law.

great video very informing

@swoo5117 3 years ago

I highly agree with you. Canada is Not very knowledgeable about the brynas. I just got back to states from visiting family in Winnipeg and my bryna was Seized. Reason was the psi was at 300 and it was black and they considered it a replica of a handgun. So I was out 350$.

From what I have read about the bryna on safety the trigger will pull to Pierce the C02 with out firing it

@XCTERRA 2 years ago

I was contemplating about getting one of those less leathal for protection in remote areas where police tesponse is at over 2 hrs. Interesting points you brought up here in this video. However, i am still willing to purchase one before the "wako" in charge makes his last move. Great video👍👍

@gradycooper475 2 years ago

Thank you for the insight of the legal implications. This is my understanding of the trigger question you had; The trigger pulls in both Safe/Live settings because it will pierce the CO2 cartridge on safe to assure the first round has full pressure. That way you can leave a non-pierced CO2 cartridge in the "launcher" and it won't bleed down over time. It will fire on the first trigger pull (in live mode) even if you have not pre-pierced the cartridge but you may not have full pressure.

I just bought one of these a few days ago yes they are a little pricey but..the quality is definitely there and is a good idea for training purposes and just to have just in case because you never know.. I think this is a good idea to carry when you're in the bush for aggressive wildlife

@DiscipleX00 3 years ago

12:25 " I certainly would not want to be put in a position of having to defend myself in court for defending myself in my own home". So is it better to not have to defend yourself in court and be dead? I'll take legal troubles over death in this scenario. I don't live in Canada but usually, most legal systems err on the side of favoring the accused if the law is ambiguous. It beats not having anything, or in Canada, if it's too hard to get a gun, hopefully, this helps some folks protect themselves. Cheers
