 Berna's non-lethal pistol launcher equipped with tear gas and kinetic ammo can incapacitate an attacker for up to 40 minutes. No need to go DEFCON 1. We just need protection to ensure we can defuse the situation and drive the threat away. I train with firearms my entire life. Let me tell you, the pistol Berna sent me, one of the easiest to learn and operate. If you don't own a firearm, it's an amazing option to have.
