Upon impact, the projectiles burst and create a cloud of powdered chemical irritants. Inhalation of the powder and eye exposure will cause respiratory coughing and eye irritation, respectively.

"You can't even breathe"
"All the skin around my eyes and face is just on fire"
"I tried opening my eyes and it burns even more now"
"For the first 5-6 seconds I couldn't even breathe, so much as run or anything else"
"I've been gassed before and it's not much different"
"That stuff is no joke"
INCAPACITATE VIOLENT OR THREATENING SUBJECTS
Upon impact, our chemical irritant projectiles explode, creating a 12-foot cloud of chemical irritant that rapidly disperses into the air to quickly incapacitate an attacker. Within seconds, the saturation area extends in all directions around the point of impact. Simply striking the ground in close proximity to your target is often enough to diffuse a threat.
