Less than lethal defense technologies for the commercial space have been underrated, because they generally require proximity to the threat in order to be effective. Self defense requires incapacitation of the threat before it can get close enough to you to harm you and whatever tool you chose must meet that criteria consistently and reliably. SABRE Personal Safety Equipment brings to market less lethal technologies that are versatile and effective. While at SHOT, I had the opportunity to meet Meghan with SABRE and received an overview of the company’s SL7 pepper ball launcher.
The Launcher SL7 deploys a series of maximum strength red pepper powder projectiles, from a safe distance of 66 feet (20 m), designed to deter home intruders. An easy-to-use pepper spray gun, it provides effective protection from a distance. The SL7 SABRE Pepper Spray Launcher has no recoil and does not require perfect aim as the projectiles will burst on impact; releasing up to seven projectiles of maximum strength pepper powder saturating the area with a 6′ (2 m) pepper cloud.
