My Dad has expressed interest in getting a pepper ball gun, which is referred to as a "launcher" by the manufacturers, for defense. I've suggested getting a firearm, but he's concerned about getting in trouble for killing someone.
I looked up videos online, and was initially impressed until I saw one with people getting shot who were wearing something heavier than a T-shirt. The pepper ball simply bounces off without opening, and doesn't even cause pain to the target person. But I'd like to hear from people on this forum who have had experiences with these devices. What do you think?
Also, I live in Wisconsin where it turns out we have the most restrictive pepper spray laws. But again, that's pepper spray. I have no idea if a pepper ball gun falls under pepper spray laws or not, and all the searching I've done for WI laws concerning pepper ball guns has turned up absolutely no results. Does anyone here know if they're legal here in Wisconsin?
