At the Jean Pierre Fusil online gun shop, we offer several types of defence weapons: telescopic batons, alarm guns, tear gas bombs, brass knuckles, electric fists, etc. They can be used in different ways, with or without ammunition, for single use or reuse, and can be sold over the counter or regulated.
Currently, the flash ball is considered to be the most powerful defensive weapon available on the site.
How the flash ball works
This defensive weapon is loaded with rubber bullets of approximately 40 millimetres in diameter. Simply lower the barrel, place the bullet in it, aim and pull the trigger to fire. The flash ball can be equipped with two independent barrels, which allows you to fire twice.
- Please note: The flash ball is a weapon that is increasingly seen in the hands of law enforcement agencies during various demonstrations. It is also used by private security services. The flash ball must be used wisely to avoid accidents.
The impact of the bullet
The flash ball projects the rubber ball at 80 m/s and a maximum distance of 12 metres. The person hit has the sensation of receiving a boxer's punch. The kinetic energy of the ball is spread over an area of about 35 cm² on the body of the individual.
Legislation
The flash ball is powerful and therefore dangerous. It cannot be sold to just anyone. This is why it is classified as category C and subject to declaration after purchase.
To obtain it, you must of course be of legal age and provide proof of age:
- photocopy of the national identity card
- photocopy of proof of address less than 3 months old
- a medical certificate dated less than one month ago attesting that the person's moral and psychological health is compatible with the possession of a weapon
- declaration of acquisition, sale, transfer or possession of a category C weapon or weapon component (downloadable from the Public Service website).
