The ShockRound and PepperRound are new non - lethal rounds from SmartRounds Technology , LLC of Brighton , Colorado . Each circle is fit out with a duo of solid - state sensors which activate the shot when it leaves the gun barrel and then activate the payload just before it strikes the target 100 grounds away .
The ShockRound is basically a miniature concussion grenade , employing a proprietary chemical substance reaction to generate a hyperbaric N gas shock wave that daze and disorients anyone caught in its clap r . The PepperRound function much the same way , except or else of a concussive blast , the target is wrap in a capsaicin cloud , which sounds about as fun asbeing casually plunge in Mace .
Unlike stock lethal projectiles , or even “ less than lethal ” beanbag rounds , these rounds are marketed as being entirely “ non - lethal ” since the missile themselves do n’t actually come in striking with the object . That sounds corking and all — but what happens if the beat does n’t touch off ? Are you just shooting 12 - caliber slugs ? image exist , but the production run is presently being funded on IndieGogo , so we may never find out for tangible . And whatever happens , here ’s to hoping none of us find out in person . [ SmartRoundsviaDefence speak ]
