The RWS Umarex 2292300 Pepper Balls deliver reliable less-lethal defense capability for .43 caliber launchers and training pistols. These black polymer projectiles contain concentrated pepper powder that creates an effective deterrent cloud upon impact.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard rubber balls or paintballs, these pepper balls feature a frangible shell designed to rupture on contact, releasing irritant powder in a 3-4 foot radius. The black coloration provides tactical discretion while the precision-molded construction ensures consistent ballistic performance. Each ball contains pharmaceutical-grade oleoresin capsicum (OC) powder that remains potent for extended storage periods.
Key Features
- Contains concentrated oleoresin capsicum (OC) pepper powder for effective area denial
- Frangible polymer shell ruptures reliably on impact at velocities above 200 fps
- Compatible with .43 caliber paintball markers, training pistols, and less-lethal launchers
- Black tactical coloration for discreet carry and storage
- Precision-molded construction maintains consistent weight and diameter
- Extended shelf life with proper storage in cool, dry conditions
- 10-count packaging provides adequate supply for training or emergency use
These pepper balls perform effectively in temperatures from 32°F to 120°F, making them suitable for year-round deployment. Law enforcement agencies utilize similar projectiles for crowd control and suspect apprehension scenarios. The irritant cloud dissipates naturally within 10-15 minutes in open air conditions. Accuracy remains consistent out to 50 feet when fired from quality .43 caliber platforms.
