Flare guns for self-defense? (VIDEO)

It’s better than a sharp stick in the eye.

Maybe. Actually, I think they’re about even.

Watch out Feinstein will want to ban it and call it an Assault Weapon!

Before long, if the Fineswine and Obozo crew get their way, this may be all you can get.

I wonder how difficult it would be to make a buckshot/flechette load for one of those 26.5mm's? I know it wouldn't be "legal", but if all you had was a flare gun, and some unscrupulous individual came knocking at your door late at night, I wouldn't want to rely on a blue smoke canister or a flare to save my life, especially a flare that could burn down my house.

And I must not be up on my internet celebrities...what's with the robot thing?

If you watched the video you will see they have inserts for 410 shotgun loads. and 12 gage also have to register it !

If you watch some of the first videos on this channel you will find the Hi-Point Torture Test and they used the Sir Arthur Hi-Point rig for protection when firing Red Dot and Blue Dot Loads through a Hi-Point 9mm

@Luther... Yeah, that's the part I'm not so whoopie about, the registration part. Registration always leads to confiscation.
