"I can still conceal under my shirt w smaller magazine (5 round) wen I go out. Longer barrel w CL. XL, than w CL may help w accuracy. But shooting both my CL and CL. XL at distance of 15-18 ft … both are similar in accuracy."

The CL launcher is great
"The CL launcher is great but the Allen wrench on the magazine stripped right away."
I'm not exactly sure how
"I'm not exactly sure how to write the review. I love the product, but one of the Max rounds (I bought a package of 5 with my order) was so flimsy it broke while loading in the magazine. So, great on most of my order. Handle the Max rounds gently. I previously had the Byrna LE version with Max rounds and didn't have the problem, so maybe the . 61 rounds are more delicate. Anyway, it made me cry in more ways than one - they are pretty potent."

Q&A
- Is Byrna considering producing a CL compact launcher with a safery feature? I want to procure a CL but I think a " safety "is very important feature. Thanks, Michael, combat Marine.
- Byrna should consider adding a safety on/off component. That would make me more comfortable in handling a loaded unit. At this moment, I do not keep the loaded clip in the unit. This can waste precious time in case of an emergency. Flipping a switch is much quicker than installing a clumsy (face it, it is clumsy) clip. Please consider adding this element.
- Is there a laser sight available for the Byrna CL Launcher that fits in the CL holster?
- https://nakestores.com/products/byrna-laser-sight-red-or-green
- What is the trigger pull pressure?
- Approximately 3.5 lbs of pressure to trigger pull.
