*PLEASE NOTE - The Byrna EP Launcher DOES NOT feature an external safety
Byrna's Essential Pistol provides users with a no-frills all business self-defense tool at the most affordable price of any of Byrna's .68 caliber launchers. The EP is 0.375 inches narrower than the Byrna SD but uses the same form factor and patented pull-pierce technology as the SD.
The EP is attractive to firearm enthusiasts that are used to handguns without an external safety. Removing the safety eliminates the number one user error - trying to fire the pistol without disengaging the safety.
