Application / Regulation advice home defense and Verney-Carron Flash-Ball

Post image

i was wondering with the violence increasing (i am in montreal, people break in houses is increasing) why Verney-Carron Flash-Ball is not allowed?

I check the law and I saw the joules etc but can we decrease the PSI of it? I know they're mostly associated with law enforcement in some countries.

just wondering if a company had release a news for an equivalent.

Edit: for **self-defense**

I think the phrase “home defense” is your answer. Firearms on this country are not for home defense.

Except they can be used for home defence. In the event you think your life is in jeopardy.

Yeah but you can’t buy it for that express purpose. So from the eyes of the government, why would someone need this?
