The gun in the OP is a paintball gun repurposed to shoot salt. It's a Tippmann TiPX. For a paintball gun, it's pretty cool (magazine fed, runs off a 12gr internally). For self/ home defense, it's gay.
 
Can't figure why they need funding of $75,000. It couldn't cost that much for the makers of simunitions to simply replace the lipstick marking goop in their pistol rounds with "CS" irritants.
 
Dumbest thing I've ever seen. I couldn't help but notice that if the salt round was so effective out to 5 feet, how are they planning to avoid being contaminated by their own rounds when fired at close quarters?
 
Its just like any other chemical spray really, the only difference is the delivery mechanism.

BTW- It does not fire salt, as in sodium chloride. "Salt" is the brand name for the company. It fires some variant of CS, or other chemical irritant (which probably is a "salt" of some sort).
 
Weekend special I saw they have. Order now and get free tactical bags for salt gear.

I think it's an interesting product, but the proprietary ammunition is a deal breaker. There are also liability issues.

Judge, I wasn't trying to rob them, I was jus' askin' for directions. They invited me in for hot cocoa and assaulted me! They had a Confederate flag on the wall and called me racist names!

Jury awards him $100k for long-term damages as a result of being exposed to this "chemical". Also the whole concept about being in fear for your life, but not fearful enough to use lethal force, so was any force even necessary? Only takes a shifty social justice warrior lawyer and a gullible jury to turn your clear cut case of self-defense into a hate crime against a disadvantaged angel that didnu nuffin. Before you blink your eyes, you go from being a homeowner to being the Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
