Fifty minutes up the coast from Ocean City there is a Byrna dealer with an outdoor range — the only way to find out how one shoots before you buy it.
Coastal Highway north over the line, Route 1 through Bethany and Rehoboth, west on Route 5 at Nassau to Pettyjohn Road. Thirty-five miles, and out of season it moves properly.
October to April the drive up is forty minutes rather than an hour and a half, the range is quiet, and we can take our time fitting a grip, a laser or an optic properly. Book a session and we will have the range clear when you arrive.
Ocean City runs on a seasonal workforce and eight million visitors a year, and the security picture flips completely twice a year. In summer it is crowds, late shifts and long walks back to employee housing at two in the morning. In winter it is a condo building with the lights off on nine floors out of ten.
Both are cases where people want something real without wanting a firearm in a rental unit or a seasonal apartment. A Byrna is not classified as a firearm by the ATF, needs no permit and no background check, and stays loaded and ready for years thanks to the sealed pull-pierce CO₂ system. Maryland and municipal rules on carry are yours to check — ask your town, and ask us about the equipment.
You can buy a Byrna online in ninety seconds. What you can't do online is find out whether it fits your hand, whether you can reach the safety, or whether you'd actually hit anything under pressure.
Our outdoor range is open to anyone from Ocean City considering a launcher. Fire every pistol we carry back to back, feel the difference in size and recoil, and see your groups on paper. No obligation to buy anything.

It might, and it is worth five minutes before you buy. Laws on carrying CO₂-powered launchers and chemical irritants vary by state and municipality, and Byrna cannot be shipped to New York City, Washington D.C. or San Francisco at all. Tell us where home is and we will tell you what we know.
Yes, and that is the point of the place.

No. Byrna launchers are legal in all 50 states, are not classified as firearms by the ATF, and require no permit and no background check. You must be 18 or older to purchase. Note that in Delaware — along with Idaho, Illinois, New Jersey and Rhode Island — convicted felons are prohibited from owning one even though it is not a firearm.
We honor every Byrna.com sale — same price, no shipping wait. Active and retired military and law enforcement take 10% off with ID, though that one cannot be combined with a sale or any other promotion.
