Delaware’s only Byrna dealer with an outdoor range is eighty miles south of Wilmington — and it is the only place in the state you can fire one before you buy it.
I-95 to Route 1 south, then straight down to the Milton exit and west on Route 5 to Pettyjohn Road. Eighty miles, almost entirely highway.
Nobody makes this drive twice a month and we would not ask you to. Make it once — shoot every launcher, get the grip and the optic fitted, buy the projectiles and the CO₂ in bulk while you are here. After that, call us and we will ship.
Wilmington asks the most direct version of the question we get: what do I carry in a city where I cannot legally carry a firearm most of the places I actually go? Parking garages, transit, a walk back from Market Street, a commute that ends after dark.
A Byrna sits in that gap by design. It is not a firearm, there is no permit and no background check, and it is legal in all 50 states — but municipalities regulate CO₂-powered launchers and chemical irritants their own way, and Wilmington is a municipality. Check your city’s rules on carry before you carry anything, here or elsewhere. We will tell you what we know and be plain about what we do not.
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 Wilmington 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.
About the range →Grips, optics, laser sights and skin wraps — fitted and zeroed in the shop while you wait, not mailed to you in a bag. You can shoot it before you drive home.
What we customize →Owning a launcher and being able to use one are different things. We run familiarization on every purchase, and tactical training is available on request for individuals and small groups.
Training options →Everything below is on the shelf in Milton — no shipping wait, no carrier restrictions, no minimum order.

Byrna launchers are legal in all 50 states and are not classified as firearms by the ATF, but cities can and do regulate CO₂-powered weapons and chemical irritants separately. Check Wilmington’s own rules before you carry — and if you are unsure, your local police department is the right place to ask, not us.
Yes, and that is the point of the place. Our outdoor range is open to anyone considering a launcher — fire every pistol we carry back to back, see your groups on paper, and there is no obligation to buy anything at the end of it. Call ahead on (302) 339-9129 and we will have the range clear when you arrive.
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.
17049 Pettyjohn Road, Milton DE. Monday to Friday, 11am to 5pm — other times by appointment. Call ahead and we'll have the range clear when you arrive.
