Streetwise The HEAT Pepper Launcher – .50 Cal, Up to 60 ft

Distance changes everything. “The Heat” Pepper Launcher lets you create space and end a threat before it reaches you. This compact, semi-automatic .50-cal platform feeds from a 6-round magazine and runs on standard 12 g CO₂, so it’s fast to stage, simple to operate, and easy to keep ready.

Choose how you deter. For compliance without irritant, load rubber rounds. For harder impact, use Quicksilver (metal-composite) rounds. When you need maximum standoff capability, 5% PAVA pepper rounds burst on impact into an irritation cloud roughly 6 ft wide, overwhelming eyes and airways—even if your hit isn’t perfect. With an effective reach up to ~60 ft and manufacturer-listed speeds near 500 fps, you can act from real distance and buy time to break contact and call for help.

The complete package is built for both practice and protection. Opt for the Complete Kit to get 10 pepper, 10 rubber, 10 Quicksilver rounds plus two 12 g CO₂ cartridges—everything you need out of the box. (A California-compliant bundle swaps in rubber + Quicksilver; or choose Launcher-Only and build your own load-out.) Start your reps with rubber rounds to learn point of aim and cycling, then stage pepper for defense so you aren’t learning under pressure.

What you’ll feel day to day is confidence, not complexity. Load the mag, pierce a CO₂, and you’re staged. Present, press, follow up—semi-auto cycling keeps you in control. It’s a smart, non-lethal option for home readiness, property checks, and travel where local laws allow—distance, options, and speed in one straightforward tool.
