Generally excellent product. BUT the LE “launcher” has such a stiff trigger, it’s a challenge to fire with precision. It requires too aggressive a squeeze. This seems like an odd design “flaw”—disappo... See more

LE launcher a total disaster…

I bought the LE launcher last October what a disaster. I had to send it back 4 times, every time I got it back supposedly fixed it broke again within minutes, it shoots air. Byrna refused to issue a refund, they are thieves, $600 in the drain, The worst part is that Byrna knows very well the LE has a design flaw (look at the amount of complains on YouTube and Reddit), but they refuse to take the launcher off the website and redesign it, they keep selling it. Did you notice all the videos they show features the SD, but never the LE? They know the LE is garbage, they won't admit it. Byrna owner should be ashamed of himself for stealing money selling the LE.

Maria at Burna was a tremendous help to…

Maria at Burna was a tremendous help to me. After I had purchased the Burna LE and a number of additional Burna items and had checked out, after this I saw a pop-up that said you could get a 10% discount on your first order. I contacted Burna and left an email message regarding what had happened. Within 15 minutes I received an email that the discount credit was issued to my card. That is fantastic customer service, and I highly recommend this company for their prompt and friendly customer service! Thank Maria!!

Customer service

Both customer service representatives Kayla and Rachel have been absolutely professional, nice, product knowledgeable — I spent a long time on the phone with both of them on several days and ended up ordering two guns plus accessories, both myself and Dr Milan
In today’s world, rather today’s labor force, to have employees of this caliber is wonderful.
They definitely merit recognition!

Purchased a Target Trap for practice

Purchased a Target Trap for practice. After watching the video it failed the first time we attempted to fold it back up. Byrna responded and replaced it in record time. New one works fine.

Rachel McBride! What a pleasure chatting with her. She made sure I had all the right additions for my follow up order, and provided me a discount code as well.

Customer Service Super Star, Maria B.

Maria B. was super fast in answering my inquiry about my recent order. Not having to wait for days to get an answer to a simple inquiry makes me feel like Byrna is a company whose goal is to provide customer service as quickly as possible and Maria B. did a very good job at doing just that.
