FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

MAXIMUS™ projectiles work with any device able to fire .68 caliber rounds.

We use a proprietary blend of PAVA and OC. These powerful irritants bind to the receptors that send pain and heat signals to the brain, causing targets to experience intense burning on the skin (as if exposed to scalding heat), temporary blindness, difficulty breathing, and extreme discomfort for up to an hour. There are no long term effects.

 

Projectiles remain potent up to 2 years from their manufacture date.

For long term storage, keep your MAXIMUS™ in a cool dry place, between 32-100° F.

Hard plastic shells used by other brands tend to bounce off the target without breaking, failing to disperse their contents. Some brands make up for their lack of quality with quantity, expecting you to fire multiple rounds until one works.

 

We’ve developed the latest advancement in non-lethal projectile design, using specialized materials and molds to ensure every ball bursts reliably on impact. This means you only need one shot to disperse your irritant. That’s protection you can rely on.
