During a recent visit to the Byrna factory, media personality Glenn Beck reflected on one of the most terrifying moments of his life — when his daughter found herself just feet away from chaos during a campus disturbance involving Charlie Kirk.
Beck described the panic that followed: he couldn’t reach her right away, and every unanswered call felt endless. When she finally replied by text, his first question wasn’t “Are you okay?” — it was “Do you have your Byrna launcher with you?”
As Beck later explained, he had always encouraged his daughter to carry her Byrna — a less-lethal self-defense launcher designed to stop a threat without deadly force. Though she didn’t have it that day, he emphasized how much peace of mind that single tool could have given him in those frightening hours.
Beck didn’t see his daughter until 8 PM, after hours of uncertainty. The relief came with visible signs of trauma — a stark reminder of how vulnerable we can be when danger erupts unexpectedly.
At Ungunn – Byrna Premier Dealer in Santa Clarita, we share Beck’s perspective: preparedness saves lives. You can’t predict violence, but you can prepare for it. Whether you’re a parent, student, or professional, having a reliable less-lethal option like a Byrna launcher bridges the gap between helplessness and confidence.
Our Santa Clarita showroom offers free Byrna demos, live training, and expert instruction so you can learn how to protect yourself responsibly.
Like Beck’s story reminds us — being prepared isn’t paranoia. It’s peace of mind.
