FAQ

Q: Why do I need spare magazines?
A: In a self-defense situation, 5 rounds may not be enough. Spare magazines allow you to quickly reload and continue defending yourself without fumbling with individual projectiles. Professional security and law enforcement always carry spare magazines - it's a critical part of being prepared.

Q: How many spare magazines should I have?
A: We recommend at least 2 spare magazines (this set) in addition to the magazine that came with your launcher. This gives you 15 total rounds (3 magazines x 5 rounds) which is sufficient for most self-defense scenarios. Many serious users carry even more.

Q: Can I use these magazines in my Byrna CL?
A: No. The Byrna CL uses .61 caliber projectiles and requires .61 caliber magazines. These 5-round magazines are for .68 caliber launchers only (SD, LE, EP, HD, SDXL, HDXL).

Q: Do these magazines fit the Byrna TCR or Mission 4?
A: No. The TCR uses rifle-specific magazines, and the Mission 4 uses 19-round coupled magazines. These 5-round magazines are designed for pistol-style .68 caliber launchers only.

Q: What should I load in my spare magazines?
A: It depends on your needs. Many users load all magazines with Pepper or Max for maximum stopping power. Others load one magazine with chemical rounds and one with Kinetic rounds for versatility. Consider your environment (indoor vs outdoor) and carry strategy.

Q: Do these magazines fit in Byrna Mag-Defenders?
A: Yes! Byrna 5-Round Magazines fit flush in Byrna Mag-Defenders, which are magazine carriers designed to securely hold your spare magazines on your belt or gear.

Q: How do I practice magazine changes?
A: Practice dropping the empty magazine and inserting a fresh one until it becomes second nature. Use training ammunition (Kinetic or Pro Training) and practice in a safe environment. Work on speed, accuracy, and reloading under stress or while moving.

Q: Can I leave magazines loaded for extended periods?
A: Yes. Byrna magazines can be left loaded for extended periods without damaging the magazine or projectiles. However, if using Eco-Kinetic projectiles, do not store them in magazines due to moisture sensitivity.

Q: How many rounds do I get with this set?
A: This set includes 2 magazines, each holding 5 rounds, for a total capacity of 10 rounds. Combined with the magazine that came with your launcher, you'll have 15 total rounds ready to fire.

Q: Are these the same magazines that come with my Byrna launcher?
A: Yes! These are the exact same 5-round magazines that come standard with Byrna .68 caliber pistol launchers. They're professional-grade magazines used by law enforcement and civilian users alike.

Q: Can I mix different projectile types in one magazine?
A: Yes, you can load different projectile types in the same magazine (e.g., 3 Pepper rounds and 2 Kinetic rounds). However, remember which rounds are loaded where, as you'll want to use the appropriate round for your situation.

Q: What's the best way to carry spare magazines?
A: Use a Byrna Mag-Defender (magazine carrier) on your belt or bag for secure, accessible carry. Alternatively, keep spare magazines in a pocket, bag, or vehicle. The key is having them accessible when you need them.

Q: Which Byrna launchers are compatible with these magazines?
A: These 5-round magazines are compatible with all Byrna .68 caliber pistol-style launchers including SD, LE, EP, HD, SDXL, and HDXL. They are NOT compatible with the CL (.61 caliber), TCR, or Mission 4.

Q: How do I load projectiles into the magazine?
A: Loading is simple - insert projectiles one at a time into the top of the magazine, pressing down until each round is seated. The magazine spring will compress as you load. Load all 5 rounds for maximum capacity.

Q: Should I carry different ammunition types in different magazines?
A: Many users do! A common strategy is to load one magazine with chemical rounds (Pepper or Max) for serious threats and another with Kinetic rounds for indoor use or less-lethal scenarios. This gives you versatility for different situations.

Q: How fast can I reload with spare magazines?
A: With practice, you can reload in 2-3 seconds. Press the magazine release, let the empty magazine drop, insert the fresh magazine, and you're back in action. Regular practice makes magazine changes fast and automatic.

Q: Do I need to buy projectiles separately?
A: Yes. This set includes 2 empty magazines only. Projectiles (Pepper, Max, Kinetic, or Pro Training) are sold separately and must be purchased to load your magazines.
