    The product, in the report: BYRNA HD Non-Lethal Fire Arm Pepper Spray Projectile Launcher Model BYRNA HD Projectile Launcher

    Two Projectiles from my BYRNA Pepper Spray Launcher somehow broke open while loaded into the accompanying Magazine and spread the contents (Pepper Spray material) all over the Handgun, the holster it was housed in and the side door compartment of my truck. At a Stoplight just before arriving at my destination I removed the gun from the side door and set it on top of the Center Console so that I would not forget and leave the gun in my truck. I have a Concealed Carry Permit. After setting the gun down on the console I rubbed my upper right eyebrow to scratch an itch and immediately I was blinded by the Pepper Spray residue that I had apparently touched when moving the gun. I was able to make the right turn at the light and pull over and from my military experience I knew immediately what the issue was and began flushing my eyes with Potable Water. It took approx 10 minutes to get my vision back and stop the very painful burning sensation coming from the Pepper Spray residue.
