The great thing about those is that you don't have to actually hit the target, just something close by so the air is filled with the irritant

Personally I was more intrigued by the people in the picture. Seems they are HSI - Homeland Security Investigations https://www.ice.gov/hsi whose purview is immigration and deportation investigations but they have confirmed that they would not be carrying out those duties in their deployment to Chicago. All seems a bit dubious to me.

Nice spot, thanks. 120m/s, hot gun, cheetar! Guy with the old fashioned paintball gun must be "Yeah, but I don't have a MED, brah."
While the PepperBall launchers are at the personal end of the scale, the latest weapon being tested by the US Marine Corps is more like artillery: an 81mm non-lethal mortar round.
This is designed to distract, disorientate, dazzle and daze without causing lasting harm, much like a scaled-up version of the famous ‘stun grenades’ used by the SAS.
The new round delivers fourteen flash-bang devices in a tight pattern over a target area up to 4.5 km away. The submunitions have cardboard casings and produce a significant blast without dangerous shrapnel.
Awaits the "Look, you didn't specifically say that they were prohibited," from Airsofty McYouTuber.
