In my professional opinion , coming from a non professional.

Having something that looks like a gun for protection , should shoot real bullets , like a real gun.

Having something that looks like a gun for protection

This was my initial thought, looking like a gun could get someone shot with real bullets.

If you can have a gun, use a gun. If it is absolutely impossible to have a gun, then I suppose it's better than nothing.

If you need to use lethal force, nothing works quite like a gun.

If you don't need lethal force...Taser and/or a dog work really well. Anyone who has ever been in the vicinity of deployed pepper spray or pepper ball, will be affected by it. Regardless of who you are...aggressor or defender....you get pepper sprayed as well.

That thing's okay until someone uses it as NON-lethal.....

....and the attacker loses an eye.

Don't see it
Brandishing what appears to be a firearm better shoot like a firearm

When you need to protect yourself not using co2 to do it
IF you are not legal to own then better than nothing perhaps

If that thing solves your problem then you probably didn’t need to use a gun in the first place.
