Beeman BP50 vs. Byrna CL: Less Lethal Launcher Value and Power?

I unbox and test the Beeman BP50 straight out of the box and put it head-to-head with a Byrna CL — real chrono numbers, ammo discussion, and practical takeaways. This video focuses on kinetic performance (joules vs FPS), magazine/capacity differences, and real-world recommendations: is the budget BP50 actually better value than the popular CL? ► Watch next:    • Byrna CL Joules Per Square Inch: Why it's ...   ● How the BP50 performs straight out of the box ● Real chronograph numbers with different ammo (riot balls, rubber steel) ● Why FPS alone is misleading — how ammo weight changes kinetic energy (joules) ● Size, capacity, CO₂ setup, and practical carry considerations ● My final pick and when to choose kinetic vs chemical rounds Timestamps 00:00 — Intro / Unboxing 00:26 — Plan: Tests & Comparison 01:29 — Specs on the Box 02:51 — Box Contents 03:47 — Magazine & X68 Similarity 04:28 — Sights / Top Rail 06:18 — CO₂ System & O-ring 07:11 — Ammo Types Explained 09:58 — Joules vs FPS (Why Weight Matters) 11:59 — Feeding / Capacity Check 13:11 — Size Comparison (BP50 vs CL) 18:41 — BP50 Chrono Results 24:12 — CL Chrono Results 31:28 — Side-by-Side Comparison & Verdict 34:14 — Rubber Steel Ball Test 40:44 — Accessories & Mounts 41:54 — Final Thoughts Short summary / Verdict Kinetically the Beeman BP50 performs very well for its price — excellent value for kinetic ammo — while the Byrna CL is stronger in chemical load per shot but shows inconsistent and weak kinetic numbers in our tests. Testing the Beeman Protect BP50 .50 cal less lethal launcher against the Byrna CL .61 cal launcher Comparing Price, Power, and Size of these two launchers. How many Joules? $119 vs. $549?
