They have bean bag rounds for 12 and 10 ga. shotguns.

I have a half dozen rounds of the 12ga stuff, someone gave me...one day I will have to experiment with the stuff and see what it can do.....set up some ballistic gel(or something) at close range and see it it does anything at all.....unbelievable that it was issued for any purpose other that crowd control

Probably just stun and bruise. They showed these on a show awhile back (don’t remember what it was). They’re pretty short range. Best guess: 30 yds. max.

I used one to break up a dog fight, once. Knocked a neighbor’s big dog down for a couple of seconds before he jumped up and headed home as fast as he could go. Heard later he had some bruised ribs, but was OK otherwise. Never came back to my yard, tho.
