Zarc® Enforcer™ X3 Self Defense System
Protection At A Distance™ — A .68 caliber, CO2-powered less lethal launcher built on Zarc®'s APS™ (Advanced Propelled Solutions) platform.
The Zarc® Enforcer™ X3 gives responsible individuals a personal protection option built around distance: accurate direct engagement up to 60 feet, with Vexor® VPS™ (Vexor® Projectile Systems) projectiles capable of traveling up to 175 feet. Muzzle velocity exceeds 355 FPS (varies by projectile), chronograph-tested.
No permit, background check, or license is required to purchase or own the X3.
- Direct engagement up to 60 ft; VPS™ projectiles capable of traveling up to 175 ft
- Semi-automatic, CO2-powered, .68 caliber operation
- Compatible with the full Vexor® VPS™ projectile family
- Built by Zarc International®, ISO 9001 Certified
Why Distance Matters
Most handheld personal protection tools require close contact with a threat. The X3 is built to provide a defensive option at greater distance, giving you additional reaction time and response options for home and self defense.
- Increased stand-off distance versus handheld products
- Additional reaction time in a high-stress situation
- A dedicated platform for training and preparedness
- Lightweight, compact design (1.13 lb, 9 in overall)
Engineered for Performance
