👉 A chip weapon, often referred to as a chip gun or chip cannon, is a compact, handheld device that fires small explosive chips, typically made of high-explosive metal, at high velocity. These weapons are designed for personal defense and are commonly used by law enforcement, military personnel, and civilians in self-defense situations. The chips are usually propelled by compressed gas or a small explosive charge, allowing the weapon to fire multiple rounds quickly and quietly. Chip weapons are valued for their portability, ease of use, and ability to incapacitate threats without causing significant collateral damage. However, their use is heavily regulated in many jurisdictions due to concerns over public safety and potential misuse.
