22 Training

Sworn members utilizing PepperBall launchers and projectiles are trained in their use by POST certi�ied less lethal and chemical agent instructors.

Hiring, training, and staging of equipment by of�icers is a cause for the projectile inventory being in a state of �lux. This is the primary cause for the inventory miscalculation from previous reporting.

The reported number in 2022 was approximately 1,000 projectiles and is currently 3,105.

Legal and Procedural Rules

Use is established under PDM – 308 Control Devices and Techniques policy and PDM 300 Use of Force. It is the policy of the CVPD to utilize PepperBall only for of�icial law enforcement purposes, and pursuant to State and Federal law, including those regarding the use of force.

Operational Use for 2023

• The PepperBall equipment was deployed by officers 9 times during this reporting period.

F . Less Lethal Shotguns and related munitions

1. Less Lethal Shotgun and Munitions: Less Lethal Shotgun is used to deploy the less lethal 12- gauge Super-Sock Beanbag Round. The shotgun is designed as a less lethal tool and is painted bright orange to distinguish itself from other weapons systems.

Description and capabilities:

a. REMINGTON 870 LESS LETHAL SHOTGUN, the Remington 870 Less Lethal Shotgun is used to deploy the less lethal 12-gauge Super Sock Beanbag Round up to a distance of 75 feet. The range of the weapon system helps to maintain space between of�icers and a suspect, reducing the immediacy of the threat which is a principle of De-escalation.

b. 12-GAUGE CTS SUPER SOCK BEANBAG ROUND, a less lethal 2.4 inch 12-gauge shotgun round �iring a ballistic �iber bag �illed with 40 grams of lead shot at a velocity of 270-290 FPS. CTS Super-Sock rounds are discharged from a dedicated 12-gauge shotgun that is distinguishable by an orange butt stock and foregrip. This round provides accurate and effective performance when �ired from the approved distance of not fewer than �ive (5) feet. The maximum effective range of this munition is up to 75 feet from the target. The Model 2581 Super-Sock is in its deployed state immediately upon exiting the barrel. It does not require a minimum range to “unfold” or “stabilize.” The Super-Sock is an aerodynamic projectile. However, accuracy is relative to the shotgun, barrel length, environmental conditions, and the operator. The Super-Sock is very accurate. However, effectiveness depends on many variables, such as distance, clothing, stature, weather, and the point where the projectile impacts.
