Abstract
The invention pertains to a weapon that provides a range control (), by means of which it is possible to set firing velocity, and thus impact velocity, of the ammunition or active bodies () to a distance to be discharged in such a way that, in particular, the non-lethal ammunition () continues to have a non-lethal effect. To this end, a type of pneumatic weapon () is described that, with the use of a shot pressure control, e.g. by means of a proportional pressure regulator (), and/or additionally in combination with breech technology and valve technology, has a continuously variable range control.
