Umarex P2P Secure 68P Less Lethal .68 Cal Impact Pistol Table Top Review
Today, we are focusing on a heavy hitter in the home defense category: the Umarex P2P Secure 68P Less Lethal Impact Pistol. As is standard for our Table Top videos, we won't be doing any actual firing today, that’s saved for the upcoming Field Test, but we are going to dive deep into the design, features, and feel of this .68 caliber device.
Built around the paintball concept but strictly intended as a less-lethal deterrent, the Secure 68P is designed to handle everything from nylon and heavy rubber rounds to pepper, powder, and glass-breaker balls. Umarex also includes a fantastic zippered soft-shell case to keep the pistol and all your included starter ammo neatly organized.
Specifications
Projectile Size: .68 Caliber.
Firing Mechanism: Double-action only trigger.
Gas System: 12-gram CO2 (housed inside the drop-out magazine).
Capacity: 6-round removable metal magazine. (Available 9 round extended magazines)
Muzzle Velocity: Approximately 350 FPS (pushing around 19 Joules or 14 ft-lbs of energy).
Materials: Durable plastic/polymer outer frame and slide; solid metal internal housing, barrel, and magazine.
Sights: High-visibility, non-adjustable fiber optic sights (front and rear).
Build Quality & Design
When you pick up the Secure 68P, the first thing you'll notice is its sheer size. It has a much chunkier, bulkier footprint compared to standard 1:1 replica sidearms, but that extra mass gives it a commanding presence. While the outer frame and the slide itself are constructed from a tough, lightweight plastic, Umarex didn't skimp where it counts. The internal framework, the barrel, the trigger mechanism, and the fully removable magazine are all forged from solid metal, giving the pistol a very balanced, sturdy feel in the hand.
Handling & Controls
Operating this less-lethal device is straightforward and geared toward high-stress scenarios. Everything centers around the full-metal drop-out magazine, which houses your six rounds of .68 caliber ammunition. The 12-gram CO2 cartridge sites right under the barrel built into the slide loaded from the front (by the way the Magazine doubles as the CO2 tightening tool). Because the gun relies entirely on a double-action trigger and lacks a blowback feature, 100% of the CO2 pressure is channeled directly into launching the heavy projectiles making it worth the slightly heavier trigger pull.
The trigger pull itself is relatively smooth, though you will definitely notice a heavier initial pull on that very first shot once the CO2 is pierced. For added utility, there is a standard Picatinny rail located beneath the muzzle, making it incredibly easy to attach a tactical flashlight or laser to help you navigate dark areas.
Sights & Optics
To assist with aiming in low-light environments, the Secure 68P is outfitted with bright fiber-optic sights on both the front and the back. While they are fixed and cannot be adjusted for windage or elevation, they do an excellent job of gathering ambient light, ensuring you can acquire your target quickly when you need to most.
Performance Expectations
This impact pistol is built for raw stopping power. Pushing a massive .68 caliber projectile at roughly 350 FPS yields an impressive 19 Joules of energy. Whether you load it with dense nylon balls or heavy rubber rounds, you can expect significant blunt-force trauma upon impact. I am incredibly eager to get this beast into the indoor shooting range to test its actual chrony numbers and accuracy on a paper target. Perhaps there will also be a future penetration test on a variety of object.
Pros
Outstanding less-lethal alternative for home defense and property protection.
Huge .68 caliber bore size delivers maximum energy transfer.
Produces an intimidating 19 Joules of raw power.
Heavy-duty metal drop-out magazine adds to the overall weight and feel while allowing for quick reloading .
Bright fiber-optic sights are perfect for dimly lit environments.
Under-barrel Picatinny rail allows for quick mounting of tactical lights and lasers.
Ships with a high-quality zippered case and a starter pack of CO2 and various impact rounds.
Cons
The overall profile is quite large and bulky compared to standard firearm replicas.
The double-action trigger pull can feel a bit long and heavy especially on the initial shot.
Fixed sights offer no adjustability.
The lack of a blowback slide means it won't simulate the realistic recoil of a traditional firearm or have that single action easy trigger.
Final Thoughts
If you are in the market for a dedicated home-defense tool that you can comfortably keep in a nightstand, the Umarex P2P Secure 68P deserves a serious look. It trades the intricate realism of a 1:1 blowback replica for raw, unadulterated stopping power. The combination of its massive .68 caliber projectiles and 19 Joules of energy makes it a highly effective deterrent.
