Flare- or very pistol is made for signal purposes and it is normally not thought as the dangerous weapon. In some cases, drug dealers or gangsters have used this equipment as the weapon. If the rocket hits the person, the results could be deadly. Almost every person in the world can buy this equipment for giving signals at the seas.

Flare-rockets can also be used for light some area. For law enforcement is made the anti-riot rockets, what gives CS- or CT gas in some area, and those weaponized versions of flare rockets are delivered to the riot police and some special entry teams in the police. The name of those weapons is riot-gun, but the very pistol is similar equipment. The CS means normal tear gas, and CT means opiate or other stun-gas, what is used in hostage- and other special situations. Also, deadly chemicals like phosgene and VX are probably installed in some modified riot control rockets.

If the targeted persons use injected opiates those rockets, that are loaded with fentanyl causes sometimes death.  Also, the magnesium-flares can be used to cause burnings and sometimes those rockets are loaded with iron oxide, or that rocket can be armed with thermite would that make serious damages for small warships, and the aluminum hull of that boat can start to burn. And the boats can even be sunk, if that burn would not take to control. Aluminum hull burns with  3500 degrees temperature and that means the extinguishing of the fire is very difficult.

But CIA has created the rockets that can shoot from a very pistol, and those rockets can be dangerous for material and personnel. Some of those rockets are equipped with HEAT (High Explosive Anti-Tank) or hollow warheads or they can be equipped with thermobaric explosives. That kind of rockets is planned to use in the covert-action operations.

That kind of modified flare-rockets can be used against armored cars and another kind of things like ammunition cargos. They are compact and deadly equipment, what can give to the special forces for their missions. Those rockets can also be equipped with sensors like nano bugs and microphones, what can collect data from the enemy installations.
