Obrigada a todos! Acho que não deve ser uma tradução tão literal porque em português não soa muito bem. Esta hipótese capta bem o sentido do termo.

tiro de um saco (ou saquinho) de feijão


Explanation:
Segundo a minha interpretação da frase, parece tratar-se de um qualquer tipo de "arma" não letal, como parece tanto estar na modo hoje em dia entre as forças policiais, que dispara pequenos saquinhos de feijão provocando dor mas sem matar.

Mas nunca vi em PT por isso o nível de confiança não é total.

Espero que ajude...
