  There exist a number of models in the literature in which the weak
interactions are derived from a chiral gauge theory based on a larger group
than SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y. Such theories can be constructed so as to be
anomaly-free and consistent with precision electroweak measurements, and may be
interpreted as a deconstruction of an extra dimension. They also provide
interesting insights into the issues of flavor and dynamical electroweak
symmetry breaking, and can help to raise the mass of the Higgs boson in
supersymmetric theories. In this work we show that these theories can also give
rise to baryon and lepton number violating processes, such as nucleon decay and
spectacular multijet events at colliders, via the instanton transitions
associated with the extended gauge group. For a particular model based on
SU(2)_1 x SU(2)_2, we find that the $B+L$ violating scattering cross sections
are too small to be observed at the LHC, but that the lower limit on the
lifetime of the proton implies an upper bound on the gauge couplings.
