Cool stuff!

Some people seem to think about these as a bad thing, that it will promote things to kids. Well, kids still wont be able to buy it, any parent leaving bullets laying around for kids to get at is a moron, and bullets without the gun arent all that dangerous anyways, I dont see how anyone can honestly believe that these are a bad idea. Its just a marketing gimmick, they are the same as their varmint rifle rounds and self-defense pistol rounds, just in a different box with a different color tip. And they are the same price too! But Hats off to them for filling a Niche that nobody else has even looked at. And judging by how hard it is to find in-stock, I would say that it is selling really well.

Yeah, I think people who are offended by that are a bit up-tight. I mean seriously... everybody with two brain cells to rub together knows it's just a tongue-in-cheek gimmick...

And furthermore... when did marketing ammo "toward kids" become evil??? I sent plenty of rounds downrange by the time I was 8 years old! I take it guns and ammo will now be put in the same basket as tobacco?? (I know, it already is to some looney tunes!)
