    Default "They call it the R.I.P. round for good reason...."

    This looks like another gimmick to me. Just one more form of frangible round that is made to look "badder" than previous versions to gain publicity and in turn generate sales.

    I'd bet they sell at $1.00 per round or more.

    Just looking at the round gives me doubts about reliable feeding.

    If it ain't heat seeking 10mm 1600fps boolits, I don't want it.

    Shoots little spikes of copper bullets outward. Maybe good for wounding but bad if you are trying to keep all the bullet within the target. My guess would probably be over $2 per round.(Looks like swiss lathe machine work) I'll stick with my current carry round.

    I know I was kidding.

    Looks like a 2-3 dollar per round jam

    I bet that is why the made the point to shoot them out of a glock 18

    Exactly what I was thinking

    Not to mention the spread on those pieces of copper is way too large. Who knows where those things would end up going if any one of them missed your target. It would be a real shame if Joe Schmo defended his life against some armed thug with this round only to realize a piece of his bullet hit/killed an innocent nearby the target.
