A 4" long 50 cal bullet. I wonder how much they cost?
I will never apologize for being an American.

Not as much as missing. If they are worth shooting at, they are worth killing. And its a heck of a lot less than a hellfire missile.

Coming to your local law enforcement soon.
I could use a few of these to shoot out of my 50 BMG. :mrgreen:
