The popular toy retails on the site for $19.99 and has a four-star rating from customers.
The order was delivered to Stephensons home on Tuesday, and the mom noted that it was surprisingly heavy. When she opened the cardboard shipping crate, she quickly discovered why: inside there were 16 boxes containing 50 rounds of ammunition each for a 9mm Luger handgun...

What if my son had opened it?!?!?!
Oh the horror!!! Ammunition!! Bullets!!!
M’am the sword is riskier than the ammo, and worth a lot less.

What if my boy had opened the package and seen them ?
He'd'a had a nice afternoon playing with some neat blocks that were shiney and had a manly heft to him
Probably would grow up to be a man in spite of your fearful girly ways

What if my son had opened the box?What a moron. What does she think that her son would load the bullets into his finger gun and shoot someone?
Instead of the bullets, she'll give him a Minecraft sword which the son will go around hacking and slashing things to death in his mind.

16 boxes for 20 bucks? I’ll buy it at her cost, so she can re-order the toy to teach her son to violently kill.
Bit of irony in her buying violent toys and then complaining about ammo.
