Big Brother is watching, and with modern technology, if Big Brother can see it, he can turn it into a giant smoking crater with just the press of a button.
Even your secret remote wilderness bunker is no match for today’s military drones. In partnership with Tacnition Ammo, Lucky Gunner is happy to introduce a new way for you to fight back against the All Seeing Eye with our new anti-drone shotgun loads.
Years of research and development have gone into these highly effective 12 gauge shells that can turn even Joe Biden’s double barrel shotgun into an instant anti-aircraft platform. Specially formulated propellant is capable of launching 9 pellets of depleted uranium rounds up to 1 km straight up into the air.
With accurate shot placement, this armor piercing buckshot will disable vital systems on modern military drones. At minimum, the force of impact will disable navigation systems, but in over 60% of our field tests, the drones were incapable of remaining airborne after contact with our
Anti-Drone Loads...

1 Km range? Wow.
i’m pretty sure this was an april fools joke
i’m also fairly certain there aren’t very many shotguns accurate @ 400-500 yds
Info sent to me personally by proprietor of LuckyGunner.com
Picture looks ‘shopped. Brass is taller on one than the other.
Damn I wish this were true.
Also notice there is no shot size listed on the box. This is an April fools day item from the Lucky Gunner site. It says so if you click the “add to cart” there.
Note the SKU number...
Ya never know sten.
With the proper propellant anything may be possible.
Still, whoever is the first to prove they took down a gubmint drone will immediately become a national hero.
OK they got me!!!
I was less skeptical because I was convinced they wouldn’t go so far as to list such a thing in their online catalog- but still wouldn’t be surprised if somebody made a such a thing- even if they didn’t work would sell great just as novelty
I have a great idea for payback on these guys next Apr 1st, all I need is some fake DHS letterhead lol
I can’t hit those stupid clay traps, how the heck can I smack a drone?
I don’t know if it’s an April Fool’s joke or not, but it would be a very clever marketing strategy. Take some plain old shotgun shells, call them “drone killers”, and watch the big, fat government contracts roll in as DHS scrambles to buy them all up before the public can get their hands on them. Absolutely brilliant from a capitalist point of view, and you get to make fools out of the DHS and fleece them. Because most high-velocity bullets can take down a drone if you hit it in the right place. The people in Pakistan and Afghanistan take down quite a few of them, to the embarrassment of the Obama Administration. And all they have are regular bullets, and the occasional homemade rocket launcher.
