Another slam?

I thought by now you'd run out of them. Or is this a retread.

I haven't read this whole thread, and perhaps you have already heard my particular criticism of your product many times.

This is a bad idea that I would never buy.

With the same amount of thought that it takes to stow a gun loaded with your bullet, one could simply stow the gun with no bullets in it. There is zero benefit to an accidental (child) shooter firing this gun over an empty one. In fact, if you stow an otherwise loaded revolver with this bullet in the first chamber and the child happens to open it first in handling it, they now have a one in six chance that the revolver would be closed with a real bullet in the hopper.

And I for one am not going to build the delay and hassle of trying to remove this one bullet before I have a useful defense gun. I picture a hurried handler dumping all the bullets. I don't know what kind of time I will have, but this is the last thing I want to be messing with. If I had kids, I would rather store the gun empty if I had to, with a speedloader accessible to me, but at least an easier process to master than this.

Under stress your customers are going to disable their best chance at defense and end up with a paperweight. I don't like it.
