More on the Plastic Gun

[Chip Fetrow]

The Gyrojet was an interesting firearm, but useless.

At close range the projectile was going so slow, it couldn't do  
anything.

At long range, because it was rocket powered with no guidance, it was  
incredibly inaccurate.

I have held one, and its ammo, but I have never shot one.  The owner  
said, basically, it is fun, but useless.

Also, the ammo has been amazingly expensive, and now impossible to buy.
