The G2R website claims the R.I.P acts as a full metal jacket manufactured with trocar angles, which means that the each of the eight shards has three angles which taper to a point - to 'penetrate the dermis layer more efficiently.'
'It is capable of going through barriers such as sheet rock, plywood, sheet metal or glass and still performs its original intent. The bullet shreds through solid objects and only then, expands its energy,' claims the G2R website.
The company's president, Cliff Brown explained to the
Blaze that a scared and lonely housewife worried about protecting her home is one of the target customer bases for the terrifying new ammunition.
'I wanted to create a round that would work well against a home intruder,' said company president Cliff Brown told the Blaze.
Flechette bullets operate in a different manner - they have tiny shards which act as spikes that penetrate the target and pass through the other side.
Rowe criticizes the R.I.P round because he says that because the shards of this bullet are copper, they won't pass through the victim.
He claims that they will more than likely come to rest inside the target - as witnessed in some of their promotional videos.
And furthermore, becasue the round is designed for 9mm handguns wielded by women, the R.I.P is a cruel home defense weapon because it will only cause maximum pain and suffering.
