Personally, I wouldn't waste good ammo on something like this. These would be great to give to the person you "love" or hate, for Christmas. These are worse than coal in your stocking. :lol: :lol:

If I had a pump action handy with a selection of birdshot size 9 I'd definitely go for the Edison as 1 shot from 30 yards would easily reduce it half-inch pieces.

The victrola really is to be used if you'r going for practice and really need a satisfying target to empty your Glock magazine.

I would skip both and opt for a Crap-O-Phone... :roll:

I'd rather have the shrapnel than coal in my stocking they have so much plastic in them they'll probably burn better than coal. :lol:
