IMHO, most of the munitions are over-hyped, and all of them are very expensive. Some I could see uses for, like the flare rounds, but otherwise, I am rather skeptical of the lot. OTOH, if I ever have $100, and need a box of armor-piercing slugs, I know where to look.

If you look on gunbroker.com and do a search for 12ga ammo, you can find all sorts of stuff. Pepper spray, some sort of tiny darts, flare, etc. I am not sure if some of those are any good for the gun, but it might be interesting to watch someone try, why don't you make a video of the pepper spray one?

I'd be scared to put half of that **** in a gun. Seems to be screaming for a kB to happen. Stick with the tried and true.
