American Eagle Syntech TSJ: What Is Synthetic-Tip Ammo? - Gun Digest

Might have picked a color other than Lipstick Red, but this reads like interesting stuff.
Mr. McGuire: I want to say one word to you. Just one word.
Benjamin: Yes, sir.
Mr. McGuire: Are you listening?
Benjamin: Yes, I am.
Mr. McGuire: Plastics.
Benjamin
: Exactly how do you mean?
Mr. McGuire: There's a great future in plastics. Think about it. Will you think about it?
 
Poly coated bullets have been available for years in the reloading community. You can even buy them made in Canton, MS. Shooters Bullets - Cast Bullets and Cast Ammunition

The big difference is the cost vs shooting plated or fmj ammo along with getting less smoke, press fouling and barrel leading than shooting pure lead bullets... In other words, they are not breaking any new ground and any claim that poly coated bullets are better than traditional full metal jacket is suspect. I question their decision to use a red tip as in most instances that is the color of inert dummy rounds.

Was just walking thru the BX at Keesler AFB and stopped at the gun case. $360 out the door. Thought that was pretty good!
 
So I was shopping for shiny groundbreaking shovels on Amazon and stumbled across this under the "you might also like" options.

So there are a lot of these "Solvent Trap kits" on Amazon and the apparent use is to convert a D-cell MagLite into a suppressor of the AR variety. Who knew?
