Am I the only one here that worries about using depleted uranium projectiles?

More toxic substances in your fridge than in DU projectiles.

According to this site info...there is no need to worry.  You get way more radiation from everything else around you on a daily basis.\n\nhttp://www.pc.ibm.com/ww/healthycomputing/vdt14.html

I wouldn't believe everything you read on wiki, especially things dealing with controversial topics like nuclear energy or stem cells.\n\nNow to answer your question, I suppose that depleted uranium could be used as a reflector in a bomb, but its effects will be marginal at best, lead probabally would be a better pick. Also if Uranium was a better reflector, you would be better off using natural Uranium than depleted Uranium. Its relativity easy to get both natural Uranium and lead so worrying about depleted Uranium rounds is kind of silly.

Yeah, but I wouldn't worry too much. \n\nWithout the pistol what's the worry about having ammo that also happens to fit a pistol?  It's having the pistol that's the real issue. Right?\n\nAlso .22 rim-fire is very low power, not that I want to be shot at by it! :)

The death yesterday of a former Russian secret service agent in London is a matter for the police and related agencies. I would not wish to pre-judge its cause or who was responsible. \n\nThe implications of the availability of poisonous, highly radioactive, materials are frightening. Individual assassinations are only one sort of resulting threat.\n\nWithout going into specifics, the lack of control of radioactive material after the collapse of the Soviet Union was a matter for great worldwide concern. Nuclear proliferation leads to several very serious concerns about the availability of radioactive material to terrorists from sources in more than one country.\n\nBefore people get ideas into their heads about the sale of radioactive materials, can I point out that these are very nasty stuff? Unscrupulous people selling them are unlikely to be fussy about health and safety issues and those buying them are likely to poison themselves, quite apart from receiving large doses of radiation. Not a good idea at all.

cause they just might be NUCLEAR!!!

In part yes. Not directly because of the launch of the missal because this Valiant Shield was underway before they had any idea of the rocket.  The military have these kind of trials every year in this area.  Nothing sinister about it at all.  Taiwan is another reason.  China another.  Russia another.  hell you are just looking for what is not there.  Do you see ghosts as well.

Yes, they shoot them, but the ammunition that they use does not possess the projectile only the explosive compound ("blanks").  However, human error has attributed to death on the set (Brandon Lee, Mark Heckstrom-I think that was his name)and I am sure others who I am unable to name!

You're generalizing - everyone doesn't want to destroy everything.  There's a great deal of destroyers out there though & it's sad.  Those few cause lots of trouble for the rest of us.

Uranium companies have been hot investments for the last year. I might be a little late to jump on the band wagon. \nCheck out this link.

I just took a look at kaylora's answer and frankly I don't see what the fuss is about. If this childish display of temper is how you act regularly, I too am worried about your ability to handle a rifle safely. Now I suppose you'll go and ask a snide question online about me, too.

ther is enough depleted uranium to make a cockroach nervous there

well im sure that if you look up something like how to make a bomb or anthrax or something that you probably get red flagged by the government and moniter you.  if you arent doing anything though whats there to fear.  i would rather sacrifice my privacy if its going to make the US a safer place to live.

There's this nuclear hand grenade, see?  It can create a crater 100 yds by 80 yds, see?  Only problem is that the average soldier can only throw a grenade 40 yds.\n\nBut, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W79  Anything smaller is rather pointless, since the amount of fallout and other effects makes using a conventional weapon more appropriate.

Good job buddy, now the goverment knows you are looking for AK57s.. why dont you ask: how to build a nuclear weapon? next time.. haha

Is this a question, or a US bashing, I'm not sure. I often ask myself that same question though. The most honest answer might be because we can control our technology, and we have the power to control proliferation too because we see it as a danger. In general, it's probobly not a good idea for every Tom, Dick, and Harry to have Atom bombs. Do you really think nothing bad would happen if every country had enough bombs to destroy the planet? Yea that would be swell. \n\nI do have to admit there is a certain irony to the United States being so controling about nukes. We say we can't trust others to have them, but who's the ONLY county crazy enough in the history of the world to actually use one... Yep.
