Luckily for society, most people who shoot guns only do so when playing computer games. So I guess it's no surprise that someone would start selling ammo-shaped flash drives. Streetwear giant Crooks & Castles' Bullet USB takes aim at the novelty computer accessory market.
The Crooks & Castles Bullet USB is a 2GB drive made in the shaped of an AK-47 bullet, one of the most revered weapons where gun-nuts are concerned. Now I'm not a gun fan but they look kind of neat. The Bullet USB is gold-painted with the Crooks & Castles logo and is available on the company's website.
