The sound of it firing is described as "the sound freedom makes". This isn't about hunting, or self defense- this is about making the weak feel like bad-asses, making the impotent feel powerful... in short its targeting and playing on the psychology of anti-social losers- Trying to sell it to the exact sort of people that shouldn't have guns.
