Kel-Tec Marketing Fail

[Garufa]

Apparently, this ad for the Kel-Tec RDB Survival rifle was in a recent edition of NRA's Shooting Illustrated.

THAT is a piss poor advertisement......eewwww

And why is the guy covered in ice? Really you only drink your urine in the desert. And if you failed enough not to have water, you will probably not have a gun either.

Their marketing fail is their quality control. 

Which is a shame, their innovation is worth taking note. hopefully they will get their crap (or urine) together.

I think the gun is the ugliest thing in the ad.

It is in the new American Rifleman too. It made me laugh.

Just looked and it’s there, lol.

I saw it the other day in the Rifleman and thought it was a little weird...I just didn’t get it.

At least it got our attention.

How many folks approved that ad before it went to print?

[tacops]

"hello, marketing this is sales, how about a do-over?"

Not ice, frozen urine

I am betting that the guy that approved that advertisement is no longer with the company........

A quick search says human urine freezes at -182 F......I can't help being scientific....

Marketing guy:  What do you think of our new Kel-Tec campaign?

Marketing director:  Urine trouble.

They are just targeting their customer base.People who drink their own piss are more likely to buy a Keltec.

I think it's pretty funny and gets the message across if you understand the message and meme magic.

Talking about what? Some things aren't worth mentioning...

If that was the only question on your science test; you got an F. Check your work.

I am sorry. To be more specific that temp is what is needed (roughly based on a lot of variables) to freeze it before hitting the ground straight from the faucet so to speak. My mistake in not filling in the details.

I can state from recent first hand experimentation that -20 is not cold enough.

A box of whup-@$$ to go with the frozen urine
