I think that Mr. Norm wanted to sell some BB Darts, so he had the parts guys get what was needed and they put it together. I think the magazines took the story, added some drama and ran with it. All the parts were there, anyone could have done the same, he just got the ink. Not knocking Mr. Norm, glad he did it.
Not knocking him either...he just never denied the story and rode it to some notoriety and $$$. Just bothers me every time I hear the "story" and know its bunk. It just amazes me how the story keeps going and is never widely corrected.
