With the proliferation of drones everywhere, there will come the time that they might turn into public nuisance if they are used recklessly. In recent times, authorities are concerned about drones flying into airspaces around airports, crowded spaces, and getting in the way of first responders. In neighborhoods, people are starting to get riled up seeing drones over the backyards and feel that their privacy is being invaded.

While there are no outright calls for banning civilian drones, there will be those who will take it upon their hands to prevent drones from being privacy nightmares. In one case, a Kentucky man shot down a drone with his gun after one of his daughters, who was sunbathing, told him that a drone was hovering over their property.

Now one company has released the ammo specifically designed to take down pesky drones and then some.

In a press release, River Snake Shooting Products announced that they are releasing gun shells designed to shoot down drones. Here is the description of their product, called the "Drone Munition":

Drone Munition was created in conjunction with targeting aerial drone/quad copter training and range shooting systems.  In addition, the product also generates a discussion on the growing drone market in general. If you haven’t been paying attention to the news, or haven’t noticed the exponential growth of drones in the skies around the country, you should start! Drones are now a $50 million industry and growing daily. The Drone Munition brand provides a cost effective solution for self defense as the Federal Government and States scramble to take action. Self defense applies whether it is a person based or machine based threat and is just as important as protecting your family! Our shot shell solutions provide a cost effective way to do just that! From standard lead free solutions to electronic defeating loads (coming soon), and extended range platform, we have the products to defend against the most sophisticated tech! As responsible drone owners ourselves, we recognize the largest threat to responsible drone fliers are irresponsible drone fliers!  Drone Munition is also a fantastic hunting load for small game, waterfowl, and turkeys!

DISCLAIMER: Federal, State, and Local laws dictate when, where, and in what situations a firearm can be legally discharged.  We are in no way condoning the use of this product for illegal activity! Be sure to follow ALL firearm laws at all times!

The Drone Munition comes in 2 shot and BB varities and being lead free, they are safe for the environment and can also be used to shoot game animals.
The company also cited another danger that drones might pose, a drone was equipped with a Glock Pistol that can be fire remotely. Thus, you can never tell if that drone hovering above you is a harmless camera drone or a drone that may just rain bullets on you:

For now only drone owners in the U.S. may have to worry about flying their expensive toys in neighborhoods many home owners are also gun owners. Even for those going into product delivery business using drone such as Amazon.com might have to worry about such ammo. Who knows? Someone with a shotgun with Drone Munition might think of shooting down delivery drones to get those goodies in them.

Still, for Drone Munition users, they might want to think twice before aiming their shotguns at the drones. The FAA has come out against shooting down drones as there is a possibility of collateral damage such as property damage or injuring persons due to falling objects, or worse, collide with other object in the air that might contain human passengers.

For Drone owners, it's really best to use drones responsibly and fly these in areas where they are allowed by authorities. If they can’t avoid flying over other people's properties, the best thing is to inform them ahead and assure that them they are not to take videos of them without their knowledge. Perhaps it's always best to refer to Drone Etiquette or Drone Code when flying drones.
