    Blah What is wrong with this picture?

    Seriously, look closely and see if you can tell how this ad is really not doing the client any favours.....
    This is what happens when some ad exec with no knowledge of the product does the campaign. Kinda funny how no-one picked up on it until after it was published!
    Brilliant.

    The ultimate 'safety' system....?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    I guess you'd have to know which way round the mag goes....

    All I can think is the filed down rounds may be an issue?

    Other than that, I'm with Sparrowhawk on this one...

    The bullet size is fine. The mag in the foreground is the wrong one.

    Thank you folks....

    I DON'T CARE HOW RELIABLE A H&K PISTOL IS... IF YOU PUT THE BLOODY ROUNDS BACKWARDS INTO THE MAGAZINE... YOU'RE GONNA HAVE PROBLEMS!!!

    The bullets in the mag would jam.

    PS I suppose the fact that I did not read all the posts makes no difference.

    Presumably, someone from H&K signed off the final proof as well... you'd certainly expect them to have more than a passing acquaintance with their product...
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    Yep, I was right. I feel pretty dumb, shoulda spotted that. I looked at it, but it didn't quite click.
