    Possible New Type of Bullet Button Tool (GPIK)

    First let me state, I have no relation to this product.

    In searching for a better bullet button tool I came accross this tool called a "Thumb Stylus." It's used for those who have touch screen pda's and have trouble hitting the right key. Regardless, I thougth it would be a great bullet button tool. I ordered one and below are the pictures of me testing it out. I wear it on my middle finger so that I can still grip the grip and use my trigger finger normally. BTW, its called a Gpik and can be found here www.gpik.net. Let me know your thoughts............ok for use as a bullet button tool?

    thats cool, but i would be a bit afriad of it breaking? does the polymer seem like a strong material for continual use, especially since it tapers down

      I have tested it out roughly 50+ times which I know is very limited but the end seems very strong. I also have a Magpul polymer bullet that I use as my regular bullet button tool and the Gpik end is as strong as the Magpul polymer bullet end.

        That's really cool... I especially like how they come in 4, 10, and 25 packs.
        And lotsa cool colours.

              I'd imagine you could wear this under a glove, and poke a small hole in the glove for the tip to poke through...

              Interesting find. Thanks for the link!

                  Your looking at the Ipik. That one won't work. Its too short and fat. I ordered both as I was un-sure which would work better.

                  The Gpik is the one you want. And that one only cost $3.95 at the bottom of the product page which comes with a lanyard.

                          This is exactly why I posted this thread. Legal eagles, please help determine if this would qualify as a "tool."

                            A bullet or ammunition cartridge is considered a tool
