While I was not directly involved with the marketing of these products, I was in a position to know something about the marketing and sales of them. Unless there is a conspiracy of some sort, there is no plan to use these products to market guns to youths. Additionally, I am not aware of Soldier of Fortune being tied to any particular gun manufacturer. Kevin
