I take your point Mirko but we don't sell guns in supermarkets do we? (At least not yet).
The point is this so called solar scope is a dangerous product. It has a Baader film filter which is easily damaged if not stored properly. Unfiltered sun through a telescope will fry an eyeball faster than an ant under a magnifying glass.
