Wonder if this will then be used to fulfill the dream of shooting ice bullets which then melt inside the victim, leaving less evidence. If memory serves, I think the CIA explored this at some remote point in time. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Wouldn’t there still be evidence that some object penetrated the person and ripped them apart and caused them to bleed out? Surely the CIA has untraceable ammo at their disposal already? | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Well no, because these aren't just ice-- it's an ice composite. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Concrete's not strong enough to be used as a bullet either- you'd need something roughly the size of a shotgun slug. If you're going that big, you aren't going for subtle. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I believe they used a different frozen compound than water, but yes. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Mythbusters busted ice bullets. IIRC, the ice didn’t tolerate being shot out of a barrel and disintegrated. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
