Winchester has changed the name of the Black Talon to Law Enforcement Talon, not "Fluffy Bunnie Slippers". The new name seems to indicate that they have changed it only for law enforcement sales. That is, the name for the civilian market may remain the same. In any event, the San Bernardino County (CA) Sheriff's Department has already begun to purchase and issue the stuff.
