I've heard that some people have been killed by pianos, both literally and
figuratively! And I'm sure other here pure music in the sound of their
well-tuned fire arm.

Oh yeah, and Ballistol is a used by both gun owners and piano technicians!

On at least two occasions I have found bullets or bullet casings inside of
pianos!

Wow! The similarities are almost spooky!!
