Bottle-rocket crossbow
From A KoL Wiki
This is a portable crossbow with a special attachment that lets it fire lit bottle rockets in addition to regular bolts. It's a combination of festive and deadly that could only be done justice by creating an entirely new word. I'd like to suggest "deastive."

Notes
- July 2007's special of the month from Mr. Store.
- Its Mr. Store description is/was:
- A nifty weapon that lets you shoot bottle-rockets at your enemies. Those bottle-rockets do -- you guessed it -- various things!
- This item was released a few days late due to NS13 delays.
- This item was equippable in hardcore for a few minutes after release.
- The +15% Moxie boost was non-functional for a few minutes after release.
- Allows you to fire red, blue, orange, purple, and black bottle-rockets.
References
- An obvious reference to Independence Day in the United States and Canada Day in Canada, since both celebrations involve fireworks.
- Inventing the word "deastive" to describe the crossbow is likely a reference to Kung Pow: Enter the Fist, specifically the scene in which The Chosen One deems killing people both bad and wrong, and decides it needs a new word: "badong"
- "Deastive" could also be a reference to an early commercial for The Colbert Report, which described the show as "trustigious," a combination of "trustworthy" and "prestigious."
