An Idaho ammo company is selling pork-coated bullets for use on Islamic terrorists, a bid to strike fear of being sent to hell into the hearts of jihadists.
A leading Muslim civil liberties organization was quick to dismiss the product as a stunt pulled by “publicity-seeking idiots.”
“It’s the same old bizarre nonsense,” said Ibrahim Hooper of the Council on American-Islamic Relations. “These people are trying to take advantage of Islamophobia to sell products and make a quick buck.”
------------------------------
There is little evidence in Islamic texts to support the idea that strict Muslims would go to hell for touching pork.
The Quran 2:173 says “…whoever is forced [by necessity], neither desiring [it] nor transgressing [its limit], there is no sin upon him…” which has been interpreted by some scholars to mean that Muslims can eat pork if they either do not know it is pork or if it is a necessity for seeing of starvation.

Article also talks of British ammo using pig/cow fat which was against beliefs of Indian Muslims/Hindus.
