A bad-ass souvenir for sure!
I wonder if he'd get in more or less trouble if he used the ol' "I was just gonna use it as a bong pipe!" excuse.
WHAT!!?? This is un-believable.... TSA FOUND something! :o
...and another (https://www.foxnews.com/travel/bwi-airport-rocket-launcher-second-found-this-week). Second one found this week.
TSA stepping up their game!
Sounds like the military and TSA need to talk. I can understand wanting to bring home a "souvenir", but they need to find a different way home. FedEx maybe? :-\
Well at least it didn't contain any dangerous fluids in it. :clap:
Don't see the problem. It's not like he could do anything with it while he was on a plane and it was in his luggage. My guess is that he was a-goin hog huntin. Think what he could do to a sounder of 15 or 16 hogs under a feeder! Yeee-Haw!
I used to have one of those big green plastic screw-top cases for an 81mm mortar round which I got in an Army-Navy store. I did actually take it with me a few times on the train into Manhattan so I could bring back rolled up art work and some oddball comics without them creasing. No one ever bothered me on the train or on the street.
Nowadays I'd probably get body slammed up against the wall.
Here in Fla. we have mosquitoes you need rocket launchers to take down. Don't even mention Palmetto Bugs. :hide:
