rooster59 Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Gang of three brazenly selling guns on Facebook and Line Image: Daily News Police in the Thonburi area of Bangkok announced the arrest of three Thai men who had an online gun running operation. Taken into evidence were a GSG .22, a .22 pen gun, a magazine and a lot of ammunition. Many tools were also seized. They were arrested in the Petchkasem area west of the capital Bangkok. Sukkasem or "See", 25, handled advertising through Facebook and the Line application. Sajjawat, 32, and Phayungsak, 38, produced some of the weaponry in a workshop. Investigators became aware of the operation after investigating a fruit site on Facebook called "Thammanoon Phonlamai" that led to a site on Line for vehicle spare parts called "AP Yanyon". The latter group had videos of the weapons on offer. Daily News said it was a brazen operation.

Surelynot Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 The only surprising thing about this is that it is not surprising. What a sad state of affairs. Just thinking...if guns are so "essential", as the gun lobby argue, shouldn't we all be issued with guns by the government? There would be no more stabbings! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

from the home of CC Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 starting to go more by the Filipino playbook of making their own - the Thai government should take advantage of the downturn to offer amnesty buybacks of weapons to get the numbers down of available guns (and prior to some fool billionaire paying protesters to cause civil destruction).. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pique Dard Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 is the possession of firearms illegal in thailand? one reads about so often about shootings in thailand, i thought maybe the thai constitution has got its own second amendment!

That's it. Get your eye close to the scope so it smacks you on the eyebrow when you pull the trigger. It's ok, you'll only do it once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
