Could be an arms dealer. Taking guns to Switzerland, bringing Swiss Army knives back to LOS.

I just wanted to point out there are approx 8 million bike kids and most have a gun under the seat.  haha

It must take you an awful lot of time to check all those kids bikes.

Guess the answer to how swiss cheese gets so many holes in it has been resolved

The gun in the plastic envelope posted above is the one found at Phuket. The slide is a genuine Astra slide made in Spain. The one found by cops has the wrong writing on it. Looks like something inn Russian. Maybe a BB gun or a fake.

NEVER bring a knife to a gunfight.

 

The Swiss guy must have been doing nothing other than following this old and PROVEN Maxim.

 

 

[steven100]

I'd like to know .... 

 

what if he had a gun that you can dis-assemble with screws,  like it is in four pieces,  and

you placed the separate parts in different bags ....

 

would that work I wonder  ?

Or 7/11.

Hezbollah - 7/11, no difference.

I think they are run by the same people.

On my last trip from Canada about 5 years ago, I had packed some stuff including a "bali-song" knife and a couple brand-new Leatherman multi-tools in my checked suitcase.

I had stupidly bought one of those "special" suitcases that Customs has the "special code" for the combo lock so they can open your bag without having to cut the lock off.

I was sitting at the Departure Gate reading a book when 3 cops (RCMP) showed up looking for me.
When my checked bag went through security screening, they saw some "interesting" stuff and because they had the code to open the suitcase, decided to do some snooping.

They found the Leathermans - which were perfectly legal. And they found the bali-song - which was illegal in Canada.

So they removed the bali-song and put a printed page inside the suitcase to let me know that it had been opened by Customs.
After a 5 minute conversation with the 3 cops, they were satisfied I probably wasn't an Al Qaeda terrorist and left.

And of course, when I get home (in Thailand) and open my suitcase, I see the note - and see that the 3 brand new Leathermans had also gone missing along with the Balisong.

That's when I realised - the scanner had seen the Leathermans on the x-ray and they opened my suitcase to look at them and then found the bali-song knife. 
They wanted to keep the Leathermans so they took them, knowing I'd be long gone before ever realising they were missing.
They used the bali-song as the excuse for opening my suitcase.

If I'd used a normal suitcase with a separate lock on it, they probably would have skipped right past it. But knowing they could open the bag and "snoop" without me knowing it gave them the opportunity to do just that. 
And they did.

Perhaps the oldtimer just wanted to bring a Swiss gun home for a souvenir.

 

From the BKK Post: 

 

During questioning, the Swiss man reportedly told police that he thought bringing a gun with no ammunition or magazine onboard a flight was not prohibited. He had decided to bring it to his home country because he thought it was not against the law, police said.

Doesn't really matter much - I think checked bags are x-rayed. But I would guess carry on. Maybe he has Alzheimers, that would explain something like that at his age. 

[Cadan]

Looks like a 7/xx t-shirt promotion 😁. Some people are really smart - no matter what age - was he on a flight to Texas ?

That might be true, but he should have checked. wait, there are those signs with photos of hand grenades, pipe bombs, guns, and everything that is prohibited. I suspect perhaps senile. 

[Taboo2]

When I was living in Basel, Switzerland, the locals told me they have guns, but they are safely tucked away at home.  It is a safe, very safe country.  Maybe he is senile.

[Taboo2]

Never trust a Swiss man who wears a 7/11 T-shirt....555555.
