It looks very like none of those rounds would fit the pistol, I use the word pistol, as technically, a 'gun' has wheels. Looks like Armalite rounds and a long cartridge .22 or maybe 38 from a revolver, so it looks like a case of look how hard I am, I got a 'gun'.

So sad.

did you read the story?

a waist-bag was found to contain 0.58g of the class 1 drug Crystal Methamphetamine and a modified BB Gun which could now be used as a live weapon. One .38 bullet and five M16 bullets were also found.

lol... bullets for a gun (.223 ?) showing together with a handgun, looooooooooooooooooooooooool

me thinks it not fit, maybe he could throw them

Thats what i thought when i saw the bullets to but maybe the gun was modified to be able to fire those???

A baddie attempting to fire a BB gun modified to fire 5.56mm (.223) rounds would indeed be eligible for a Darwin award!

Wonder what the connection is to link this story with his employers (probably ex now as they will not like this type of publicity).

Just so much padding in these stories, are the journalists former "Thai" bra manufactures?

Maybe, he was pissed off at the farang who wanted to return that fridge in the other thread.

why, he could have used it to store his Ice?

I sell Airsoft in Pattaya and there is a lot of doubt as the whether an AIrsoft can be modified to shoot real ammo.

So much would need replacing as it doesnt fit, would break and or just not adaptable, that it would have been cheaper to get a real pistol.

Ive seen employees in many shops form groups and ignore work and customers just to socialize in the storefront. What better place to start selling drugs.... Its a double pay off, that doesnt appear unusual as the same amount of work is being done, that nobody would suspect anything.... 'sic'

Would probably be 'armless after the firing, so no danger to anyone else.

Does the Thai army teach how to convert BB guns into guns that can kill? Im sure he has learned from his friends. If the bullets dont fit the gun he has with him, then maybe the gun that fits the bullets, is somewhere else?

The trough image of Pattaya : Crime, dirty and very bad Air Pollution !!

Converting an Airsoft to fire live ammo seems a quick way to kill or badly maim someone...

... almost certainly the user of the gun.
