Check out Ebay. I imagine there are guys with 40mm tubes under
their
ARs and looking for ammo.



The "fun part" was the "accidentally dropped." Yeah, right.**


Dropped purposely?* Like the armored car that “purposely” the same
way that
dropped a bunch of cash out the back door on the highway.


It's "a container of ammunition for an automatic grenade launcher,"
according to a news report I read. I'd bet an automatic grenade
launcher
is also missing.



Probably.** But missing somewhere else.* Maybe the Weathermen are
having a
reunion.

I am not sure if you can unclip these and shoot them out of an M79 or
the M203 under an M16 but if you can I am sure there are guys who can
shoot one.



Oh, joy. Hopefully, they'll just blow themselves up and avoid further
denigration of the gene pool.



You really should be a guest on the Rachel Maddow show.



I'm referring to the guys who got the explosives that fell off the
truck, not the military guys who might need to use the stuff for legit
reasons.
