The worst idea ever....
Moderators, I am trying to avoid looking like I'm doing "a drop the link and run". I am more baffled as why someone would go through so much (and risk so much) for so little. Normally a gun-runner would drive guns to an area where guns are difficult to legally purchase. Instead, they sneak them on a plane in a backpack having possession of them in the passenger cabin! They do all of this NOT to wreak havoc on the plane with a hijack, but simply to transport them? But now they have attention of several three-letter federal agencies. One thing that really bugged me about what was reported on the local and national news on Tuesday the 23rd was that they said the were "bought on-line".
I am wondering if when declaring firearms for "checked lugged" of a NYC bound flight. Do they check to see if persons bring arms into NYC or only arrest those who attempt to declare a gun for not having a NYC registered gun? So, why not check a smaller number in checked baggage?

There is lots more of the anti-gun rhetoric "guns on the street" & "can shoot thorough a bullet proof vest"... Bottom line, criminals are really stupid.

Two men worked together to smuggle guns and ammunition on at least 20 flights from Atlanta to New York from May to December, officials said.
“We have an egregious breach of security” at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport because airport employees “are not required to go through screening,” said Thompson. ....
