I want that phone




Law enforcement and authorities at government buildings are being warned to be on the lookout for guns disguised as cell phones that are difficult to spot in metal detectors, according to a Local 6 News report. The report said the cell phone gun is a working .22 caliber pistol capable of firing off four rounds at the touch of the button. The hidden guns are made of high-grade plastic, which makes them difficult to spot in metal detectors, the report said. "They are being manufactured by people who have the equipment and knowledge to produce guns," Former MTA Counterintelligence Expert Nick Casale said. NYPD officers are also being told to be on the lookout for the custom-made guns. In an internal memo, NYPD officers were warned, "This gun is very difficult to detect visually, but once handled, it will feel heavier than a real cellular phone."
