Today the third shipment arrived from my Chinese supplier, and now the arsenal is complete. I’ll fly next Tuesday to meet my contacts in Budapest and deliver the goods; 2 shotguns, 2 M4 rifles, 2 pistols, 1 Uzi, and 15,000 plastic BB’s. Sure, they’re plastic toy guns, Airsoft, but I hope airport security sees it that way and doesn’t mistake me for a small arms dealer.
The chances of getting these full scale replica toy weapons smoothly through security at the three airports I traverse on the way to Budapest is slim to none, but I have to try. Half these are for my friends, and half are for our sons. I anticipate some great Saturday morning airsoft wars this winter!

November 23rd, 2005 at 1:12 pm[...] After another 24 hours of travel, I am back home again, albeit without my bags. As is often the case, the travel gods at Charles de Gaulle Airport took them as a temporary sacrifice for trying to pass too quickly through their space in the world. I had a 50 minute window to transfer flights there, not enough time unless everything goes perfectly, so my 80 minute departure delay from New York meant I missed my original flight and was on the next available flight from Paris to Budapest. My bags, on the other hand, didn’t make the flight and didn’t meet me in Budapest. Alone in the world somewhere, they are now left to defend themselves from thieving baggage handlers who would pilfer their Christmas treasures. (And I suppose the plastic weapons arsenal didn’t help speed them along their way, either.) Hopefully we will be reunited tomorrow morning with all their contents! [...]
