Balschoiw 0 Posted January 14, 2004 I´d be the last to realize if someone is waving around with his phone near me. If someone aims at me with a handy I am not sure what to make about i guess. Thx to Avon I will now disable any cellular addict waving around with his handy on the street A threat ? Hmm, I guess there are bigger threats than that. I was surprised there was no "Buy it now" link on the page right among the other handies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

svendejong 0 Posted January 14, 2004 Its not a hoax. A friend of mine is a bouncer for a club in amsterdam and he told me over half a year ago they 'unmasked' a cellphone gun when someone tried to enter the club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tamme 0 Posted January 14, 2004 I've read of these a long time ago. There was a picture of one in a newspaper. IIRC it was more modern looking than that monster and it had three barrels inside it. All fired from different buttons. I'm not sure though, as I said it was a long time ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Apollo 0 Posted January 14, 2004 I remember a video that i ever saw with an number of Tjetsjen guerilla's that had laid a bomb along a supply line of the Russian's connected with a cellphone as trigger.All you had to do is phone the bomb and BOOM! At one point ,the Russian's had gotten hand on the celphone number of Doedajev (Tjetsjen ex. pres).He had done a phonecall and when he was talking the Russians were tracing his coordinates by sattelite ,and when they found his coordinates some colonel just typed them on a scud launcher and so Doedajev was killed by the inpact.

bonko the sane 2 Posted January 14, 2004 also completely offtopic: here, the most searched for cellphone by heavy criminals is an old model made by ericsson, as it proves to be virtually impossible to tap into a conversation made by one of those stone age cellphones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frisbee 0 Posted January 14, 2004 They were in newspapers over here two or three years ago... Had the barrel through the antenna as well,and also had 4 bullets,but it did look more modern iirc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoOB 0 Posted January 14, 2004 Imagine a bankrobbery with one of these things; "GET DOWN HE HAS A PHONE!" "Thats right, one move and I'll phone my mom!" Seriously though, I heard about these things quite a while ago. Probably coinciding with the raids in France related to these. I also saw pictures of key-chain pistols et cetera. Very dodgy stuff....
