"Australian Federal Police officers were called after a security worker monitoring an x-ray saw what they suspected to be a firearm in the 47-year-old man’s carry-on baggage yesterday morning (6 March 2022)"
"Police inspected his luggage and found a loaded Ruger pistol. The man was stopped from boarding a flight to the United States and police questioned him about the weapon, which was seized"
Sounds like he was caught with it on the way out, so he brought it with him (well done TSA/BF for allowing it in....) and liked it enough and thought so little of security he thought he could repeat his antics on the way out. So the TSA allowed someone with a 100% not concealed pistol to get on a flight and BF here never picked it up either. How and why on earth the guy didnt realise he had won the lottery when he found it when he got here and tossed it into the ocean I have no idea, how could you be so stupid to try smuggle it back home on carry on? Unless it was in the bottom of his backpack and never realised the entire time lol
