Two arrested at Beach Road shop which sold rifle parts
'Illegal rifle part sold out? Order from me'

By Gan Ling Kai and Lim Wei Li
March 19, 2010


A man and a woman were arrested yesterday at the Golden Mile Shopping Centre for selling parts of a rifle.

The raid started at about 3.35pm, and police spent about an hour searching the shop, which is on the third level.

If the price is right, it appears everything from a rifle firing pin to a bolt carrier – essential parts of the powerful M16 rifle – can be made available.

The New Paper first became aware of the illegal trade after a posting on Stomp. One netizen claiming to be an NSman said he was willing to sell his military gear for quick cash.

A police spokesman said Mindef and the police have conducted joint raids at the food centre previously.

A male stallholder was charged in court in 2006 for fraudulent possession of M16 magazines and was jailed six weeks.

Beach Road shop offers The New Paper team illegal items
Rifle parts can be bought...if the price is right

By A Special Correspondent
March 19, 2010


At least two shops at the Golden Mile Food Centre were selling rifle components, The New Paper team found out two weeks ago.

At the start, it seemed that claims made on Stomp about weapons parts being easily available there could have been an exaggeration.

But The New Paper team managed to find a firing pin within 10 minutes at the place, known for selling military supplies.

A stallholder had eight or nine firing pins for sale, and wanted $70 for each one.

Blank attachments and retaining pins were also available for $12 and $1 respectively.

Another shallholder who sold the controlled items told The New Paper team that shopkeepers at the market usually sell the rifle components to customers who are alone.

He refused to say who his suppliers were, but indicated that they were local.

While it appeared that there was a limit on what was available, the second proprietor said he can secure the parts in about a week if an order is put in.

Hic ! I thought this has been old news years back and now it resurface again.

Its a bloody joke anyway, a retaining pin can be bought at specific hardware shops in Singapore and just because it has been designated as a controlled item everything is illegal.

To add insult to everyone is that blank attachment can be manufacturer at any workshop as long they have the necessary machines.

Now firing pin being sold openly is new to me. I do find those stall owner enterprising in offering almost anything to NSMen. They give new meaning to the term one-stop solution centre.

for scum of the universe pap reporters, anything that are not approved by harry lee are illegal.

Must be SPH's 3rd class Ah Beng report.

Can fucking call a M-16 magazine M16型步枪杂志.

Stupid jokers! Really First World!

Never heard of 弹匣 or what?

山龟 Know what that is?

 

[vamjok]

i was thinking why was that fellow arrested for a real readable magazine. did not realised its that magazine he is referring to

... and you thought the firing "pin" referred to the safety pin that you use when your zipper decided to give way???

.... and the "cap" was something you'll use for a one-night stand???

.... and the "blanks" was what appeared on your face when you first read about the "magazine"???

I didn't know a kuniang like you has served AntAss.

Fucking PAP is a joke. Lose billions of dollars is not illegal woh. But possession of firing pin is? Most of these firing pins are not Mil-Spec anyway. They will probably break after repeated use. As for blank attachments, this is going on for a long time. U can tell which is the real and fake blank attachments in the armskote. The fake ones actually perform just as well. retaining pin is outlawed is also a joke.

The things that should be illegal are barrels and ammo. U can't do anything without these 2.

The article is written by Fucked Talent (FT) from PRC mah. How they know what is the chinese word for mag? They never tang peng before. Like they will hire a real NSmen to write this stuff?

 

[zuoom]

i think there's real concern when using of non military issued item on the rifle.

strength, reliability comes to mind. which boils down to safety and accountability.

also, how would anyone lose their firing pin?
after dissemble the bolt carrier, cleaning, assemble, back into the rifle. it would take losing the whole rifle to lose that pin.

unless the fellow lose it while cleaning??

 

[johnny333]

also, how would anyone lose their firing pin?

It happened to me
Lost a bolt & not pin.

During the 1st month of basic my neighbour who was one of those gabra type lost his bolt. He panicked & stole my bolt.

When the lost was discovered a search was conducted they found the bolt in his cupboard. They didn't charge the idiot but I was very careful with my things & only had a water bottle stolen

You meet all kinds of people in NS.

 

[kingrant]

This lobang will save many a NSman his skin and allows him to replace the lost parts without getting charged or even court marshalled. No statements to sign. Wish all these were available during my time.

Hey, anybody can still get hold of thunderflashes?

 

[kingrant]

Order online thru ebay. Ship to you no problem. Seller listed item as "sporting goods".

Can also buy from Taiwan and put it in check-in luggage.

Even slingshots are illegal in Spore

Most probably the buyers are ah peng kia who lost some rifle parts goes there and buy these replacements. For all you know, maybe the part they lost were stolen from them in the first place and sold in these shops...

In ST Kinetics firing pin is machined in a single pass by screw lathes .... as was the case with CIS decades ago.
