Guns that Pass Through Metal Detectors--Possible?

[semf]

"...I heard that baggage thieves are carrying special made Glocks with ceramic barrels that pass thru(sic) airport detectors..." That is absolute nonsense. It came right out of one of the Die Hard movies. Willis' character actually says something about ceramic guns. There are no ceramic barrels. There is no real firearm that cannot be detected by the scanners. It's ALL BS from the anti-firearm plugs.

Yes Chicken it was a joke. The reference to baggage theives was meant to give that away. Not every thing said here can be taken literally. It was meant to poke fun at Hollywood's lack of firearm knowledge. Or the fact that they never let the truth get in the way of a good story line.

I know, I know. No one here believes they were common baggage thieves, they had to be terrorists. Well funded terrorists because a gun like that would cost more than you make in a year.

Back in the mid 80's a company in Atlanta, no not SWD or Cobray, had built a plastic and ceramic pistol. The only metal in it was the springs, though it was only a .22. It look much like the single shot 'Deer Gun' or shrunk Ruger MkI with a short tapered barrel.
