The Taxi driver may have friends.

Still a pretty scummy thing to do to a lad just going about his job.

I see the whistleblower twitter account is still churning out garbage.
Refuses to spell three words in a row correctly.

My Flashy was in the paper for slapping a taxi driver with a bag of coke last week, wonder how long he'll last before he gets targeted.

Was it jug ears himself? I didn't see the article but had heard it was an associate.

"There are some items, particularly ammunition and two magazines, that would be similar to those used by the Defence Forces in their Steyer assault rifles.

"The army have been asked to examine the equipment and experts from the ordnance section will look into the discovery."

I know 3 different lads who were in the army then quickly and quietly weren't all of a sudden, 2 of them were definitely involved with drugs, so I mean it wouldn't be too far fetched, also I'm pretty sure some grenades went missing from the army a short while back.

5.56 ammunition is the NATO standard so all Europe's armies would use that particular round.

Getting the rifle to fire it might be a whole lot trickier though and I can't imagine irish army soldiers selling Steyr ammunition or rifles to criminals.

An uncle of mine was fcuked out of the army back in the 80s for robbing rounds. It happens.

there are 3 different types of ammunition pictured. 1 regular 5.56, 1 5.56 tracer and what looks likes a 7.62. There is a smoke grenade there as well and the defence forces should be able to tell if it is one of theirs as it should have a batch number on the bottom.

No doubt..I've seen my share of 9mm rounds intended for the Gustav smg and a some 7.62s that had been nicked by FCA lads but I'm saying if you're going to nick NATO ammunition you better have something to fire it out of and if you don't then there's no point having it except as "souvenir" rounds.

If criminals were going to equip themselves with military ammunition and rifles there are better ways of getting them than asking soldiers to pinch it for you.
