Albany Man Turned a Flare Gun Into What?

Well, this is actually quite terrifying but you'e got to give it to him for his ingenuity.

According to News 10 ABC, a 26 year old man from Albany recently pleaded guilty for turning a flare gun into a .22 caliber pistol.

Listen, I do think that it's horrifying that someone can do this but at the same time. You've got to hand it to the dude for his creativity. I'm certainly not an investigative reporter but I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that this guy doesn't have a degree in engineering.

I don't have the patience to put a puzzle together let alone have the time or the motivation to construct a hand gun.

I do have one question. Where the heck does one get a flare gun anyway?

After doing some research, it turns out that it's not that tough. You can actually get them at Wal Mart. Anyway, unfortunately now that this guy has done this it will make it harder for everyone to get their hands on a valuable tool designed for survival.
