If its all plastic you can walk through metal detectors. As for afghanistan their knockoffs they buy in Pakistan gun markets are pretty good considering they are entirely made from scrap metal. Well, used to be before the gun markets were shut down by the taliban. You'd think they want to keep it open to buy weapons guess they are more worriied with angry villagers getting weapons and runninng them out of town


No offense... you can't walk a bullet through a metal detector.

Unless you're getting into caseless ammunition, which has never been popular.


Barrels and chambers can't be made from any plastic I know of. Typically they are made of machined/forged steel.


Better make a plastic crossbow and bolts. Which is scary enough.
