Is this the same show where someone turned in a fired launch tube for a stinger missile?

Oh my. The good news is that is in no way a live round or capable of firing. Unlike a .50 caliber bullet a real one really can can take down a jet liner.

A man standing outside the event Saturday bought the military weapon for $100 from another person there, according to Detective Mark Jamieson.

Police took possession of the launch tube Saturday. Police said the man who had purchased it agreed to accept a gift card as compensation if the launch tube is not returned to him, though the man indicated he wanted to keep it if he was legally able to do so.

Funny that is the only mention of people standing outside buying by the Startrib
I imagine it was stolen so he will end up with the gift card.
