It was a loaded diaper, but not like you would think.

Security officers found 17 bullets concealed inside a disposable baby diaper Wednesday at New York’s LaGuardia Airport, the Transportation Security Administration said.

Officers pulled the otherwise clean diaper from a passenger’s carry-on bag after it triggered an alarm in an X-ray machine at an airport security checkpoint, the TSA said.

    I used to run a CNC laser. It would cut 2-d shapes out of metal up to 19mm thick.

    We had a supervisor who was going on a trip once, and we joked about cutting out the silhouette of a handgun and sewing it into the lining of a carryon bag. We didn’t do it, but I could see a stunt like that causing problems.
