Gun Smuggler Uses Xbox 360s To Hide Illegal Weapons

Joseph Bunger, 34, faces up to 25 years in prison after pleading guilty to smuggling firearms internationally, with the parts hidden inside Xbox 360 consoles.

He was arrested last year after Australian customs authorities opened one of the consoles he'd shipped from the US to find "a 9mm pistol, gun parts and two empty magazines."

He'd also been shipping disassembled weapons to the United Kingdom and Sweden, with all three countries having relatively strict gun control laws.
