Author | Topic: Can Metal Detectors detect Foil Strips? | ||
Cool Novice ![]() ![]() Posts: 28 |
Me and a couple of buddies are planning a trip down to TJ to go and party. while i am down there i was planning on picking up some stuff, but a lot of what i want to get comes in foil strips. we park on the American side of the border and walk across, but when you walk back you have to walk through metal detectors and sometimes you get patted down, especially if you are male. do you think the foil strips and maybe some amps will set off the metal detectors? will my stuff me confiscated and i put in jail or would it just be confiscated and they would let me go? a buddy of mine who is an RN and used a lot of gear in the past said that if you bring back a small amount of gear and say it is for personal use only, it is ok and they will let you go across with it. is that true? thanks for all the info ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

When I came back with clen tabs that come in foil strips the metal detectors never went of. So I don't think you will have a problem. ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Ok bro to keep it real if it for you to use and not for sale then take them out of the foil......One thing I noticed down in TJ is that the authorities down there are $ hungry ****this by NO means is a pot shot at the Mexican community I have seen it in Spain, Italy also**** if they want to be hard asses they will detain you and mess with you..(fines, scare you) or they can just ask you for a donation for there department and let you go (wink).....One thing I noticed watching the inspectors is that they never check the soles of sneakers.....a layer of cotton a couple of foil strips and another thin layer of cotton and then the sole..... I am by NO means recommending illegal activities and I am just speaking from what I have seen.... BIZ!! ------------------ GET BIG GUY'S!!!!!!!!! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

You could shove some of the amps up your ass (dont mean to be offensive), depends on how many you need to transport, if you need to bring more over, do more squats and leg presses j\k. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

PUMP...THANT MADE NO SENSE>>>LET ME HELP YOU OUT>>>HE IS TALKING ABOUT ORAL PILLS>>>NOT AMPS.... ANYWAY...I went to cancun and brought back some Stenox(halotestin)...It was foil backed...Except I put it in my bag....I would not carry it on me in the foil...BIZ Speaks the truth...I would put it in an advil container, or in supplement like Vandayl Sulfate container... ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Forget it NJ, my strange sense of humour. Ive heard people transport pills in shampoo containers and things like that as well. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I brought back STEN (test in some amps) all stuffed into my cargo pant pockets. Never set the detector off at the airport...As for pills I take an empty 800mg motrin bottle and fill it with anavar hehe. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

ok brother.. check this out ... before you head down to MEXICO. do this. put some foil in your pocket. go through any courthouse w/ a metal detector. if it goes off then you know the real deal. it ain't a crime having foil in your pocket, is there? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
