Comment on What happens to all the used guns?

I don’t think someone blew up a container, but as there are (illegal) hand grenades circulating in Sweden, maybe somebody deposited some in such a container. When it was emptied, all participants got into a hurry as they weren’t qualified for handling explosive devices.
Alternatively, they’ve thought beforehand and placed the sign knowing that some may also want to get rid of their grenades. But as they require extra care, it’s probably a bad idea to store them in a container in the foyer of the police station.

I assume the container is regularly checked. probably daily.
Also. There’s always a story behind every warning sign like that. One might have just showed up. one might have gone off. but something happened to make someone go, “maybe we should get a sign.”
