Which military protocol covers on-the-spot pistol discovery during a stop-and-search?

We can't assume they followed every protocol just because they report a seizure.

The fact that they seized a loaded 9mm pistol and just two phones makes me wonder if more weapons slipped past checkpoints.

I'm not convinced routine checks alone can curb crime if suspects keep carrying weapons so openly at night.

Local leaders could coordinate with security forces to schedule more frequent patrols around vulnerable areas after dusk.
