Prolly a mistranslation from GT again, i think they had a balloon party while blasting Scissor Sisters through their sound system...

Ignoring for a moment the fact bthat this group of men, approximately the size of a military squad was armed to the teeth with ballistic missiles, could someone tell me what base nuts are?

You attach balloons to scissors with basenuts silly! Everyone know that!

Just a guess!

The AK-47 Pistol Grip Screw and Base is a replacement AK-47 pattern pistol grip screw with the locking base nut. With most AK-47 style firearms being put together from a mix of new and used surplus parts, there is a clear need for replacement parts like this pistol grip screw. Now you can replace your existing worn or stripped pistol grip screw with a brand new part.

i think what the reporter wanted to say is that five of them were right down basic nutters...

You're probably right Kuroneko. But ballistic missiles? Probably what Google Translate whispered into a writer's ear for slingshot. The balloons were possibly used as targets for antiaircraft drills.

I suspect they were rocket propelled grenades for an RPG 7 and RPG 7 rockets got translated as "ballistic missiles"
If you translate the 41 balloons separately fro the original text ៤១គ្រាប់ It translates as 41 seeds.

^^ Haven't seen the original text, but if it says "៤១គ្រាប់", then in this case it would be 41 bullets.
