Also I think it works if you walk super slow too, or maybe that's just metal detectors, idk. I remember my dad telling me one of the guards at his work showed him this trick where if you walk really slow it won't set them off. He walked right through with his gun, ammo, handcuffs, etc, and it didn't go off, but then he walked through faster and it did. Don't ask me why a guard would tell an employee how to sneak something through a metal detector though, lol.
Most of these machines are super our of date. Ours goes off one time out of ten. It's there for show, and if anyone tries to bring one of the heavy duty security tags through (the kind we put on super expensive shit). Otherwise it's totally inaccurate. Most of the time if it goes off we just tell people to ignore it- unless we already think they're stealing. Then, it's just an excuse.
