1 Million dollars says they were WASRs or something like it. AK frames, but semi-automatic variants.

10 days and 45 days respectively....



Or were being brought here FROM Mexico....
Now you are going off the road Oz. Sorry if your "expert opinion" does nnot hold that much weight, I'll stick with the official reports regarding the AK 47s.

So now you say the guns are starting to come North...and the drugs heading south? Would'nt that be a twist?

Simply shows your ignorance of the matter...no big deal.

You DO know the difference between an assault rifle and a semi-auto right?

A federal police patrol in the northern border state of Sonora discovered an arsenal that included an anti-aircraft machine gun, Mexican authorities said Tuesday.

The arms cache was found at a home in Santa Ana occupied by Anahi Beltran Cabrera, 20, who was taken into custody.

Federal police commissioner Rodolfo Cruz said she is suspected of links to the Beltran Leyva brothers, leaders of a powerful drug-trafficking organization.

Cops discovered the weapons after spotting the .50-caliber machine gun mounted on an SUV parked in front of the house. Cruz said the weapon can fire 800 rounds per minute and is capable of piercing armor at a distance of 1,500 meters (5,000 feet).

In the house there were also a grenade launcher, 261 bullet clips, 29 boxes containing 9,600 rounds of ammunition and 750 grams (1 2/3 pounds) of cocaine.

Also found in the house were several AK-47 and AR-15 assault rifles, another .50-caliber machine gun, carbines and accessories and replacement parts for all these weapons.
From one of the other links....where does one buy an anti-aircraft weapon in the USA????

What aisle of the local sporting good store???

Old buddy, I wonder which of these lefties wrote this at the top of the article comments. It is a bit sickening but obviously written by someone from south of that border.

Learn read another language guys. THIS ARMS CROSSED TO MEXICO FROM THE USA, NOT THEY WERE COMING TO AMERICA. JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR SECOND AMENDMENT THAT ALLOWS FREE BUYING OF ARMS, THE DRUG LORDS COME TO REPLENISH THEIR LOSES. THEY ARE NOT BOUGHT BY UNDOCUMENTED PEOPLE, THEY ARE BOUGHT WITH THE PROFITS OF YOUR NEED FOR DRUGS. REQUEST TO YOUR CONGRESS DRUG FREE PROGRAMS AND WE MEXICANS WILL THANK YOU THAT WE WILL LIVE IN PEACE. OUR PRESIDENT WON'T BE ABLE TO STOP THIS WAR IF YOU DON'T STOP CONSUMING DRUGS.
