Weapons seized from Drug Cartels by Mexico's Military & LE (updates)

[SilentType]

Are the police/ army using any of these weapons after seizing them? I mean there's some decent stuff in these finds that I imagine could be used better against the narcs then just being melted down.

They don't appear to be destroying them. They have a huge warehouse full of weapons they've gathered. Frankly they'd be insane to just melt down a lot of that stuff especially since I suspect some of it is "stolen" from their own armories.

Some of the '' military grade'' guns are given to some units in the Army.

Armored SUVs are now becoming more common. They are amazingly resourceful. It's hard not to be impressed.

Sometimes they have vehicles that can create clouds of smoke so they can escape, drain oil on the pavement so it becomes slippery, and throw sharp objects to pop the tires of whoever is chasing them.

Hi-Res images of one of the largest weapons cache confiscated in Mexico. It belonged to the Gulf Cartel.

I second that(or they have connections), especially looking at the two DDs in this pic.

Fantastic show of arms. Pretty alarming what can fall into civvy hands(well, if you can call the civvy's I guess).

Ak's and armalites are hardly surprising, but the amount of 12.7 rifles and an M2? Good god.

Know where I need to go to pick up a 50cal or two...

On another note, aren't P90's/57's and 5.7mm ammo LE only, or is that a thing of the past? ****load of them. Good few 203's aswell, I imagine stolen/retrieved from skirmishes with the military/police?

12.7mm rirles are no different than any other rifle in most the US, along with semi auto M2's.

only certain loads of 5.7mm are restricted. and there are a ****load of 40mm rounds, but ive never seen a 203 or 40mm weapon. i beat some boxs of ammo for Mexican MK19s have walked away.
