Hollywood bling. Note the two revolving multi-shot grenade launchers.
That is some serious firepower!

ill tell you were 95% of those guns came from
maddi's with full auto selectors they just threw in a few wasr10's to say
all those guns were from the u.s. last time i checked you cant get a RPG7 rocket luanchers or chinese type 56 well not a real type 56 ak's none of this civiliian bull crap conveted to full auto. uzi smg's stamped iwi the ammo in the belt is for a fn mag gpmg basically a version of the m240 gulf machine gun
used by "england" and the ar15s were stolen from police armories in mexico
and real ak74su's from russia these
and yes i know about class three weapons but trust me these were not from the u.s.
50,000 mexican soldiers have gone awol with there weapons
80% off which i under stand are going home to protect there familes and towns why becuase even if you are a regular soldier the cartels have a price on your head and your family just becuase you work for the goverment
Hugo Chávez Venezuela GOVERNMENT has been supplied by russia for many years and hes got beef with mexico im talkenthere might be a war between mexico Venezuela
elsalvador and they are not left over weapons from the civil war down there years back
the IRA's arms dealers yes i do mean the Irish Republican Army
the russian organized crime cidicates they do some arms dealing but there main hustle is human trafficking
the only thing thats from the us is the ammo and a few pistols and those p90's and fs2000's and five seven pistols may be a couple of thse 50 bmg's
but there making it seem like all guns are comin from here
by the way the gold and nickle plated pistols is how the Distinguse there rank in the cartels no dude i dont think youell be seing them on GunBroker.com
and i dont know why this is getting any attention now that obama is in office this war war has been waging for years and nobody noticed
the reason thst we are being told that 99% of the guns are from the us is becuase the mexican government needs help us troops is what there hoping for but what they got was 5,000 dea & fbi angents and black water pmc's
and i got this from a very reliable sources
Love the Golden M-92 Beretta.
