Cartels have plenty of money, and we have plenty of crooks in positions of authority.I’m seriously curious as to how these people get a hold of machine guns. It’s hard enough for law abiding citizens with the cash necessary to get them, how does the cartel get these by the apparent truckload?
I’m not sure why they even bother trying to get American guns. Now what would be interesting to figure out is where the 249 came from. Maybe some of these trains being robbed. But as for the AKs they could just go down to Venezuela and buy real AK-47s for probably 50 to 100 bucks. Before Hugo Chavez died he got a contract with Russia to build a plant and manufacture honest-to-goodness real AK-47s with Russia’s blessing. Why would they want semi autos from here in the United States when they could have the real thing for lessI’m seriously curious as to how these people get a hold of machine guns.

That wouldn't fit the "disarm Americans" plan.I’m not sure why they even bother trying to get American guns. Now what would be interesting to figure out is where the 249 came from.

In my opinion, It boils down to logistics. Getting anything from South American to northern Mexico involved not only crossing through several border crossings and multiple parts of Mexico who may be under control of the gov and other cartels, but also the Darien Gap in Panama. The Darien gap is 60ish miles of impenetrable jungle, mountains, and swamp, that’s constantly being patrolled by the FARC, a 10,000 strong resistance army in Columbia, several criminal groups, and other unsavory individuals. There’s never been a road put through there, partially due to the terrain, partially due to the crime, and I’ve actually heard that there was a push by US big beef to keep it that way to prevent hoof and mouth disease from migrating here from South America.I’m not sure why they even bother trying to get American guns.

And armored vehicles. Pretty creative stuff.NextGen Jalisco cartel has been making their own weapons from what I have read
