1. All the ordinance is not coming from the US
The big story in the Corpus Christi Caller Times this weekend involved a South Korean made grenade that did not detonate when used by a gang member. The story mentioned other cases where grenades from this lot were used. The grenades were obtained from the Mexican military.

Sadly the border war is going to be nasty. I was in Neuvo Laredo last week - for the first time in about 3 years - and the down turn in business is evident.

In the case of the Barret - which is unusual - if the gun shop sold the weapon without checking or sold to a known gang member the owner should lose his ffl. There is plenty of illegality along the border. This morning's edition of the Caller Times carries an AP story on he rise in busts of corrupt U.S. border police all along the Southern border.
