Two Mexican nationals transporting 180,000 rounds of ammunition were arrested in Colorado last month after being pulled over by police in a traffic stop.

My wife can do that in an afternoon, and hit dead center every time from 3 yards to 50 yards. How's that AB?

Illegal aliens are not allowed protection under the 2A. Can't have ammo and can not even hold a firearm while on our soil.


Military rounds such as the 7.62mm are illegal in Mexico. Those boxes better not say, "Lake City" anywhere on them. Those boxed lots of ammo isn't sold at Academy either. Nor Wal-Mart.


Maybe thinking they were gonna sue American firearm makers was a half a burrito idea.

You can easily buy 500/1000 round boxes of military calibers ammo everywhere including Academy. In most red states no ID required.

I'm thinking maybe Chickenman might have brokered this ammo deal.

Current price for Lake City 7.62 is $1.25 each. 100 round lots. Where'd the $225,000 come from? Where were they buying these cases?

Has this ammo pile been tracked back? Did it come from an arms room?

These Mexicans having that ammo is a huge deal. Nobody is thinking they were transporting for a family get together, target shoot. That ammo was headed to cartels.
