This is the future of weapons. A complete gun that can be both the 5.56, and the 7.62 in just a flick of a switch… Okay and you have to change the barrel too, but it is ultimately going to be the most versatile gun, because of the options that it has.
Check out the video below, and let me know what you think.
Mexico has had an influx of guns being brought into the country from the north. The guns are being purchased in the United states and then smuggled into Mexico, and distributed throughout the mobs and militias.
“The same routes that are being used to traffic drugs north — and the same organizations that have control over those routes — are the same organizations that bring the money and the cash proceeds south as well as the guns and the ammunition,” says Bill Newell, a special agent with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Many of the residents of the bordering towns have been fearing for their lives because of these cartels and organizations that are trafficking these weapons. The ATF have started a solution to the problem called Operation Gunrunner, in the latest seizure of the operation 42 weapons and slews of ammunitions were taken. The guns confiscated included AK-47 rifles and masses of Fabrique National pistols. The semiautomatic Fabrique’s fire a 5.7-by-28 millimeter round, which is considered to be a rifle round, according to the ATF. Newell says the round has a special nickname in Mexico.. “Mata Policias” or “Cop Killer” this videoshows the ease of how these cartels are obtaining the weapons, and the crimes that they commit with them.
Multiple police officials have been killed on the bordering towns of the US and Mexico, including Cmdr. Francisco Ledesma Salazar, who was killed right in front of his house. The weapon that was used in this case was .50 caliber rifle round which at this point cannot be stopped by any form of personal protection. The ways in which these acts are played out are so extremely violent, that there has to be a plan of action put in place, to minimize and even stop the cartels from being able to obtain these weapons.
