is that where the Browning M2's and RPGs used to free the son of "El Chapo" came from?

And while they're at it, can we see a breakdown of all confiscated firearms separated by country of origin? I'm curious just exactly how many of the various cartels' weapons come from Chinese sponsored international arms dealers. China has an avowed long term goal of pushing the USA off of the international stage and taking its place. It would seem like destabilizing Mexico's government and fostering a mass migration to El Norte would be one way of furthering that goal.

Maybe Mexico could "build that wall"
There is a line in the dialog in the movie "A Touch of Evil" (late 1950's-60) where Charlton Heston says; "Almost two thousand miles of border and not one machinegun on it"

Considering what "The Deep State" is up to I wouldn't be surprised if these guns are BATFE guns!
