I wouldn't know much about them either.

But yeah, that's the problem.

You see, if you look at

Wash.

John Grillo was referring to in his last piece of work, I can't remember exactly the name of the book, he's of course based in Mexico, was the fact that there was basically this flood of weapons coming from the States into Mexico because of course they were buying them legally, they were going over the border, buying them legally, smuggling them into Mexico, huge amount of damage and cartel warfare caused from it and then a flood of drugs flown back the other way.

So it was like a river, nearly.

Yeah.

And obviously the same situation can happen here if you can fly them in bit by bit and then put them together.

Were the weapons seized or was it purely communications that they realised that the weapons were coming in?

So in court, it was...

described how these weapons were found in this sort of storage shed in the Blackstick area of RD, which had been rented by O'Brien.

And some of the serial numbers were still on some of the weapons.

In one case, it was an AR-15 rifle, or more than one, which had the serial numbers.

And they were able to then check back those serial numbers and find that they had been purchased by O'Brien from a firearm shop in Nevada, of course.

That's where Vegas is in February of 2023.

I don't totally understand how they came into the country.

I mean, they could not have possibly, those bits come in through the postal system, pieces of metal, etc.

I mean, they must have smuggled them in some way, although...

Not, you know, in one piece.

I suppose there's so much, you know, nowadays with so much online and Amazon and shopping and everything, there is so much now coming through the postal service more than ever before, you know, packages, I mean, items.
