Extraordinary?

Extraordinary?

Glenn linked to this story with this comment:
I’M PRETTY SURE THAT THIS MEXICAN ARSENAL didn’t come from an American gun shop.
The "anti-aircraft gun" is a Browning M1919 on a tripod - totally unsuitable for use as an "anti-aircraft gun." For that, it would need to be on a pintle mount. There appears to be a 37mm grenade launcher, an AR15 with a long, heavy stainless barrel of the type favored by varmint shooters for long-range accuracy, two bolt-action hunting rifles, and an AK-47-pattern rifle with quite the collection of magazines for it. Can't tell if the AR or the AK are full-auto, but with that barrel I strongly doubt the AR has a rock-n-roll setting.

So, M1919 and grenade launcher aside, you could buy the other four guns in most gun shops here.

Or on a street corner in Manchester, England for that matter.

What's so extraordinary?
