Don't make too much of this---It's reminiscent of a couple decades ago when FBI types were setting up store fronts to buy automatic weapons and such from miscellaneous dirtbags who thot they were selling to militias or IRA buyers. In this case the buyer seems to be one of our own guys. The 18 dumass sellers were trying to get some up-front cash by flashing some pics that are probably available from Janes. No mention of how the Russian Bazooka was to be brought here? It's tougher than the story implies. One would hope that the Feds are continuously running these ops to turn up bigmouth chizelers who usually talk a helluva story but just need to be charged with STUPIDITY an put away in a high security pre-school.

It's very easy to do. They can be brought in by the 1000s w/o be detected.
