Several AKs were traced via serial numbers to an Arizona gun shop called X-Caliber Guns in Phoenix. Yesterday's WSJ also reported Cabela’s in Phoenix called authorities after they sold 24,000 rounds for more than $10,000 in cash. The ammo was loaded into a car with Mexican plates. The buyers were Mexicans.

Oh, of course some guns and ammo come from the states, but I have a very hard time believing that most are. Especially since the cartels are using full auto weapons, hand grenades, etc.
There are lots of easy ways for drug cartels to get weapons. I would venture to guess that the easiest way is through corrupt military and police.
