Grab them and regardless of condition, replace the barrels, extractors and firing pins.

These rifles hadn’t yet walked to Mexico.

They were found before they were lost.

Youre assuming there were only three to begin with! Maybe he kept the non-rusted specimens. Yeah....and the rusted ones were those we are previously lost in the boating accident we always hearing about...
I went sailing Obama self and don lost three rifles.

“Badly rusted”
In that desert? Must have been there for eons.
Probably still shoot fine, I imagine.

I would grab 2 of them and shut up! and hope I didn’t lose them in an upcoming canoeing accident... The weak descriptions didn't say whether these were full-auto AK's from someone's armory somewhere, or civilian AKS's from Stateside gun stores.
Newshounds. All the facts, all the time. </s>

While we were driving near Vekol, Thomas explained the “terrain” problem to me after pulling off the side of the road to show me the “Travel Caution: Smuggling and Illegal Immigration May Be Encountered in This Area" sign provided by Homeland Security. .....He said the cartels have a vast intelligence network. Men known as “spotters” sit up on the top of hills and mountains with cell phones and radios, calling drug running crews in the U.S. and Mexico about where Sheriff vehicles are located and where Border Patrol is cruising. Okay, time for the _Resident to put down his World Series bracket and his iPod and get on the phone to Twentynine Palms and declare a state of "Fleet Oppose Invasion" for the State of Arizona, and send a bunch of LRRP's down to that valley to clean it out -- under the rules of war, not nicey-nicey criminal-investigative rules.

I would think that anyone stashing guns would find a place where they stayed dry. In a plastic trash bag? One twist-tie, and I don't care if it rains like Noah's Ark, those guns will stay dry. The only thing I can think of might be condensation in cold weather ..... agree they'd have to have been out there a long time, years likely.

Sounds like somebody is “walking back” some guns that were planted on them by Holder’s other people.

I would have our Military run ops and kill and destroy... but that’s just me.

“They are magazines, arent they?”
I’m marveling that they got it right!
Yes, M1, plus AKS uses stripper clips, as do many others like O3A3 (I think).

This whole thing sounds a bit strange. First, “badly rusted” weapons (in the hot Arizona desert), then found by a hiker...If the area is soooooo dangerous, what the hell was a hiker doing out there in the first place? I smell a rat.

The area cant be used for camping, hiking or hunting as it used to be because the area is dangerous and drug and human smugglers are carrying high-powered weapons like AK-47s.7.62X39 isn't a bad cartridge but I wouldn't really call it 'high powered.' It's kind of punk compared to what several of my guns are chambered for.

It is possible that the reporter has traumatic memories associated with the phrase ‘anemic squirter’ and can’t bring himself to repeat it.
