That’s fine. However it should not be forgotten that the 9/11 Saudis have bought and received over $1 trillion dollars of American military equipment and cannot subdue impoverished, hostile irregulars in adjacent Yemen and establish stability. Watching Biden go to these corrupt Saudi lowlifes begging for oil is beyond repulsive.

Ammo in the middle surrounded by AK’s. But, what is that off to the right—three lines of black objects.

Why seize all that crap? Handcuff the sailors to the boat and then scuttle it. Let Davy Jones have it all.

If that is 1400 rifles, it looks like they may have only shipped 1400 magazines with them.
22600 rounds is 515 spam cans @ 440/can.( that is only 16.14 rounds per rifle.)
