Cjng minigun mounstro

Youre thinking about the c-ram this is expensive but not on that level unless they spent a whole day just shooting which would probably cause it to break

theaviationhistorian@reddit

What was that, sandvich? Kill them all? Good idea! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

[-]

theaviationhistorian@reddit

Oh my god, who touched Sasha? WHO TOUCHED MY GUN!

[-]

Kvenner001@reddit

With it being a cartel vehicle are we measuring in dollars or kilos?

[-]

Proably cheap given they tend to steal ammo, legit a while back a huge shipment of ammunition that was being shipped for commercial sale was stolen, I'm talking like 3 or 4 trucks worth if I recall of everything from .22 to 5.56

[-]

RandomMexicanDude@reddit

Yeah… I don’t think could effectively use these. Like I know they have smuggled them and years ago they even got a man selling them from the US, but somehow I doubt they would actually use them, maybe fore scare tactics or show off?

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

They've used them a couple times against carteles unidos I actually posted videos of it in use if u wanna check that out

[-]

RandomMexicanDude@reddit

Oh shit you are right, cant imagine how it must feel being under fire, let alone from a minigun

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

Yeah the sound of the bullets near you is crazy I believe I have a video where CU is recording the minigun shooting at them I'll look for it

[-]

RandomMexicanDude@reddit

Yeah Ill check them out, I have never seen it before

[-]

Yummy_Crayons91@reddit

3000 rounds per minute x $.85/round for .308 + the cost to link the rounds together.

Expensive for Joe Schmo, but compared to other weapons pretty cost effective for the amount of firepower you get.

[-]

Limekill@reddit

3 seconds in, and all my bullets are gone....

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

Around 3-6 thousand a minute

[-]

Spirited_Ability_894@reddit

I have a question
How do they even get a minigun

I mean US Law enforcement doesnt have this kind of firepower so i wont expect Mexican Law enforcement to have this too

Genuine question guys I dont know much about cartels

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

They get smuggled in from private owners in the use a couple years ago they caught on passing the texas boarder heading for the gulf cartel

[-]

Spirited_Ability_894@reddit

How the hell do private owners get hands on a minigun oh my lord

Now a days even an automatic weapon is hard to own imo

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

It's legal in some states just gotta meet some requirements and pay a tax

[-]

Der_Redakteur@reddit

I recognize the background sound. it's the one where there's a convoy of cjng technicals showing guns to the camera.

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

Yes

[-]

Substantial-Tone-576@reddit

Can we just airstrike these fuckers?

[-]

HKEY_LOVE_MACHINE@reddit

Good luck figuring out which ones are the baddies and which ones are kids, passerbys, taxis drivers, meal delivery dude on a bike, nurse doing checkups, etc.

The cartels are deeply embedded within the population and rarely leave populated areas, and they have been using human shields whenever endangered.

It's literally like treating metastatic cancer: the cancerous cells are everywhere, so while you can try to fry the biggest parts with radiation, take out some of it with surgery, you'll inevitably have to go through chemo, and that's gonna make you so ill, so exhausted, you'll almost prefer dying than continuing this torture.

[-]

Substantial-Tone-576@reddit

Idk I think we can figure it out.

[-]

GCI_Arch_Rating@reddit

The cartels get their weapons from America. Would it be acceptable for Mexico to airstrike every gun store in Texas to prevent crime in their own country?

Cartels are businesses. They can't be fought with bombs and bullets. You kill one bunch and someone else will come to set up shop and make the money the old cartel isn't making anymore.

You fight the cartels by cutting off their money. Legalize drugs, let big pharma sell the same substances cheaper and with better safety controls, tax their revenue, and watch the cartels die.

[-]

ChevTecGroup@reddit

Only a small portion of their arms come from the US. They aren't buying grenades, rpgs, and manpads from Texas gunshops.

[-]

HKEY_LOVE_MACHINE@reddit

The cartels buy a lot more rifles and handguns than Manpads and RPGs, you see this in raids - for every rocket launcher, you've got 50 rifles, 30 handguns, 20 shotguns.

Of course the import the military stuff from elsewhere, but the vast majority of their arsenal comes from the US (stats vary between 70% to 90%).

[-]

ChevTecGroup@reddit

Those stats have been proven to be skewed by some Mexican officials. The actual numbers are closer to 30% of the guns coming from the US. It becomes obvious when you see stuff that's illegal I'm the US, in almost every confiscating picture spread. And if they are buying grenades from corrupt govt officials, why not get their rifles from the same armory?

[-]

Tek-War@reddit

Yeah cause the pharma cartel has done so much good🙄

[-]

GCI_Arch_Rating@reddit

Is launching a war against a neighboring country a better idea?

[-]

ChevTecGroup@reddit

The country? Or the criminals inside it?

[-]

GCI_Arch_Rating@reddit

If Mexico started dropping bombs on the American gun stores that help arm the cartels, would that be an act of war against the United States?

[-]

ChevTecGroup@reddit

Depends on if the US let them. And US gun stores aren't helping the cartels. They are selling guns to qualified individuals. Theives and straw buyers are arming the cartels. Most of their firepower comes from central and south America anyway.

[-]

ellectroma@reddit

They have other strong sources of revenue like human trafficking and organ harvesting, sadly

[-]

TacTurtle@reddit

Avocados are a big cartel cash crop in Latin America now.

One of my family's ranch workers had his brother and mother killed and his family farm in Mexico stolen by cartel members a couple years ago.

[-]

Substantial-Tone-576@reddit

They have lots of legal businesses as well. That make profit Ms or semi legal like strip mining gold.

[-]

ByKilgoresAsterisk@reddit

Avocados are a big one actually

[-]

Substantial-Tone-576@reddit

Yep. That too

[-]

GCI_Arch_Rating@reddit

There's less to be done about organ harvesting, but human trafficking can also be stopped by removing the profit motive.

The mafia in the 1920s didn't make all its money from bootlegging, but it was a major aspect of it. Once prohibition was ended, the mafia withered to almost nothing until some bright people decided prohibition of different drugs would work this time around. The cartels of today are no different than the mafia of a hundred years ago and can be destroyed just as easily.

The problem is the same thing that empowers the cartels makes sure billions of dollars and unlimited power continues to flow to the police state.

[-]

TacTurtle@reddit

No. Gun shops in Texas are not selling miniguns and M240s and M2HBs 50 cals under the table.

[-]

theaviationhistorian@reddit

let big pharma sell the same substances cheaper

As if they'll do that. This happens and they'll sell it at the same price as the cartel. Or they'll raise the price saying its safer than ones you'd get from cartels.

[-]

theaviationhistorian@reddit

I wouldn't be surprised if this is how it ends for this truck. Getting strafed from a FAM turboprop from high above.

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

Hopefully soon

[-]

ByKilgoresAsterisk@reddit

You must be young to have kissed the last 20 years of war.

Stop watching Fox and move on with your life dude.

There are more dangerous gangs, to US citizens, in the LA sherrifs dept than there are coming in from Mexico.

Again, as far as direct threats to US citizens go.

Look up the GWOT and tell me how you think that will go.

[-]

ByKilgoresAsterisk@reddit

How well did bombing individuals go for the last 20 years?

[-]

damngoodengineer@reddit

These fuckers would take even an A-10A with this kind of armament

[-]

ThachertheCUMsnacher@reddit

This is m134 minigun that shoots 7,62mm rounds, the a10 was able to survive hits from 23mm autocannons during the gulf war. Also the a10 will probably just launch an agm maverick against these guys, they would have now way to know they are being targeted.

[-]

Tiberius-Gracchuss@reddit

So silly thought could this just be that hand cranked 9mm one from tipman ?

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

No it's the real deal I git videos posted of it being used against rivals

[-]

Tiberius-Gracchuss@reddit

They get all the cool toys

[-]

Nego_do_borel14@reddit

Imagine being a regular police officer and just stumbling into one of those

[-]

_JG__@reddit (OP)

It's always goes bad there's videos of like 20 of these guys amusing two officers in a truck
