Didn't realise Lawrence Fishburn was a south american cop.

Picture 2 - top rifle is a North Korean rifle. Type 68 fixed stock. Very rare, probably from Peru.

That ‘Nam-era M-16, though…

Those fucking electrical taped rubber band pipe guns 😭 At that point just use a god damn knife bother.

What the heck is going on in pic 5? Were these sized from a prison or something? They look like zip and slamfire guns. Wild.

According to Improguns, they were traded among secondary/high school students.

Good catch, thank you! Scary to know this was in a school. Then again, remembering some of my public school experience, I'm not surprised.

Man I'd hate to go out to a sketchy rubber band powered .22 pen gun.
Strange that Laurence Fishburne never talks about his time in the Public Force of Costa Rica just a few years before filming The Matrix.

Came here to say this, you’ve got it covered though

Many of these weapons come from either Nicaragua or Panama.
