The article showed a mound of junk, but occasional gems such as two 1928 Bergman SMGs, in excellent condition. This was the heartbreaker...

I would be more heartbroken about the Bergmans... :crying:

Years ago, there was a news short with Diane Feinstein showing off new manhole covers made from dozens of confiscated/evidence/turned-in handguns, rifles, and shotguns...She was bragging about how they would never be used for violence again...Not a word about how the money from their legal sale might have fed the hungry, or provided medicine for the homeless, or Kevlar vests for the police... :soapbox:

Here's more, including an image of the Bergmans.

Mexicans are having a field day gaming the system.

With knowledge of the way things work in Mexico and not actually seeing a picture of those Bergman SMGs being cut up. Perhaps some enterprising individual saved those historic weapons from the blowtorch.:evilgrin:
One can only hope.:thumbup:

I'm sure some "Federal" down there has them on his office wall as we speak.

At the bottom of the article is a link https://homemadeguns.wordpress.com/ A blog about improvised guns is something that hadn't particularly crossed my mind, but I guess it figures. Some creative stuff.And some scarey stuff!
