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...

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.
One can only hope. Bob
