Ok, so I got to see some stuff today.
Definately AR-10s down here along with other stuff. Felipe was watching me like a hawk today but I snuck a couple of pics as we were going onto the airbase.   I'm really tired and we have a big day tomorrow, so I'll have to finish the write up later. |

Allright.
There are 100's (but probably not 1000's) of AR-10s there. LOTS of various bolt actions. Quite a few M-1 carbines, some Garands and I even saw a few Johnsons. Lots of ammo as well. I'm working on the import stuff. Got a weird call though. My Moroccan contact at their embassy wants me over for lunch tomorrow, but he told me not to talk about it with Felipe at all. Hmmmm. |

Can we even import stuff from Cuba? I didn't think so. Hence the whole no Cuban cigars thing, etc...

Plenty of other weapons from embargoed grops and countries have made it in this way historically. |

You will still have to get the ATF to sign off on everything. That will be the biggest challenge. They have also been known to sign off on paperwork and then when the product arrives seize it and arrest the owners claiming they committed some sort of fraud. So watch your step. |

The recent Type 53 Mosins that were imported originated in China. But they weren't imported from China. Besides, much of what I'm looking at ORIGINATED in the United States.

On a related topic regarding Cuba, the Bacardi distillers have celebrated their 150th anniversary this month. They began in Santiago de Cuba in 1862, and in 1960 the bearded socializmos seized their property without compensation. These "gusanos" have had the last laugh; Barcardi is possibly the largest group of distilleries on the Planet; privately traded in proper Capitalist fashion, of course!

SHIT JUST GOT REAL!!!! So, I go to the Moroccan embassy (they sent a car) and Felipe MUST go along, but he can't go in the embassy. I meet with my wife's friend and in comes an American. He shows me some CIA creds and says he is a former Po po from NYPD and starts talking shop (he knows all about me). Then he says they are REALLY interested in some shit on that base and wants me to help him. He tells me he might be able to grease some wheels for me with State and Customs. |
