UPDATE: Based on online analysis of the photos, it appears to be an inert style RPG replica used for training purposes.
Michael W. Humphries, Director of the Nogales Customs Department, said CBP officers working on outbound operations seized a rocket grenade launcher and two rocket-propelled grenades (RPG) that were hidden in a car attempting to cross the border into Mexico on December 28, 2024.
CBP officers discovered the weapon hidden inside the cowl of a car. The launcher appears to be an RPG-7.
The seizure of the military type weapon at the Nogales border crossing is in addition to the confiscation of 1.5 million fentanyl pills detected at the same border crossing between December 4 and 22, according to information provided by the CBP.

In October, an officer involved shooting at the border crossing resulted in the wounded suspect being taken to the hospital. The CBP said the altercation occurred in the Southbound lanes of the DeConcini Port of Entry.
It has not yet been reported who the driver of the car was nor which criminal organization in Mexico was behind the arms trafficking attempt.

Doesn’t make sense at all Eastern European made weapon coming from the US??? Law rocket I would say ok, but some1 had to smuggle that RPG into the US just to attempt to smuggle into Mexico. Makes almost no sense. I think it’s easier. To get a rpg shipped to a Mexican port over Long Beach or Los Angeles.
ReplyDeletePort traffic doesn't go south to Mex. Attn. Local 13
DeleteMaybe made in usa? They produced a lot soviet stuff during the last 50years. Also you can by AK brand new with an made in USA sticker. Dont try to blame others for your craziness.
DeleteIt makes all the sense in the world.
Delete9:24
DeleteKeep dreaming.
Obviously you never heard of copyright laws, better yet patent laws.
very nice
ReplyDeleteThis needs to be fully investigated. Gun shops don't sell this stuff. This came from a military weapons warehouse which means that Mexican cartels now have bribed some of our military people guarding this. They have infiltrated our military. If this isn't reason enough to send in our special forces units to Mexico and blast these turds then what is? We need to come together and support Trump for this decision! Nuff Said!!!
ReplyDeleteVas a ir tu enfrente de la invasion buey? O nomas eres otro lambe huevos de los gabachos.
DeleteWe don't use rpg7 or any rpg in our military. That is russian/European
DeleteMany military weapons have been stolen from the military by far-right home grown terrorist groups, throughout years, so shut up racist prick!
DeleteNuffy the US military doesn't stock Russian made RPGs.
DeleteWhat we know is, that they were snuggled from a foreign country into USA, then taken into Mexico.
@9:59 You are one of many people who’s comments allow for other readers to dislike El Trump… your comment has no weight to it.
DeleteFact: Bribing officials (even Americans) IS and always will be a way for any criminal organization to enhance their ability to influence and achieve their goals; Money talks bs walks.
The US will never invade MX, there are too many interests at hand to just do that.
Your point of an RPG being smuggled into MX is highly dangerous, I get that, but it doesn’t merit the idea that an invasion or attack from US into Mexican soil should happen. It’s just not going to.
The fuck you talking about? You need to clean your ass firta before trying to "invade" other countries, shit if anything Mexico should be the one invading you for not having control of your military and sensing RPG's to Mexico
DeleteMexicans have a lot of money and americans are always looking for it. Dont you think that your SOF would not take money from the cartels?!?!? Jajajaja
DeleteYeah surely Trump will save all of your redneck mountain dew drinking inbred ass fools by invading one of your closest allies and the source of your workforce. Come on and send over your uncultured sons and daughters to get killed!
DeleteY tu eres un cobarde buey lambe huevos de los carteles que no quieres hacer nada por miedo.
Delete1:02am Yo si voy a pelear guey. Les parto toda la madre a los carteles. Yo soy un superheroe menso.
Delete5:56am I am not racist. I just speak the truth. I have never seen a far right group use an RPG. Ever.
7:34am Why would they smuggle this into the U.S? Wouldn't it be easier to smuggle straight to Mexico where customs agents are easily bribed? Doesn't make sense. Maybe European countries gave the U.S these weapons so we can then give to Ukraine. Some countries are afraid to help Ukraine directly and they use us as middle men. Some got stolen during this process.
8:06am Look buddy we all have opinions. That is why America is beautiful. We have the freedom to speak our minds which is protected under the first amendment of our constitution. If my comments are so important to make people think a certain way about Trump then those people are very ignorant.
8:50am It won't be a full military invasion dummy. We will do operations like the one we did to kill Osama Bin Laden in Pakistan. We did not invade Pakistan. We went in fast and then out after killing terrorists that want to harm Americans. Cartels are terrorists that kill Americans everyday with fentanyl.
9:26am Mexico and cartels have money that come from America. We pump billions into that country every year. The money that cartels use to bribe comes from drug sales here in America.
9:58am Our special forces are the best in the world. Just ask Bin Laden dummy. For every one special forces American that could possibly die I guarantee you that five hundred cartel members would die. Buffy and I drink coke not mountain dew.
Nuff Said!!!
Bribed shut up, you watch to much narcos. More like some American saw a way to make money. Our military is amazing driving cars into crowds of people and blowing up trucks.
DeleteSo. An RPG was smuggled to USA to be smuggled to Mexico ??? lol.
Delete11:42 no pues si se ve que eres un superheroe menso! Tu nombre es Super Menso 🤣
Delete11:42 I see that the fent that you are comsuming is really strong
Delete10:50 Cual miedo buey. Yo no apoyo a los carteles dandoles dinero para que hagan su desmadre y tampoco ando de hocicon pidiendo que manden a los gabachos a invadir. Tu y tu tlacuachada no anden de tecatos y veras que todo va estar bien.
DeleteSi tantos huevos y ansias por justicia tienes firma contrato con las fuerzas armadas o seras igual de culon como tu idolo que puros paros sacaba para no hacer su servicio militar.
9:59/11:42 Que vas a peliar tu alucin. Eres puro hocico. Ya porque te las pasas jugando jueguitos de balazos piensas que va ser asi. Ponte a meterle el chile a tu mentada Buffy aunque sea de silicon. "We".

ReplyDeleteNot a random bust.
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
Delete1. It was tracked and then seized after an informant gave it up.
2. It’s propaganda to make it seem as if southbound lane checkpoints are effective.
It’s just for show
Proof?
DeleteHow are these weapons allowed into our country(u.s)? American citizens are not allowed to own rpg’s.
ReplyDeleteWe're allowed to own 40mm grenade launchers.
DeleteWhy not, you can buy a gatling gun in the store, .50 machine gun. An RPG isnt that far.
DeleteWhere the grenade launchers at?
ReplyDeleteIn da Nalgas.
DeleteBarak Obama supplied the cartels with military weapons . Operation Fast and Furious !
ReplyDeleteOld fuken news, get a life.
DeleteThis stinks to high heaven. There's no booster motors on the rocket like it's a prop. And smuggling a eastern block weapon that south American governments use from the US?
ReplyDeleteThis is not an actual RPG, it's an RPG trainer which uses a 7.62x39 round, so it's basically a bolt action firearm which is designed to train to use an actual RPG.
ReplyDeleteIt’s a fake Dummies!! go to the Internet look one up you can buy one ll😹🙀💀☠️
DeleteIt's the real McCoy.
DeleteYou can't tell the difference.😂
its look like an rpg but its been demiled the rockets dont have the booster motors thats a dead giveaway they are missing you can but them in the internet for about 1000 dolares and the rockets about 400 each or you can buy the soft air ones same look but fake
