Yeah..just how I kinda figured. It was military cats doing some of the supplying to gangs..

 Am I saying all military are doing this? No...So don't read that into this., But they had to be coming from somewhere...and not just the Internet.

Marines sold military assault weapons to L.A. gang members, authorities allege [Updated]

November 9, 2010 |  3:04 pm

Four U.S. Marines have been arrested for allegedly selling rifles and assault weapons to gang members in Los Angeles.
Federal and state authorities told The Times that the investigation has been going on for several weeks and that it involves allegations that the Marines sold guns to gang members operating in the San Fernando Valley.
The suspects face state weapons charges, the sources said.
The sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the case is ongoing, said officials plan to release more details about the case soon.
The arrests come several days after federal officials served search warrants at a home in San Clemente. At the time, officials declined to say what the probe was about. The San Clemente Times took photos showing boxes full of weapons apparently seized from the house, including large military-style weapons.
