California Guardsmen plead guilty to trafficking weapons
The San Diego Tribune reports that California National Guardsmen Staff Sergeant Andrew Reyes, 33, and Specialist Jaime Casillas, 23, pleaded guilty to selling non-military firearms to federal agents;
Authorities said they were also accused of selling military equipment from the California National Guard, including gun magazines, ammunition, ballistic vests and the ceramic shields that go inside the vests.
Casillas was accused of boasting to the undercover agent that he could procure such items, and the investigation began. The transactions totaled some $15,000, authorities said.
Some of the transactions that the men admitted in San Diego court Thursday included the sale of a $1,700 AK-47, a $2,150 AR-15, a .40-caliber pistol and four high capacity .223 magazines, according to the plea agreement.
According to the article, the pair bought the firearms in Texas and then transported them to California. They thought they were selling the firearms to to members of a drug cartel. I guess they aspired to be BATFE agents.

Sounds like they were operating on the Senator Leland Yee business model.
Sell to the cartels before the BATF can.
Shitheads… hope they enjoy their stay in the grey-bar hotel with Bubba, Thor, Julio and Mr. Tiny snarfing down “all they can eat” tubesteak and cockmeat sammiches!
With extra manmeat mayo
Yeah, he will soon be getting MORE tube steak and trouser trout with extra nut butter than he ever wanted courtesy of Bubba & Thor before they pimp him out to the rest of their cellblock!
Why didn’t I think of using the National Guard to sell weapons to agents posing as drug cartel members? That’s brilliant! (takes notes)

All I could think of was funneling state and county non-profit grants to the Sudan. Oh and that pesky bombing of a US Embassy that my friends did.

Just ignore them both and 1) buy my book that states that I was in Russia during the Beslan seige when I was in Colorado and 2) continue to let me contract with the US Government and states and local municipalities.
Thank you for your support! (and money!)

I would just say that they are dumbasses but the fact that they were willing to sell weapons to a drug cartel makes then Scum of the earth.
Here’s another news flash for wanna be arms dealers. The Cartels can get all the guns they want from the corrupt Mexican military and Police, at a lot cheaper prices.
I hope Bubba & Thor have a ball with those roach shit-for-brained dumbfucks.
