#1 Now it turns out that one of Sinaloa's hit men had a house with a bunch of F&F weapons in it, along with an anti-aircraft machine gun and a rocket launcher.

They got his house, but didn't get him.

And one of the US side F&F gun smugglers got a 6-1/2 year federal sentence, then one month later escaped from a minimum security prison in Tucson, and is believed to have gone back to Mexico.

#2 More like a stand alone grenade launcher, not an under the barrel job (HK-79). (You can see it on the top shelf to the right, similar to an HK-69) Neither can be bought retail; they had to have come from a larger entity's arsenal, like stolen from a government.

Maybe some of the assault rifles were semi-automatic weapons sold retail in Arizona, but they all weren't.

As an aside, reading the numerous reports of killings and violence since April, 2010, when we first started covering the Mexican drug war, I have not, but for the July 16, 2010 Juarez car bomb, read of any attack which used explosives of any kind.
