Huge Weapons Cache, Fake Credit Cards Seized in Boise Bust (http://www.boiseweekly.com/CityDesk/archives/2014/10/10/huge-weapons-cache-fake-credit-cards-seized-in-boise-bust)


“This morning’s arrests tell two important stories: why we place such importance on investigating financial crimes like credit card theft and retail fraud, and why officers need to protect themselves using the best protective gear, including protective vehicles, we can provide them," said Police Chief Michael Masterson.

The Boise Police SWAT team was there, and for good reason. According to Masterson, "The suspects were found with access to an arsenal of weapons, including those commonly referred to military-style assault weapons."

Would it really impose too much on a reporter to ask their LEO's to list the make & model of the cache contents? I see FMJ rounds that haven't been delinked. No doubt the LEOs will refer to those as military grade, armor piercing rounds. I see no MGs that would use the linked ammo.
