Another Fast and Furious gun has been identified by the ATF. There are still over 1000 guns out there and nearly all of them either have been or will be connected to crimes.
WASHINGTON — One of the guns that Mexican officials say was found at the hideout of drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman Loera has been found to be associated with Fast and Furious, a failed “gun-walking” operation, according to the Justice Department.
The department said in a letter to members of Congress that a .50-caliber rifle that Mexican officials sent for tracing after Guzman’s arrest in January has been connected to Fast and Furious.
Officials say the weapon was one of 19 firearms that Mexican authorities said were recovered from the hideout and was the only one determined to be associated with the botched sting operation, in which the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives allowed gun runners to buy weapons in hopes of tracking them and disrupting gun smuggling rungs.
Emphasis mine, there was nothing botched about it. It was designed to vilify American gun owners. As a result, the 4 states that border Mexico now have reporting if anyone buys 2 or more so called assault rifles in 5 business days. All a part of Obama and Holders plan to enact any gun control they can get. No one knows how many Mexican citizens have died. You can bet the numbers are probably topping 1000. We kknow of one American killed, Brian Terry.

It wasn't a "Failed gun walking operation". It worked exactly as it was supposed to. They let the guns walk to Mexico, so that they could say the guns were traced to US Gun shops. The only thing "botched" was the fact that it was uncovered. The ONLY reason it was uncovered was that a fellow fed was killed with one of the smuggles weapons. As long as the deaths were only mere mortal "civilians" it was no matter, except for padding the statistics.
Wow, this is so surprising, Why, I would have never suspected such foul, underhanded tactics from the current administration...and then to actually find one in El Chapo's possession, My Goodness, can it be more shocking?
Sorry for the over abundance of sarcasm, but when is someone or are the appropriate someone's going to take the correct form of action against these handlers of corrupt power?
I hope that makes the sense I wanted it to...
