FFS I just occasionally started to see Aguila being stocked in small quantities. Scratch all hope of seeing that again any time soon

Yep most 53’ trailer hold about 45,000 lbs of cargo. They normally steal the entire trailer. Remember next time you’re buying your Aguila .22LR you maybe supporting the cartel. Interesting for sure.
