They were getting them from the US long before this administration. That is why there was a sting operation to begin with.
What you and the others haven't addressed is why these guns are the gun of choice by the Mexican drug cartel.
Because they work, are easily available and they do not care a lick about "legality" since they are criminals by trade. Perhaps the SAME reason that the cartels are the seller of choice for recreational drugs in the U.S., they have no competition. Mexico "outalws" most guns yet, as with ALL other laws, they are ignored by the criminal cartels. It would pose some SLIGHT additional "costs" on the cartels if they had to rely on alternate sources of weapons, but they simply view ALL laws as "obstacles" to be overcome, not really as a show stopper.
