The Guns of Sicario
The weapons of the Sicario films — Matt Graver's CIA task force, Alejandro the hitman, and the Delta and FBI operators around them — each real gun mapped to a current production model, with the optic it ran where we stock one (or its modern successor). Researched from public sources; not affiliated with the films.
A CIA op, a sicario, and the tools of a very dirty war.
