Mexican Drug Gangs Celebrate Cinco de Mayo With Pimped Out Weaponry

I see these folks are all so poor and bedraggled down in Mexico. No wonder they're clamoring to cross the border.

Mexican soldiers have seized an arsenal of gold-plated and diamond-encrusted weapons believed to belong to the Valencia gang, allies of the powerful Sinaloa drug cartel and, it seems, fans of hip-hip excess.

Showing just how flamboyant gang members spend much of their ill-gotten wealth, pictures show how most of the 31 'pimped' pistols found in a raid on a home in western Mexico had gold or silver-plated grips or were glittered with diamonds.
Three of the assault rifles are almost entirely gold-plated and there was even a silencer plated with gold. One particularly image-conscious gangster has made his pistol unique by adding rows of gaudy red and green jewels and a Ferrari logo.
Of course if authorities in Arizona find any of these guns it'll be racist or something.

They're even accessorizing with silver-plated magazines. How stylish!

This one even has diamond settings.
