And then some:

The FC search team also recovered 85 thousand rounds of different types, 69050 rounds of Dragunov rifle, 1020 rounds of 12.7 mm gun, 4320 rounds of Kalashnikov, 227 fuses of 40 mm rockets, 178 kilograms of explosives, 900 detonators, 250 meters of detonating wire, two 303 rifles and one 32 bore pistol. In another raid the FC personnel recovered 104 mortars, 100 land mines, 40 china rifles and 660 kgs of explosives from Loop Sherani area.

#3  *Love* the title, Seafarious. But would the RAB really want to acquire that much stuff? Given that each bit needs to be properly stored between uses, and regularly dusted and polished to remove fingerprints and all. I think they're happier continuing in their ultramodern, minimalist way. ;-)

#1  These must be some serious "miscreants". Around here miscreants do cow tipping and toilet paper trees.
