    1. A charger is a car. In spanish or to be more accurate in mexico a clip is called cargador. Cargador is the spanish word for charger so in this case charger= gun clip

  4. Interesting to see CDN in Reynosa. Is this a recent development?

    Or are the remaining Metros not affiliated with Panilo being assaulted by Escorpiones/Ciclones linking up with CDN in an effort to maintain their lives?

    I suppose it would make sense if the Vieja Escuela Zetas are linked to the Matamoros CDG.

  6. Ok so first off in reynosa violence hasnt stopped at all from the day they killed el toro. Number two the cdn doest come all the way into reynosa they probe whats called la frontera chica which is between nuevo laredo and reynosa. That territory belongs to el primito and his cdg faction. He also is trying to control or in fact controls the metros faction after the arrest of el flaco sierra.The matamoros faction and any leftovers from panilo are fighting los metros and el primito for control of reynosa. The cdn sends their shooters to el primitos turf and always gets their asses kicked back to nuevo laredo. So any shootouts in reynosa are cdg factions vs another faction or cdg vs mexical law enforcement. Never cdn.As far as the comment above of tamaulipas the cdg keeps news from leaking out pretty good but valor por tamaulipas reynosa codigo rojo and a few other places news do get out and you can put together whats going on if you look.
