>notice that many of the vehicles don't have turret mounted machineguns but rather it's just a spot for a guy to stand up with a rifle. not very effective
Just watched it again because it's such a train wreck.
Guy firing his weapon? His bipod was waving around in the breeze. Has to set it down before he can hoist it high in the air, LOL. And that cover behind him? Doubt it affords him any real protection, but it is a massive blind spot in an ambush from the rear. The other ones that had front facing shields? Left them utterly exposed from the rear as well.
One had expanded steel mesh over the windows, they must've noticed that the US CBP uses it. But it's not tactical, it's protection from illegals throwing rocks. They're nowhere near serious enough to take on a real military and, without the threat of reprisals against civilians, they're clearly not prepared to face guerilla fighters either.
