After high-powered rifles meant to be used by police began turning up on the black market, Paraguay officials started an investigation, the BBC reported.

Paraguay officials say unknown thieves had broken into the National Police’s Department of Armaments and Munitions in Capiatá and made off 42 FAL-type rifles, which had come from Brazil originally, ABC Color reported.

The rifles had been replaced with non-functioning replicas made of wood and plastic, complete with black coloring and carved components — but no firing mechanism, according to InfoBae.

The rifles had been removed from the armory after they had been originally placed into storage to be upgraded to newer models, the BBC reported. A police officer charged with guarding the area has been replaced, according to the site.
Sneaky move on the part of the thieves. I suppose this kind of job is hard without someone on the inside helping out.
