The ammunition was being purchased from Oasis Outback LLC in Uvalde. It's the same Texas gun shop from where Ramos purchased the rifle found inside Robb Elementary School.Eagle Pass borders the city of Piedras Negras in Coahuila, Mexico, and buying ammunition in this quantity certainly raised a lot of red flags.The 48-year-old businessman Fred Farhat, owner of Farhat’s Boots and Jeans, had paid almost $6,000 in cash for more than 10,000 rounds of .223 and 5.56 x 45 mm ammunition in three separate transactions in three hours, authorities said.Oasis Outback was also where Farhat bought ammo worth $6,000 (Image via Oasis Outback website)Farhat managed to purchase the ammunition from the Texas store with the help of two co-conspirators, a husband and wife duo. The 48-year-old then took the ammo to his establishment and repacked it. They then tried to smuggle it across the border into Mexico but crashed into another car before successfully delivering the ammo to the other side. As per reports, the bullets were meant for a Mexican drug cartel.While Farhat and the wife got caught, her husband managed to escape to Mexico and is still at large. Farhat was sentenced to five years in prison, and the woman was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison.NitazNoTwit@nitaznotwitCall Oasis Outback and ask them why they sold an 18 year old 375 high capacity bullets without question.830-278-400031Call Oasis Outback and ask them why they sold an 18 year old 375 high capacity bullets without question.830-278-4000This does not mean that Oasis broke any laws, as there is no requirement for a store to track or report the purchase of bullets.In all but a half dozen states in the U.S., ammunition can be bought online or in person.
