Insane haul of war weapons Marine, 23, is accused of stealing from California military base

"Corporal Andrew Paul Amarillas, an Arizona native who served as an ammunition technician at Camp Pendleton, is accused of making off with a terrifying haul of restricted 'weapons of war,' including Javelin missile systems and military-grade ammo."

"Prosecutors allege that in one case, Amarillas offered roughly 30 cans of ammunition - about 25,000 rounds - to a co-conspirator. Over the span of about two weeks, investigators say he stole and sold 66 cans of M855 rifle ammunition."

"The Javelin - a 'fire-and-forget' anti-tank missile system - is capable of punching through heavy tank armor from miles away, per Lockheed Martin, which manufactures the Javelin missile system in partnership with RTX."

Corporal Andrew Paul Amarillas, a Marine stationed at Camp Pendleton, is accused of stealing high-tech missile systems and military-grade ammunition. He allegedly treated a military armory as a personal pawn shop, transporting stolen weapons to Arizona for sale. Federal agents have recovered some stolen items, but a significant amount of ammunition remains unaccounted for. Amarillas faces multiple federal charges, including conspiracy to commit theft and embezzlement of government property. He is currently in custody without bail, awaiting trial.
