You don't have to break the law to get into trouble in Mexico. You just need to look like a good target - to criminals and police alike. No joke. We use to go several times a year with friends before we all had kids. It's simply too dangerous now, even in the border towns. Used to be so much fun, it's a shame things have turned this way. Even the border towns on our side are shady at best.

If I was going to go accross now, first I need a really good reason. Second, I would never take a gun. I'm sure people still hunt accross the border and I think they can take their guns, but I'm sure there's plenty of pre-work that has to be done before you go. Even then, I'd use guns from the ranch I was visiting before I transport mine over there.

Nothing against Mexico, or it's people. That's just the way I see it. And, well, after all, it is Mexico.

Pawn shop would work in pinch, but just check that their hours of operation fit your schedule so you can pick it back up when you're ready.
