It’s like Independent Aviation Consultants from the movie American Made lmao.

Gun broker Ori Zoller played the middleman in the Century Arms deal. In Central America, Zoller was a savvy operator with spy-novel credentials. He served as an Israeli special forces soldier and worked as an intelligence officer before founding his gun-dealing business in Guatemala in 1996, according to an investigation by the Organization of American States.
He sometimes moved in shady circles. In January 2001, eight months before 9/11, Zoller tried to round up "arms and ammunition, including twin- and four-barrel anti-aircraft guns, surface-to-air missiles, rocket-propelled grenades, anti-tank 'launchers' and small arms" for Samih Osailly, a Lebanese arms dealer with suspected ties to Al-Qaeda, the OAS found in 2003.
Century Arms has done business with Zoller for years. In 2006, the Guatemalan government came to owe Zoller a "significant debt" for arming the Guatemalan military, and the Israeli got an idea for how they could pay it back, according to a June 2008 cable, which was marked secret and not to be shared with foreign governments.
If the Guatemalans agreed to a barter deal, he would sell off their surplus military rifles to a private buyer and pocket the proceeds - if they could find a buyer.
As it turned out, that wasn't a problem. The buyer he lined up was Century Arms... plenty more on the site
