  1. I had that idea a long time ago. Get a cheap freighter, hire a bunch of Marines, go to Yemen to stock up on Russian weaponry then charge $1 million a pop for an AK. Charge extra for a PKM or RPG, look around for a French 75 and charge big bucks for shooting that.
    Sail around the Horn of Africa.
    $Profit!
