"Arra quince" (pronounced ARE-ah KEEN-say) is Spanish for "AR-15." This is a nickname for the AR-15 rifle, originally manufactured by Colt Firearms, but now made by many other manufacturers. (An AR-15 copy is called a "clone.") Parts are interchangeable between AR-15 rifles made by different manufacturers. AR-15 rifles usually shoot .223 Remington caliber cartridges (called 5.56mm cartridges in the U.S. military), but there are AR-15's chambered for a variety of other rounds as well, including .222 Remington Magnum, 7.62x39mm, 6.8mm SPC and others.
"Que tal, amigo, is that your new arra quince?"
"Si, esta bien, no? Man, I love this rifle! It rocks every bit as bad ass as that Colt your brother bought! Let's go bust some caps, no?"

"Poodle shooter" is a derogatory term for the M-16 and M-4 family of rifles with which the U.S. military is armed. This stems from the fact that the M16, M16A1, M16A2, M16A3 and M16A4 (the "M-4") fire the 5.56mm cartridge, a cartridge that many soldiers and Marines think is underpowered for combat operations. Prior to the Vietnam War, the Army and Marines were armed with he M-14 rifle, which fires a much more powerful cartridge, the 7.62mm NATO round. During the Iraq War and the war in Afghanistan, the M-16 and M-4 proved to be inadequate to the task of longer-range combat engagements and the M-14 rifle was brought out of mothballs and issued to some units.
"Man, this M-4 sucks. Did you see that? I hit that hajii at least three times and he just kept running!"
"I know. The M16 is such a damned poodle shooter. It would be embarrassing except our lives depend on these shitty rifles."

'Cuerna de chivo" (KWEARNA dah CHEE-vo) is Spanish for "Ram's horn." This is a nickname for the AK-47 assault rifle, which has a distinctive curved magazine, bringing to mind the curved horns of a male mountain sheep. It is a fully-automatic machine gun under U.S. law.
The AK-47 has many civilian copies ("clones") which are not technically assault rifles, because they are semi-automatic, and are NOT machine guns under U.S. law. They look very similar to actual AK-47's and to compound the confusion, are often called "AK's". And in Mexican Spanish, also called "cuerna de chivos."
