Kosovar Albanian rebel representatives living in the US at the time legally purchased a small number of .50 BMG rifles on the civilian market. Those were bolt-action or semi-automatic, not actual anti-aircraft guns. Then they illegally smuggled those rifles to Kosovo.

Ok, not Albania then.

Still can't find a reference to ethnic Albanians shooting down a UN helicopter, or UN helicopters attacking ethnic Albanians.
