The Intel Hub alerts us to a shocking new defense contract entered by the Department of Homeland Security to secure a massive amount of ammunition, with the option for infinite supply, infinite delivery.

ATK Awarded Contract to Supply 450 Million Rounds of .40 Caliber Ammunition to the Department of Homeland Security

ATK has secured a major Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity deal to supply up to 450 million rounds of .40 caliber ammunition to the Department of Homeland Security.

The 1 year contract with four option years comes at a time when many Americans believe that DHS, along with certain aspects of the military, will soon turn their sights on the American people during some sort of martial law scenario.

“We are proud to extend our track record as the prime supplier of .40 caliber duty ammunition for DHS, ICE,” said Ron Johnson, the president of ATK’s Security and Sporting group,” reported a PR Newswire release.

The Department of Homeland Security has been extremely busy in the last few months.

Travis,

CBP alone has about 25,000 armed agents and officers. Each go through over 1,000 rounds a year in just qualifications.

They are going to use these high-tech cutting-edge hollowpoints for training? Really? 450 million rounds? Really? This is not “range ammo” being purchased. This is not “blammo.” These are expensive “defensive” rounds.

Can you please tell me how many armed federal agents there are, total, in the DHS?

Yes, we don't use different ammo. Same ammo for training as for duty carry.

I'd say DHS has over 50,000 armed Agents/Officers.

CBP has 25,000 itself. Then you have ICE/HSI and the others.
