There’s probably more than that in some FReepers’ ammo lockers.

It's a start.

PEWAUKEE, Wis., March 17 (UPI) -- Officials in a Wisconsin city that disbanded its police department late last year said officers left behind 58,000 rounds of ammunition.

Sounds like that ammo got pwned!

"It seems like it is way in excess of what you would need," Mayor Scott Klein said. "It begs the question of why it got up to so much and why would you continue to purchase it."

Zombies.

Pewaukee? PEWAUKEE? You gotta be kidding me! WTF is there to do in Pewaukee that would require that kind of firepower?

Good Lord! Just DONATE it all to the Milwaukee cops, LOL!

Near as I could tell, the main function of the Pewaukee police force was to enhance revenue by handing out traffic tickets.

Wisconsin city that disbanded its police department late last year

Population 10,000 with 25 Officers?

I was thinking the same thing and that there's probably still room to pack some more in... In all seriousness, I have friends who have been buying ammo by the pallet load. which in terms of 5.56mm works out to about a quarter of a MILLION rounds, IIRC, a pop.

This was probably a result of the Homeland Security money that flooded every nook and crannie of the police Nation after 911. Gotta spend that money or lose it, you know.
