In late October, when Obama’s campaign advisers give him the bad news that he’s going to lose in an historic landslide, the govt. will need lots of ammo, once the people are told that the election will be suspended.

lol...

How many DHS employees have actually been involved in shooting?

I guess they spend most of their time at the range getting ready.

As I have seen on several of the Prepper threads and I roughly paraphrase:

When the SHTF, I’ll know where to go to get some ammunition.

I’m not sure if I should add a “/s” to that.

The Dyke wants to make sure that no resistance is encountered when she and her Commie buddies move to seize the property and impose their rule without the annoyance of elections.

Oh sorry, there will be elections, just one party to vote for.

Theirs.

Original Posted Date: April 17, 2012

this is an amendment to that original April solicitation for leaded target ammo, per the title.

FLETC - Federal law enforcement training center.

Not *sure* this is worth the hoopla. Just not sure.

There wasn’t a legitimately explainable explanation of purchasing 450 million rounds of 9mm hollow point ammunition, let alone and additional 750 million, to boot!

We are looking at a non-military agency, supposedly chartered to protect us from terrorist from without, acquiring over a billion rounds of ammunition! What we are looking at is a three-round burst for each and every citizen in this country if it comes to that.

If that doesn’t make you crap your pants, I don’t know what else would.

DHS is soaking up supply.

They are neither staffed nor chartered to make use of this demand.

Excellent line item for budget cut....along with current management staff.

The purpose of this purchase is to keep the ammo off the civilian market. The increased demand will cause shortages and of course, increased prices.

There is no way this ammunition could even be used ... and that's with every federal employee firing a thousand rounds a day.

This is merely a round-about method of gun control by making the ammo scarce, expensive, and thus harder for civilians to obtain.

Obviously DHS uses the spray and pray technique.
I kind of like controlled, aimed fire myself.

They are driving the cost to us up and when they don’t use them will just destroy them and not even allow citizens whose tax money bought the stuff to purchase the surplus. When democraps runt he government, this is the sort of arrogant crap that results.

DHS: "...ordered "up to" 650-750 million rounds of ammo and also seems to be looking for more weapons"

Simple explanation:

They are trying to help Obama win "Gun Salesman Of The Year Award" again.

450mm + 750mm = 1,200mm / 310mm population = 3.87 rounds for each and every man, woman, & child in the country.

Just read this again.

1.QUESTION - CLIN 0003, Page 2: Would a 223 Rem 64 Grain soft point round be acceptable?

ANSWER - Yes, that would be acceptable.

2.QUESTION - CLIN 0003, Page 2: Would a 5.56 X 45 NATO 62 g JHP round be acceptable?

ANSWER - No. NATO rounds are not interchangeable
with SAAMI specifications identified in the
Statement of Work (SOW) paragraph 2.2, page 48.

So, what gun are they using. A weapon using 5.56 will chamber .223 but, not the other way around.

And look at the dates at the end. This is a FIVE year order. Don’t know what to make of that.
