The containers are usually painted olive drab and are unmarked except for indistinguishable numbers/letters probably for inventory, routing, etc.
Reader Don sent this in recently:
Jim – I passed a convoy of olive drab unmarked 40 foot tractor trailers each with four 10 yard ammo bunker boxes chained to them and unmarked armored Hum-Vee’s heading north on I-95 in Brevard County, Florida this past Thursday morning. The “govt” is positioning these ammo storage boxes, I have been told, in strategic places in population centers around the country. They are usually painted olive drab and are unmarked except for indistinguishable numbers/letters probably for inventory, routing, etc.
Obma’s Homeland Security Department has purchased 1.4 billion rounds of ammunition – that is not a typo — during the last six months.
ATK is one company that won a contract with the Department of Homeland Security to provide 450 million rounds of .40 caliber ammunition in 2012.
Previously it was reported that people around the US have begun reporting the site of strange, new, heavily-armed FEMA fighting vehicles this past year.
One set of images made available by Rense.com shows trailer after trailer carrying these new DHS and FEMA armored fighting vehicles, complete with machine gun slots. Theyre labeled with the usual backward American flag and the title, Homeland Security. Below that and the DHS logo, it also reads, Immigration & Customs Enforcement. Joining those markings, the black vehicles with white lettering also display POLICE/RESCUE on one side and Special Response Team on the other.
Whiteout Press reported on the government ammunition purchases back in October 2012.
As we detailed in the August 28 Whiteout Press article History of DHS Ammunition Purchases, federal emergency management agencies are looking more and more like a military army every day.
The federal governments procurement website actually lists DHS requests for bids to supply it with ammunition and military weaponry. All of the orders listed in the above article, including the orders for hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition, are publicly available at http://www.fbo.gov.
One look at a chart of DHS ammunition purchases over the past decade reveals a drastic spike in orders of bullets recently, totaling in the billions of rounds. Other charts available online show a similar drastic spike in the purchases of accompanying weaponry by the Department of Homeland Security.
What is the US federal government preparing for? And why does it feel it needs an army of brainwashed youth, millions of guns, thousands of armored fighting vehicles and literally billions of rounds of ammunition, just to provide relief to the American people during a natul disaster? Any historian will tell you it sounds more like the arming of the Hitler Youth than an army of first responders fighting forest fires and hurricanes.
Look for the Homeland Security ammunition containers coming soon to your community.
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find out where this ammo is being stashed.
Obama Second Reich File.
If the photo is of ammunition coming back from Iraq, then the ammunition that DHS ordered is somewhere else.
That’s some serious skeet shooting. I guess Freepers are the skeet.
A shortage of primers started in 2009 so you can imagine what it looks like now just accounting for consumer demand going through the roof.

We need to know exactly where these are stored. Exactly.
Remember Concord, Massachussetts.

The photo is of containers. We don’t know what is in there. The author assumes it is ammunition.
That could be, but what if the O admin isn’t just screwin’ with folks?
I think a lot of conspiracy theories are put out there just to screw with us. They don’t need the actual conspiracy, they just need enough people to believe it exists and either be in fear or chase fictitious rabbits.
If we were talking about anyone but Obama, I might agree. My own jury is still out on this. I think this admin is capable of about anything.
I believe they are capable, just not competent enough. They would be mired in their own corruption and regulations. Most of these conspiracies had mirrors with the Bush administration and if you dig a little deep into them, you find most are nothing unusual; just regular events that people read into too much. Unfortunately when some on our side (**cough Drudge cough**) start using sources like Alex Jones, the truth is hard to find under all the lunacy.
It is a common handgun round. Most law enforcement agencies and federal agencies have been standardizing to that over the past 8 years.
Hey, was this thread locked earlier?
I got an email from another user saying it was pulled and when I tried to reply to them all I got was a message saying my account was too new to use that ability. I’ve replied to people before and never seen that message.
Here’s all the ammo, Ping.
Makes me wish I had hung on to my ATK stock.
BTW, these aren’t specific ‘ammunition containers’. These are generic Sea Box transport containers. They could transport ammunition or anything else, from MREs to truck parts to mail.

Now, that is a thought that would explain why they want to confiscate the AR type weapons. Flooding the US market with surplus ammo might endanger the dear leader (Dictator).
