"Between the huge sums aimed directly at enforcement activities and operations support, expect a large majority of the $88 billion of new IRS funding to directly or indirectly support things like asset monitoring, audits, taxpayer investigations, and legal actions against taxpayers," they continue.
"On the issue of enforcement actives and operations support," Americans for Tax Reform is reminding taxpayers the IRS already has substantial authority and power. This includes ownership of thousands of guns and agents who can be deployed to use them.
The IRS has stockpiled 4,600 guns and five million rounds of ammunition as of Jan. 1, 2019 according to a report from OpenTheBooks published in 2020.
An OpenTheBooks report titled The Militarization of U.S. Executive Agencies shows that, even without the proposed $80 billion increase in funding, the IRS Criminal Investigation Division (IRS-CI) is already heavily armed at the expense of the American taxpayer. How much larger will this unchecked arsenal get if the agency gets more funding?
The current 4,600-gun stockpile includes 621 shotguns, 539 long-barrel rifles, and 15 submachine guns.
According to the Government Accountability Office the ammunition breakdown is as follows:
Pistol and revolver rounds: 3,151,500
Rifle rounds: 1,472,050
Shotgun rounds: 367,750
Fully automatic firearm rounds: 56,000

“Fully automatic firearm rounds: 56,000”...belt fed weapons?
Perhaps they mean chained ammo?
I bet the citizens of my rural MO county has about the same
need to be on the lookout for them there “Fully automatic firearm rounds”
From the Rittenhouse trial, I understand that the full metal jacket ones are particularly deadly!
SBRs, maybe, as well.
Katie Pavlich is soooooooo yummy! (Ahem. Sorry. I couldn’t help myself.)
Yeah, my first thought was “slackers”. Then I remembered that feds can shoot people at will with no repercussions.
Easy big fella!
What does the IRS need with guns anyway? Intimidation to collect taxes?
Hi.
How Many Guns Does the IRS Have?
Hopefully not enough.
5.56mm
It’s not how many guns they IRS has, it’s how many guns they have ACCESS to. Buy my estimate, about 4 million.

I seem to remember Obambi hired 20,000 more IRS agents and accompanying 20,000 shotguns.
I think the general public would be surprised at the ethnic makeup of the current IRS. I know the Memphis branch had at least one or two whites.
The communist-driven election fraud/cheating has been going on since 1948 and escalating ever since...
2020 was their 'in-your-face" victory moment and the sheeple just rolled over into the fetal position...
J-6 simply gave the communists the opportunity to make the "in-your-face" tyranny permanent...
The sheeple showed their approval by not doing something about the suffering J-6 POWs...
Simply put, we now live in a communist country with its typical farcical ballot box elections...
What to do? That is the question...
1 is too many.
And where are they? Does the IRS have any boats?
I’ve been in IRS offices and seen boxes of Bulletproof vests. Three boxes of them maybe 15 or 18 vests.
lol!
They’re going to need a lot more.
