Hey Guys, please note this article is dated January 4th, 2013. I ran across an article on WND a little while ago that sourced this Examiner article.

I can't imagine this article has languished since January 4th without someone posting it on FR for discussion.

Anyway, I would appreciate any input on this story. I could not spot any previous articles on FR referencing information in this article.

Also if you have time and feel like doing some internet research, there seems to be some very "mysterious goings on" regarding everything about this contract, Evian Group, its officers, etc., etc., etc.

My question is what contingency plan is driving these purchases? The number of rounds being purchased is driven by some anticipated need that leads to a bureaucratic decision.

The article is a little confusing. It states Federal Ammo and then talks about this Evian outfit possibly being the manufacturer. Must be some sort of a shell corporation.

21 cents a round for 40 cal. hollow point ammo does not sound like a legit price.

They’re just making sure they have enough ammo to supply their buyers in Operation Fast and Furious.

A LEO recently told me that hollow points are not used in target practice because they are way too expensive for that.

Why did the DHS purchase 1.8 billion rounds of .40 cal hollow point rounds?

If everyone would ask their rep this question it would at least let them know that we know and that we expect answers.

Why aren’t our loyal conservative radio talk show hosts harping on this issue every day until this is addressed by investigative committees and highlighted in the news? If the radio conservatives are too scared to mention it on the air then we are screwed.

Don’t wait for the investigative journalists to say anything about it. They get paid by the same fabian communist globalists cadre who ordered the purchase of these rounds.

“Hollow-Point”ammunition is banned by The Geneva Conventions for use against ENEMY combatants,but I guess they are alright to use against Law-Abiding Americans who just might want to take their country back?????????????????????

I recall reading an article here on a gov ammo purchase through the fake Evian company. I’m guessing this is the same purchase. Something’s not on the up and up. At first, I assumed hussein was either furnishing these to his special civil army or to our enemies. After the questions surrounding Sandy Hook and his push for gun control causing even more shortage above his gov purchases, well, it’s all connected. Long live the 2nd!

Has anybody ever considered that they are buying imaginary ammo with a paper trail indicating it was all used up on the range?

That’s a lot of money moving around with the opportunity for some kickback.

My observation is that it was said these are ‘hollow points’. Not your typical range ammunition. What is the stockpiling for then? Curious.
