Probably distributed with “License to Kill” permits that ordinary cops don’t have.
Also driving the costs up for citizens.
That has been ongoing for years now. No one seems to understand the ramifications of this activity. Certainly none within the political ranks, as they have remained silent.
They are itching for a fight.
Load up on black tip steel ammo.
When the people fears the government, there is tyranny. When government fears the people, there is freedom. Things are upside down. The solution is simple. Shutter all these weaponized agencies. Yes, even the IRS. Go to a federal consumption tax collected with state sales taxes and eliminate the entire tax code. Send every scumbag IRS employee to the unemployment line.
I’m not sure if this is the case for guns and ammo, but it is most certainly the case for armored vehicles and heavy military equipment. For a variety of reasons, see below, Congress wants the production lines running on various military items. Here’s why. Contracts to supporters, jobs, votes, keeping the cost low for the military. The way this works is, the military per item cost goes way down the more of each item is built. So gifts to foreign governments even though they are paid for by the same taxpayer, stops a taxpayer revolt when the taxpayer sees those same items in the military buy-list at a huge price. To see how much more each item might cost, consider the price of a sofa and loveseat. You can often buy a used car for the cost of said sofa and loveseat. That’s because the cars and their parts spread over many models are produced in their millions so there is economy of scale. But a particular sofa and loveseat may have a few hundred total copies made. Even though the car has millions of hours invested in design, it is produced by machines and a huge rate. Sofa and loveseat, probably by hand. The more of any item made the lower the cost. (Follow the money...and the bribes.)
We DO actually need some Common Sense gun control, but of a different type than is usually discussed.
Internal Revenue Service and the Environmental Protection Agency.

Sounds like gov’t agencies are preparing for the revolutionary transition into Socialism.
So every federal agency can have a Gestapo element.
If I worked for a government agency I would want my own machine gun as well. No real need for it, but a new toy is always fun. Ammo paid for by uncle sam? Sounds good.
And we are told our munitions to fight war are dwindling.
Which war?
I remember reading once that the Department of Education has its own SWAT team.
I’d barely trust any one of those fools with a ball point pen, much less, anything that propels a 124 grain projectile at 1200 fps.
As I recall these agencies caused last ammo shortage when 0 was in office
Their army when the call goes out
"Non-Law Enforcement Agencies Like IRS and EPA Spend Billions on Guns and Ammo, Watchdog Says"
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Not only must the "power of the purse" House take responsibility for this spending, but peacetime Congress probably doesn't have a reasonable explanation for why it's arming constitutionally undefined, so-called feedral regulatory agencies that are not under the umbrella of the militia.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 16: To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia [emphases added], and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;"
No Big Deal!
Our communist masters know that the pathetically servile and indolent Aamerican people will just continue to roll over and spread their collective cheeks...
