DHS running low on ammo again?

[DS727]

Just to be "fair"...

The following agencies are under the Homeland Security umbrella.

FLETC - Federal law enforcement training center.
US Customs/Border Patrol/ICE
US Secret Service
US Coast Guard

DHS has approx 180,000 employees and they spend approximately $1,933,333.33 per employee.

lol yea jokes and comments were abundant during that class. He /did/ supervise and allow people to fire his gun with the giggle switch though, after it was over, which was nice. Although I hear it came with the comment "You paid for it anyways" so he did get his snark in too

Meh, guess I'll be hanging on to that last bit of .40 I had up for sale...
Closing thread in 3...2...

No. There was an order for both FMJ and HP. Therefore, if they only have one bullet type for BOTH carry and training why have different style ammunition.

We use HP for duty carry and quals. The FMJs are frangibles for indoor ranges and plates.

Heard this morning they have two orders for 40cal too. Whats the deal with the uniforms?

Another thread about this? We need a search button here so people can make sure what they're posting hasn't been discussed half a dozen times... Wait...

Either way, let the uninformed panic begin.

It's all for the new civilian army Obammy spoke of years ago. He's just living his dream

Janet Napolitano just read World War Z and wants to make sure we have enough ammo to sweep the nation for zombies!

 

[oleheat]

Seems like they have no ammo shortage issues- which is good.

So I'd be more concerned about why USBP Agent Brian Terry met his death using a bean bag shotgun facing the AKs given to his killer by our own gov't- and why this is no longer being discussed in our "watchdog" news media. To me, that's a bigger issue.

Then ignore the thread.

Pointing out that the story has hit "mainstream" news, as apposed to WND, Infowars, etc.

Normal qualifications and use. Uniforms? Well, the contract is under review for some of the agencies. The secretary of DHS wants all DHS to get uniforms from the same supplier instead of each agency negoiating their own deal. In other words, she wants to negotiate at the DHS level. Nothing new or nefarious here. Just more govt red tape.

Jesus. Aren't we SUPPOSED to ask questions about things like this???

"...And these sheepdogs, the smarter, more perceptive ones among them, are
infinitely suspicious of the lupine-mandarin class who continually try to
overstep the boundaries the Founders of the flock set..."

Keep asking.

I would prefer people ask questions and research these things BEFORE freaking out. The problem isn't asking questions the problem is jumping to conclusions.
