Local law enforcement face ammo shortage as gun owners, DHS stock up

Published March 23, 2013

| FoxNews.com

Local law enforcement agencies across the country are facing an ammo
shortage, as gun owners concerned about new laws at the federal and
state level stock up on firearms and bullets.

At the same time, the Department of Homeland Security has said it
*wants* to buy more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition in the next
four or five years -- which could put further strain on the supply.

The shortage, coupled with an increase in prices, comes as many gun
owners head to the stores in anticipation of new gun control laws.
States like Colorado and New York have already approved such
legislation, while Democrats move toward bringing a bill to the Senate
floor. At the moment, the congressional bill does not include an
assault-weapons ban, but a ban is expected to be floated as an amendment.

Still, what one official described as "panic-buying" set in, as
lawmakers rallied to draft new legislation in the wake of a series of
tragic mass shootings last year, from Aurora, Colo., to Oak Creek, Wis.,
to Newtown, Conn.

------

The shortage is being cause by "panic buying" by gun nuts, not by mass
purchases of ammo by a federal agency.

There are dozens and dozens of calibers used in firearms and within
those categories of dozens of different varieties. DHS is only intending
to buy ammo in a couple of these categories, and has no use for ammo in
most of the calibers available.

Ammo *is* in short supply, an artificial situation caused by gun owners
and ammo manufactuers, the former because they are just plain stupid
sheeples and the latter because they see a way to make extra bucks.

Who is a stupid sheeple? Your buddy Herring, for one, who apparently
drives over to Wal-Mart every morning to see if he can buy five more
boxes of ammo.

If the DHS wants to buy a boatload of ammo over the next five years, it
will contract directly with the manufacturers, and the manufacturers who
get the contracts will ramp up production of the calibers the agency
wants. There is no shortage of ammo manufacturers willing to suck on the
government's teat for five years.

Heh. I just scolded him for the same thing. I think he reads the
headlines only, not the article.





Schooled what? I said that they were buying up 1.6 billion rounds, you
challenged me, I put up the article....

think the DHS did before, use rocks for ammo? They buy ammo all of the
time, you fool.
