The nationwide shortage of ammunition has left many police departments scrambling to get their hands on the necessary rounds - with some even bartering among each other.

Meanwhile, Rep. Timothy Huelskamp (R-Kansas) says the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has failed to respond to multiple members of Congress asking why DHS bought more than 1.6 billion rounds in the past year.

Police Chief Cameron Arthur of Jenks, Oklahoma says, "Ammunition and assault weapons in general have skyrocketed...In addition to the fact, not only is it a lot more expensive, but the time to get it could be six months to a year, or in some cases even longer."

Arthur says he is waiting on an order placed last October and that many departments have begun to trade and barter with each other because of the high demand.

"Most police departments are having a very difficult time even getting the necessary ammunition for handguns, shotguns and especially rifles," Arthur said.

With overseas sources drying up and/or not being able to import, maybe DHS sees an opportunity in the future to sell off some surplus ammo.

So to sum it all up the libtards want to take away our firearms (in some way, shape or form) and dry up our supply of ammo. They say we should rely on our police forces for our necessary security and protection BUT, even our police forces are short on ammo since DHS is buying it all the fuck up. Do I have this right?

Now some PD's need to practice ammo conservation. That means when there is one perp and twenty LEO's not all 20 LEO's need to empty their mags into the surrounding neighborhood. Only one or two need to.

Or they figure, fuck it, we cant get any bans enacted, we'll just buy up all the ammo so the citizenry cant get any and all their weapons will essentially be useless.

Hmmmmmm?!?!

Exactly, money is coming out of the social security fund, found out last nite, also found out where a lot of the ammo is being stored. Can't comment no more.
