The saying used to be control the food control the people, now is it control the ammo control the LEO?
yeah I wear foil and wouldn't put it past .gov progressives.

I read about it in the Denver Post, not know for being a right wing paper. I have never seen the story 'debunked'.
Yea, because when you ignore debunked rumors to slather on an extra layer of tinfoil and paranoia, it makes rumors into truth
A couple of posts before that is a guy saying ammo is available on the internet. BS, I can't find 9mm anywhere.
One guy's post is 'debunking'? That's a new standard. I did notice at the top of the page someone calling BS on there being a 'shortage' at all, saying cabela's is FULL of .223. Uh, yeah, that's nowhere near reality.Police are having trouble buying training ammunition because people stand in line to scarf up every round of popular caliber ammunition when it hits the store.
i will say it once more: All the stuff about DHS buying up the ammo and causing a shortage is trashy conspiracy theory.
The last post on this thread sums up the DHS ammunition buy very well.

Really. How can people cause a shortage when suppliers are limiting the amount of ammo that can be purchase. The local gun shops have no ammo, Midway has no ammo, Natchezz has no ammo, Aim Surplus and other suppliers have no ammo so tell me where is all of this ammo thats being bought up and flipped. Who has it?Police are having trouble buying training ammunition because people stand in line to scarf up every round of popular caliber ammunition when it hits the store.

Yep, the prices are a little steep.
Source? We don' need no stinkin' source. A cop would never bend the rules. Never. Especially not while shooting with a neighbor.Are you implying that cops get free ammo from their departments to shoot personally owned guns on their own time? If so, sources please.
Wake up and smell the coffee.
The only two cops I know.... some how get free ammo from their departments.
. 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.
Well, better Police be short than me. I support them, but they work for me.Not sure what point youre trying to make.
I understand this. I get 'free' ammo from my dept. I get to use it at our departments range to shoot through my duty gun. The post that I quoted implied that cops get free ammo to shoot through their personally owned firearms on their free time. So if that is true, sources please (if the two cops you know do in fact fit the quote that i replied to, i highly doubt they are representative of the hundreds of thousands of LEOs in the US).
American Friends: Sorry we cannot ship this to you. Thank Clinton for that.

In the metro ATL county I live in, the Police get 50 rounds a month minimum (not much I know, but sometimes more than I can get). The powers that be know not what gun, if any, those rounds are fired from. I know some have been sold to civies instead. They are meant for practice.
So, yes, they are often fired out of officers personally owned pistols
