[QUOTE="JimFromTN, post: 2568928, member: 113268"] He is not talking about ammo hoarding, He is talking about banning the IRS from purchasing ammunition. Those are 2 totally different things. One is putting a cap on how much ammo they can have stockpiled, the other is not allowing them to have ammo at all. The IRS has around 3200 agents in the criminal investigation division. They are sworn law enforcement officers. They make arrests. They carry guns. If 3200 agents go to the range on a weekly basis and shoot 100 rds, that is 8,320,000 rds a year. 3200 agents x 26 weeks x 100rds = 8,320,000 rds of ammo a year. Thats 2600 rds per agent per year. I have a friend whose son is a police officer and he gets more than that a year to practice with. The agents obviously are not doing this or they would need to stockpile even more. 5,000,000 rds does not seem so outrageous at all when you do the math. 5,000,000 /3200 = 1562 rds per agent per year.
