The government is buying a ton of ammo. As far as I can tell DHS is the primary culprit but I've read reports that the IRS, BTAF and a few other agencies have their hands in it also. I wasn't too concerned because everthing that I see claims that all of the ammo is .40. I don't shoot 40 so...
Anyway, I reads that this year the gov has purchased/ordered more than two b(with a B) illion rounds and has them stored all over the place in large unmarked containers. Reporters have asked about these purchases and simply been told that it's not unusual and the ammo is needed for qualifying practice (uh-huh).
I Binged "government ammunition purchases" and got 647,000 hits so it probably isn't an unfounded concern.

Yes this has since been debunked. There was an order, but the way it was reading (multiplying across each line item) is incorrect.
