DHS needs even more training ammunition, but training for what?

Yesterday, the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), located in Glynco, Georgia submitted a request for solicitation for another 240,000 rounds of “training” ammunition.

This time, the request is for 165-grain jacketed hollow point .40 caliber(100,000), 115-grain jacketed hollow point 9mm (100,000),  and 124-grain ball round 9mm (40,000) were listed on the solicitation, with the end date for the request being 11 Feb 2013, only 6 days for a company to produce a quote. Currently, only A2Z Supply Corporation has thrown it’s name in the hat for this bid.

This request comes only weeks after an award of 200,000 rounds of training ammunition given to The Evian Group, Inc. A corporate entity that appears to have been formed out of thin air with less substance than fog. The company’s address doesn’t exist, and the whole bidding process looks like a Chicago-style payoff.
Given that in the past few years, DHS has ordered hundreds of millions of rounds, and still has an ungodly amount at its disposal; this chart will make the ammunition purchases into perspective:

Solicitation # Caliber Contract year Sum used to date 2013 sum Sum remaining
HSCEMS-11-R-00004 .40 S&W 2011 210,000,000 70,000,000 140,000,000
20072346-JTC .40 S&W 2012 60,000,000 30,000,000 90,000,000

If the allotment for DHS is 100,000,000 rounds for this year alone, it would require that 273,972 rounds be used every day of the year. This small batch of ammunition being requested would be used in only  7 hours. This isn’t for training. The stockpiling of ammunition is for a nefarious reason – treason against the American People by a narcissistic megalomaniac hell-bent on the destruction of the American way of life.

Or, this is just another case of governmental graft like the last contract solicitation.

With the questionable award to Evian Group, it will be very interesting if the winner can withstand even a modest investigation.
Who wants to put odds down they can’t.
