There’s probably more than that in some FReepers’ ammo lockers.

That is 193 rounds per officer assuming they were required to put in range time once a month if viewed as a year’s supply. This isn’t even an adequate supply for a whole year so hopefully it was a six month supply.

The mayor is clueless.

Well, let’s do the math. That’s 2000 practice ammo per officer and then 8000 ammo to have on hand for the entire force. I don’t see why anyone would see this as excessive. How often do police practice and how much ammo do they use. I have no experience with it, but it seems perfectly logical to me.

Hey, my grandfather used to live in Pewaukee!
I used to play in the park next to his home.

Maybe there were a lot of dangerous dogs in their jurisdiction?

“It seems like it is way in excess of what you would need,”

I want that ammo.
Why?
Because, there is no overkill, there is only open fire and reload.
And what’s with the “Need” part of that?
Didn’t they last year state that the law enforcement agencies “NEED” bazillions of rounds of ammo ‘just in case’?
But, it is nice for once to see that “need” herring aimed at someone other than a citizen.

They deserved to be disbanded. What kind of people would leave that much ammo behind instead of getting some range time in their last month?

A Waukesha County sheriff's lieutenant said a department of the city's size would require less than 11,000 rounds of ammunition a year.

With 24 officers, that works out to 38 rounds per month per officer. Less than 10 rounds per week. Barney fife rations.

PEWAUKEE, Wis., March 17 (UPI) -- Officials in a Wisconsin city that disbanded its police department late last year said officers left behind 58,000 rounds of ammunition.

Sounds like that ammo got pwned!
