Did anybody yet think that maybe this blog post is simply -wrong-??

OK, according to a freepmail somebody sent me, the 450 million rounds is the -maximum- potential order and includes options going out for four years. For DHS and ICE.

I don’t know how many employees there are between those two departments, but I’ll take a wild guess at 20,000. Using that number, then 450,000,000/20,000=22,500 per person. If they practice once a week for four years, that works out to be just over 100 rounds a week for practice ammo. Two boxes.

Sure there’s a lot of guesswork in that arithmetic, but it doesn’t sound so scary.
