Yep. Thats right. Bammy/Hitlery, 2,547,074

The commie donks ain’t gonna be laying this one on Bush.

In the actual report the data is buried in “Categories” and they are blatant about not detailing it...

“This document reports data on defense articles authorized by USML Category,
aligning the report with the statutory requirements. Previously, data was reported
at the USML Sub-category level, providing readers with more insight on
authorization s for end items versus authorizations for parts and components. For
example this document reports that 46,280 Category J (Firearms) articles were
authorized for Brazil; of those articles, 98 2 (2%) were firearms and the balance of
45,298 are parts and technical data for firearms. Similarly, of the 1,064,921
Category [ articles authorized for Austria, 2,963 (0.03%) are firearms; for the
United Kingdom, of the 1,354,562 articles authorized for export, 33,786 (2.5 %) are
firearms.”

http://www.justf.org/files/primarydocs/655rpt_DCS_2010.pdf

So, if the bammy regime does not want to come clean on the details one can only guess by eliminating possibilities through subtracting Category 2 and 3 from Category 1.

Like this...

Category 1
Firearms, Close Assault Weapons and Combat Shotguns
(a) Non-automatic and semi-automatic firearms
(b) Fully automatic firearms
(c) Firearms and other weapons
(d) Combat shotguns
(e) Silencers, mufflers, sound and flash suppressors
(t) Rifle scopes
(g) Barrels, cylinders, receivers, and complete breech mechanisms
(h) Components, parts, and associated equipment
(i) Technical data

Category 2
Guns and Armament
(a) Guns over caliber .50
(b) Flame thrower:;
(c) Devices for launching or delivering ordnance
(d) Kinetic energy weapon systems
(e) Signature control materials, techniques, and equipment
(t) Engines specifically designed for self-propelled guns and
howitzers
(g) Tooling and equipment

Category 3 Ammunition/Ordnance
(a) Ammunition/ordnance for Categories I & II articles
(b) Ammunition/ordnance handling equipment
(c) Equipment and tooling
(d) Components, parts, and associated equipment:
(1) Guidance and control components
(2) Safing, arming, and fuzing components
(3) All other components, parts, and associated equipment
(e) Technical data

Given current events and in the light of F&F being the mindset of the “administration,” burying the details is HIGHLY suspicious.

Damn sure isn’t two 2,547,000 rounds of ammo and only 74 rifles...

This is not just criminal. These people were engaged in an attempt to subversively overthrow the Constitution of the US, which they had sworn to uphold.
