I have a question for you all, Why does the regular firearms community shun us in the Air gun community? Our “tool/s” of choice are just as deadly & require just as much talent & practice to operate as yours.

“..Republican Rep. Jason Chaffetz on Thursday asked Nick Nayak, DHS’ chief procurement officer, a question we and others have been asking: Why has the Department of Homeland Security been buying so much ammunition?

“What does not make sense in the information you provided is that Customs and Border Control used (around 14 million) rounds for operational purposes when they rarely fire their guns,” a skeptical Chaffetz said, citing just one example of a particular allocation.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which falls under DHS’s jurisdiction, fired “less than 100 rounds” during 15 shooting incidents last year, according to Humberto Medina, assistant director of ICE’s’ National Firearm and Tactical Training Unit. By this criterion, the DHS stockpile should last a very long time”

Is the govt. intentionally buying our ammo, so we can’t?
