"The guaranteed minimum of any contract awarded is 10,000 rounds and is applicable to the base year only." There [b]isnt[/b] an actual order for 165 mill you [b]numpty[/b], its an estimate. This is [b]atndard[/b] procedure in a contract that if needed in time of war that they are capable of supplying the higher amount. This is standard across any [b]civi[/b] - military arms contract. It clearly states in what you linked "Minimum and Maximum [b]Tresholds[/b]", and you even[b] spelt[/b] that wrong buddy. Get educated on a subject before you post it in future.aaaa [/quote] Assclown... In war time the burden of purchasing ammo does not fall on DHS [/quote] Wow!! Brit AC is criticizing spelling????

Minimum and Maximum Tresholds: The contract or contracts for .223 Remington Caliber SD awarded under this solicitation will have a base period of one year, plus four one-year options. The guaranteed minimum of any contract awarded is 10,000 rounds and is applicable to the base year only.
The estimated amount over the 5 year duration of the contract will be 165,000,000 rounds.
165 million round over 5 years = 33 million round/year... or half the consumption of the US army in a war zone (Iraq)... and that is just .223...
And pepper spray..
