What do they need ammo for?...and sending it to multiple sites across the U.S.? Its all just tale tale now every time something new pops up its just more proof!

The shit just gets deeper and deeper and anyone that isnt preparing is in serious trouble! for that matter even those of us who are could also be in for something way bigger than we think.

They have a criminal investigations / Fisheries Enforcement branch.

And 80 shots per target isn't excessive at all.

Not to mention, they won't shoot 80 per target. They'll need some for the actual officers to carry. So maybe 40-50 per target.

This is actually nothing...
