The number reported 1600M you might think means 1600 million, which is 1.6 billion. The QUP abbreviation (Quantity Unit Pack) "M" = 50. The purchase order was for 1600 boxes of 50. Page 29 of the Defense Customer Assistance Handbook list what Federal Govt QUP abbreviations represent.

No because the same people who are trying to ban guns and ammo will move on to reloading supplies.
Make your own bullets fine, make your own gun powder even better, but no again because the chemicals needed to make those are controlled by the same people who are doing the rest of that stupidity.
There is no way around that.
Not even going to touch Rothchilds, and Reptilians.

Obama's 1.6 billion bullet stockpile... A possible reason why?
One reason can be that the Obama administration wants to be sure having enough ammo....... when the factories are not able to make them anymore. The reason why the factories do not make them anymore can have all kinds of reasons...like...a total chaos has captured the nation and nobody is going to work anymore.

I'm worried that maybe the reason that they are draining your ammunition isn't just to stockpile but to use the information to figure out the places where the demand is highest and find out statistics on where the peace-fighters might be strongest.

I would guess, if this is true, he came to a stark realization that 85% of the country is buying ammo! I wonder how that felt?
Maybe that’s when he made the decision to instruct DHS to purchase a few thousand LAV's????

Do you have any evidence to support this theory? Are the factories indeed being powered, or going to be powered down?
Wouldn't that displace a certain amount of workers? Who are these people that aren't working in bullet making factories any more, can we get any evidence?
