TSA To Purchase 3.5 Million Rounds Of Ammunition

Enough for its agents to fire 9,400 bullets a day, every day of the year

The Transportation Security Administration is set to purchase 3.5 million .357 SIG caliber bullets, enough for its agents to fire 9,400 rounds a day, every day of the year.

According to a solicitation issued by the agency on August 16, the TSA is looking to buy “3,454,000 rounds of .347 SIG Caliber Training Ammunition”.

Although TSA agents in airports are currently unarmed, last month the TSA announced its plan to hire the use of a firing range within a 20 mile radius of LaGuardia Airport in order to train TSA workers.

  4. It's .357 and its to keep it out of citizens hands. The government has also recently purchased AK 47's which they don't use as well as AK mags
