DHS needs 7,000 Evil AR-15 Assault Weapons with high capacity 30 Round Magazines for ‘Personal Defense’ but the president says you don’t need them.
Washington DC – -(Ammoland.com)- According to New York state Senator Greg Ball (R), the Department of Homeland Security is seeking 7,000 self-defense weapons–all of which are AR-15 variants.
These are the very weapons Sens. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), Chuck Schumer (D-NY), and Joe Manchin (D-WV), have been telling us nobody needs for self-defense. Apparently, DHS disagrees.
As I wrote on January 14th, a “Personal Defense Weapons Solicitation” was circulated within DHS describing an AR-15 variant as “suitable for personal defense.” Now, 7,000 such weapons are being sought.
DHS is also seeking 30 round magazines for use with all the rifles.
