I wonder just who they're buying it for (if the plan is to distribute it) or if they're storing it to create a shortage. Weaponized IRS has just taken on a new meaning. I don't know about the legalities of this, but it seems like a rather suspicious purchase for a tax collecting organization.

Did they happen to mention what their intention was for arming agents in the first place?
IIRC, it was right when Obama was doing all those mass shootings, then someone not them set off a bomb at a federal building, shocked them, so they started arming agents to defend federal buildings and the IRS in general.
In addition, I seem to recall there was a scare or shooting or something with several on-duty agents, someone got hurt (I'm remembering they were punched, knocked out or something?).
