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.

That number isn't manpower, just ammo - and purchased just within the past few months. If you scan through some of the other commentary here you'll see several anons brought up that Obama ordered agencies to stockpile ammo during his term purportedly because he was unable to do a gun grab. Also consider other points brought up here including the amount of ammo the IRS already has stockpiled (five million rounds three-and-a-half years ago, probably more by now). Whatever the normal expenditure on ammo to keep their armed agents trained-up, it apparently raised some red flags for Congressman Gaetz.
