Have any of the concerned bloggerie phoned up Karen Kirkpatrick in Windsor CT and asked the number of rounds and the length of the order cycle? Because Post Office SWAT (“Surveyors,” Franklin called them) more-or-less predates the Articles of Confederation, and about 2 million rounds over 5 years would not be out of line for normal issue and practice standards, on a back-of-the-envelope computation, SWIDT.
You want a scandal? That SWAT team just popped the regional USPS facilities project manager for wire fraud, bribery, money laundering and conspiracy. In Windsor CT. Lazy post office, couldn’t even drive it over to Simsbury?
No, seriously, it very well may be that certain procurement practices in government ventures simply aren’t up to ammunition. Spazzed and spurious.

The Postal Inspection Service investigates and prosecutes mail theft and fraud, with about 1,500 Postal Inspectors, who are armed and serve Federal search warrants and make arrests.
There are 650 Postal Police as well, according to the UPIS website.
(I see no evidence of a SWAT team – but one does need ammunition to properly serve Federal warrants and make arrests, or guard installations or escort “high-value” mail shipments, quite legitimately.)
