[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 1870421, member: 18914"] What SMS has hinted at, without actually explaining, is that the contracts mentioned "Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity" (IDIQ) are long term contracts with open ended delivery amounts - generally written for needs such as consumable supplies...like bullets for a security agency. Often used when an agency knows they'll need some amount over a baseline minimum but do not know exactly how much above the baseline. SMS is pointing out that the amounts cited are probably not actual orders but rather contract caps or something like that. I think DHS still bears watching - as does any domestic security agency - but the ammo amounts cited shouldn't be a big factor behind that. I just noticed that dalesp has already posted basically the same info and assessment - my apologies for the double post [/QUOTE]
