The U.S. Department of Agriculture is soliciting bids for submachine guns and body armor.
Initial reports showed that the USDA is seeking guns that have an “ambidextrous safety, semiautomatic or 2 round [bursts] trigger group, Tritium night sights front and rear, rails for attachment of flashlight (front under fore group) and scope (top rear), stock collapsible or folding,” and a “30 rd. capacity” magazine.
The agency’s paper said that they wanted interested vendors to submit their name and contact information “in a timely manner.”
The document was later revised to say the USDA also wants to obtain a “”tactical vest, undergarment (white), identification patches, accessories (6 pouches), body armor carry bag, and professional measurements.”
There was no explanation why the USDA is seeking to obtain military level weapons and body armor.
