Ammo shortage forces Police use Airsoft to train!
http://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/20...e-train-with-airsoft-guns-amid-ammo-shortage/
You got to know the ammo shortage is so bad when the police are forced to train with Airsoft guns as a backup. This is the first I heard of an agency using Airsoft or any alternatives to conventional firearms and ammo. The agency is in the Bay area of Richmond.
I guess so much for the stories that the ammo shortage is easing up?
"RICHMOND (KPIX 5) — A nationwide shortage of ammunition has forced several police departments, including Richmond, to find a backup solution for training rounds. Officers said the solution is just as effective as live ammo, not to mention cheaper."
