Sounds like they intend to make an example out of someone. Reminicent of the mid 90's.

Much to do about nothing. The request for quote indicates that the shotguns shall be "authorized for IRS duty based on compatibility with IRS existing shotgun inventory."

This means they already have shotguns. This was linked on Drudge, looks like he is just stirring the pot.
