Well, just lower the maximum number of bins in other stockpiles and you've done.

You don't create "ammo bins" or "armor bins" etc. you just create bins which will be stored in the funiture stockpile. If a bin is then moved to a stockpile and an item is put inside the name of the bin will change to "<itemtype> bin" (and back to "bin" if all items are removed).

You can either deny any bins to stockpiles you don't want to contain bins at the moment ("q" over the stockpile and change the allowed bins to "0") or you can produce bin after bin until you have enough (which is what i usually do).
