Every story has one thing missing. That is any rifle bullet made will pierce almost all body armor.

 

[KevinThomas]

I'm sure that's exactly the tag line they were hoping for; being able to ban anything that will penetrate soft body armor, which extends to pretty much any rifle ammo on the market.

Never ever think that this will not eventually be a success for Obama and the other gun grabbers.

After the dust settles the bullet/ammo will be banned.

Very true. The ban was no accident or mistake. Those who think it was or a rouge agent are fools.

And I hope all the retards that, again, paid inflated prices for junk ammo loose their asses trying to unload it on gunbroker. Dumbasses

I think we all know that the entitlement state allows a certain anti 2nd amendment type get into power. I for one get excited for every little battle won..

A fishing expedition on their part.

Probing the line just to test our reaction.

And now the waiting starts for the next attempt. Never think for a moment that this is over. People like Obama cannot handle rejection or loss.

 

[sbhooper]

They will be back. They got publicly beat down and will try to do it in secret next time. Things are not good.

That was fast.

Rep. Engel to Introduce The Armor Piercing Bullets (APB) Act

Rep. Engel to Introduce The Armor Piercing Bullets (APB) Act



Bill would enact into law regulations to protect law enforcement dropped by ATF



Washington, D.C. – Congressman Eliot Engel (NY-16)will introduce legislation tomorrow to ensure only military and law enforcement are permitted to use armor piercing bullets.

“Armor piercing rounds like green tips should only be in the hands of military personnel or police officers, period. There is absolutely no compelling argument to be made for anyone else to have access to them,” Congressman Engel said. "But the out of touch gun industry lobby is fighting tooth and nail to keep cop-killing ammunition on the streets. We need to speak up on behalf of our police officers and say ‘stop the madness.’”

The Armor Piercing Bullets (APB) Act would restrict the sale of small caliber, .223-derived, 5.56x45mm NATO “green tip” rounds, cartridges commonly used in AR-15 semi-automatic assault rifles that can penetrate the soft body armor often worn by police. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) proposed exactly these rule changes earlier this year. But they met with fierce opposition from gun industry lobbyists, and earlier this week they withdrew their proposal. The APB Act would enact these rules through legislation, eliminating any concern about administrative process.

“As the ATF rightly pointed out, these rounds can easily be loaded into concealed pistols and other short guns, making them particularly dangerous to police officers,” Engel noted. “The well-being of the men and women who protect us should not, and need not, be a partisan issue. I encourage all of my colleagues in Congress to support this obvious measure that will, if enacted, save lives.”

Congressman Engel is a senior member of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and a senior member of New York Congressional delegation.
