Anyone who has an AK74 is now screwed. Russian ammo like Silver Bear and Wolf are steel core and armor piercing. Looks like I will have to re-barrel my AK. I am not happy to hear this.

It looks like a lot of us are about to become outlaws.

Let’s not panic yet! Spier has about as much chance of getting this legislation to go anywhere as Hank Johnson does his anti-Guam is going to Tip Over Bill. With Spier, it’s just a shame that Jim Jones shooters weren’t good enough. She’s the leftover trash.

Almost any fully jacketed rifle round will penetrate soft police body armor.

"Russian ammo like Silver Bear and Wolf"
Can't we get Putin to fix this?

Russian ammo like Silver Bear and Wolf are steel core I believe you are confusing the steel case with a steel core.

Only re-barrel it after you have shot it out by giving back your ammo, one bullet at a time.

Just about any rifle round will go thru soft body armor.

This reflects what the administration is most afraid of, an armed citizenry.
Which in turn shows clearly what they feel guilty about.
If they governed in the interest of the American people they would have no reason to fear farmers with rifles.

the commies will just define armour as “human skin” and ban all ammo.
next, armour piercing swords.

Another foolishly thought out proposal by a GFW?
The quality of armor and the armor piercing power of different types of ammunition are highly variable and ever changing.

How many police were killed with armor piercing bullets last year I wonder? I would guess zero. They’re prepping their battlefield. They know what’s coming eventually and they’re stacking the deck in their favor ahead of it.

I’ve already seen this movie. It’s the old KTW “cop killer bullet” crap, resurrected for a new audience. I guess they think Americans have become sufficiently stupidified and brainwashed for it to work.

As a friend once said, “If the government is so worried about a civil disturbance, they are the trying so hard to disturb us?”
