Looks like I will have to re-barrel my AK. I am not happy to hear this.

If this legislation passed you would have to shoot wad cutters out of your AK.

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

As will 7.62x25 (.30 Tokarev) pistol ammo.

JG Sales has Romanian TTC 33 pistols for $219. Ammo - don't know...

Correct. Most 5.56 and .223 out there can penetrate level III. However, to make it a point, when there’s ammo out there like XM855 available for purchase by consumers in addition to 5.45x39, rest assured those will be the first targeted by the politicians to be outlawed.

Does anyone know if a 12 guage deer sabot will penetrate body armor?
