My worry: we will be assured the law is fine, no problem, won't affect our "sporting" ammo.

Then some DA will sue somebody for having some standard surplus ball ammo. He'll test fire some through a kevlar vest. "A-HA! GOTCHA!"

Compliant judges and gullible juries will agree: the "armor piercing" ammo falls under the law. Off to jail! Ban the "cop killer" rifle bullets!

The pols and the elite a$$holes want badly to hurry forward their agenda, but they're scared.

Ya, they want all the guns, any way they can get them.

I found out a long time ago that 125 gr. soft point hunting ammo will easily pass through a 1/4" thick steel plate of cold rolled, at over two hundred yards!
This from an "obsolete" .303 British Enfield.

Virtually every center-fire soft point hunting cartridge on the market would be "armor-piercing" if evaluated only on the basis of it's ability to penetrate most types of "soft" armor, and many types of "hard" armor as well!
