I don't know. The R.I.P. like another gimmicky P.O.S. to me. I think I'll just stick with HSTs. When I can find them.

If Adolf Hitler relocated to Brazil and called himself "Adolf Liepzig," then I've got some questions about this whole "Master Race" thing.

Excellent! Just what I was thinking!

Taste the .45cal ACP Rainbow; find the Black Talon...

If I understand it correctly (and I think I do), an armor piercing bullet has a very hard, non-deformable tip so that it can better penetrate armor.

Nope.

Small arms AP has a core of a hard metal, such as steel or tungsten, rather than relatively soft lead.

Additionally, 18 USC § 921 defines "armor piercing" ammuntion as:

"(i) a projectile or projectile core which may be used in a handgun and which is constructed entirely (excluding the presence of traces of other substances) from one or a combination of tungsten alloys, steel, iron, brass, bronze, beryllium copper, or depleted uranium; or

(ii) a full jacketed projectile larger than .22 caliber designed and intended for use in a handgun and whose jacket has a weight of more than 25 percent of the total weight of the projectile."

It has nothing to do with the "tip".

Expensive, too. I can imagine a selling price of $2/round or more.
