That is right. Some Dems want to ban a handgun made by FN that shoots a 6.5mm round. They claim that FN has an ad touting the ability for the bullet to pierce body armor and encouraging criminals to buy the pistol. I found the referenced ad. What a lie. The ad was in professional Law Enforcement and Soldier Journals aimed at Defense and Law Enforcement officials. The ad also points out that the armor piercing 6.5mm round is for government/law enforcement only and a civilian nonarmor piercing round is available for consumers. Yet the MSM reports the lie without reviewing the nuances of the ad.

Um, the round is the 5.7x28, not the 6.5.

I've seen that too, funny how they will not tell the populace how a hypodermic or knitting needle at close range can do the same thing...plenty of officers get pricked when they arrest Heroin users...Being shot and living is one thing, being stuck with a needle and living with Hepatitis or HIV is another...
