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.

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.

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.

"Russian ammo like Silver Bear and Wolf"

Can't we get Putin to fix this?

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.

Virtually all rifle rounds will penetrate IIIa armor, steel-core or otherwise.

You couldn't. Level 3A is not rated to stop rifle rounds.

This will never pass anyways so I'm not going to waste anymore Internet on it.
