Obama Administration Abandons Plan To Ban Armor-Piercing Ammunition

3. A better solution would be to ban

SBR's, or AR 'pistols'. M855 isn't the only 5.56 NATO that will go through a vest, it's just the one that qualified under the 1994 law (being specifically designed to penetrate) and also, 'fireable' from a 'pistol'.

(From a rifle, all these rifle rounds will go through a IIa or III vest, armor piercing or not.)



Plenty of individual weapons or weapon configurations have been banned over the years and those bans have passed constitutional muster. This is not a 'common' firearm at all, especially compared to the AR-15 itself.
