Ammo ban
Jed alerts me to the latest Cop Killer Legislation. The bill states is purpose is to ban the already banned SS190 ammo for the FN FiveseveN. But the wording leaves it open to ban all ammunition that might pierce armor if there’s a possibility that it can be chambered in a handgun. That’s rather silly since there are entire lines of pistols (like the Thompson Center) that are made to shoot rifle rounds for handgun hunting season.

There’s also the question of .45ACP carbines that can pierce body armor with the higher velocities you get from rifles. I know that my 3A vest that will handle a .45 won’t handle it coming out of a 20″ barrel.
