Military grade AR 15 bullets?

Seems there is a effort by the Obama administration to ban armor piercing bullets. The armor they have in mind to protect from piercing is police issue bullet proof vests.

Back during the bad old days in Vietnam....45 and more years ago... M16's shot Nato approved jacketed bullets and the Commies shot whatever they had... which likely was also in line with the "rules of war", which, in thinking about war and rules, is an oxymoron in itself. And...... back in the day....... an M16 bullet would go through an issue flack jacket without much difficulty at relatively close range. Now days, the protective vests are better and protect better. So instead of this crazy ban thing...maybe make a better vest... or hire real men, who expect to take their chances, like they used to, when they signed on to be cops.

"This is not a gun grab; it’s a proposed rule change to protect the lives and safety of law enforcement officers."

No, it isn't a gun grab, it is an ammunition grab. This is just the first, and when this ammo is banned,
then they move on to the next type of ammo.....and on and on. So when you can't get the ammo, you can't
shoot your guns.
See, we didn't take your guns, we just made it so you can't shoot them. Every little step the gun-banners
take leads to their ultimate goal..........we don't have any guns. And according to them, that's when
we will all be safe. I sure hope somebody tells the criminals who still have the guns.
I am really getting tired of this shit.

Peace is that brief, quiet moment in history.......... when everybody stands around reloading.
