Like most of this "most transparent administration", contentions this is another multilevel lie. BATF has yet to produce statistics/data substantiating the M855 "threat" to police body armor. It doesn't meet the USDOD or NATO definition of "armor piercing" construction. Nor are any of the 5.56mm "pistols" actions significantly "smaller" than their rifle counterparts due to mechanical limitations. But there is an undesirable impact from this proposed ban.
It would negatively impact the training programs of the nation's Police Departments (now armed with AR-type "assault weapons" by this administration) that purchase their training ammo in the same market as civilians. An "unintended consequence" ? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771 |
