Impending “Armor-Piercing” Ammo Ban Bill Undermines Argument to Ban “Green Tip” Rounds
The Coalition to Stop Gun Violence called it a “[v]ery disappointing decision”–language echoed by House Democrats, who added their contention that it is within BATFE Director B. Todd Jones’ “existing authority” to go ahead with such bans. Congressman Eliot Engel, (D-NY) was in particularly high dudgeon:
“Armor piercing rounds like green tips should only be in the hands of military personnel or police officers, period. There is absolutely no compelling argument to be made for anyone else to have access to them,” Congressman Engel said. “But the out of touch gun industry lobby is fighting tooth and nail to keep cop-killing ammunition [which seems not, in nearly 30 years, succeeded in killing a single cop] on the streets. We need to speak up on behalf of our police officers and say ‘stop the madness.'”
Engel introduced his bill to ban “armor piercing” ammunition last week, with H.R. 1358, the “Armor-Piercing Bullets Act.” From the text of the bill, the intent seems to be to grant the BATFE the authority to do just want that agency wanted to, with the proposed M855 ban. The obvious question here would be, “If the BATFE already, as House Democrats claim, has statutory authority to implement such bans, why would Engel feel the need to introduce legislation granting that authority”? Engel also indicated that he would soon be once again introducing his perennial attempt to ban the FN Five-seveN and its ammo–another “cop-killer” with little if any history of “cop-killing” in the U.S.
FK – Are we to assume that all these commies are representing that much support for this evil in their home districts or are they under orders from other places? Those are the questions that matter.

GOA Alert: Senate to Vote Next Week on Concealed Carry Reciprocity and other Gun Amendments
— Sen. Crapo moves to ‘Choke’ Operation Choke Point
Next week, there will be more gun votes on the floor of the United States Senate than there will be for the rest of the year put together.
The Senate will vote on an amendment by Senator Mike Crapo (R-ID) on whether to eliminate the Operation Choke Point program — designed by the Obama administration to squeeze the financial life out of the firearms industry.
In addition, the Senate is expected to vote on whether or not to implement national concealed carry reciprocity. It could vote on whether ATF’s ban on AR-15 ammunition should be permanently prohibited. It could vote on whether to make it illegal for the Senate to push semi-auto or magazine bans — or universal gun registries.
The vehicle will be the Concurrent Budget Resolution. And it’s perhaps the only time when senators can — and do — offer amendments on ANYTHING THEY WANT. And they offer hundreds of amendments.
But — and this is an important “but” — despite the fact that there will be hundreds of amendments, these votes will freeze senators into a “pro-gun” or “anti-gun” position. And, when reciprocity or Choke Point come up again in two or three months, senators will find it almost impossible to shift from the positions they will take on the Budget Resolution next week.
