Lots of different Rifles including M-16, AR-15 and AK's can penetrate body armor - not to mention hunting Rifle's like Weatherby's - so a "cop-killer bullet" ban would *never* affect these types of guns since it's not Vyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04525361990361769626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496870.post-30879558932746321792009-04-11T15:27:00.000-07:002009-04-11T15:27:00.000-07:00Body Armor come in various levels of effectiveness...Body Armor come in various levels of effectiveness and thickness, some are hardly effective at all - in general I think it's a moot point. ALL WEAPONS and ALL BULLETS are not going to be banned, and Heller essentially guarantees this for the forseeable future. All anyone can do is political posturing around the margins, calm down and stop worrying about it.<BR/><BR/>VyanVyanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04525361990361769626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8496870.post-29267204282437760912009-04-11T07:26:00.000-07:002009-04-11T07:26:00.000-07:00Vyan:You obviously aren't aware that almost any ri...Vyan:<BR/>You obviously aren't aware that almost any rifle cartridge more pwerful than a .22 Long Rifle is capable of penetrating soft body armor, regardless of its bullet materials and construction.. Therefore, what Schumer was pushing was an effective ban on almost every rifle cartridge used for hunting and long-range target shooting.
