The feds recently used an obscure “vaporware” Polish firearm as an excuse to outlaw the importation of cheap and plentiful Russian ammo into the United States.
The BATFE has determined the 7N6 cartridge is armor piercing and therefore illegal under the Gun Control Act (GCA) of 1968 as amended in 1986.
As noted by The Bangswitch blog on Tuesday, the Russian ammo was not an issue with the federal government until the suspicious introduction of a 5.45×39 handgun on the U.S. market.
“Until one did appear, 7N6 surplus could flow freely from Russia, Ukraine and other sources. However, it would only be a matter of time before someone got the bright idea to produce a 5.45×39 pistol domestically or someone applied for a Form 6 to import one,” the blog reports.

Huh?
Off the meds?
How are we going to shoot deer that are wearing body armor if we can't have armor piercing ammo?
5.45 sidearm is legit. Three of my favorites, in my collection. Too bad I have more rounds than they do.
The ZOMBIE's have thick skin and skulls. We will need the armor piercing ammo to effectively deter the govt. mercenar... I mean zombie walkers.
Since the pot importing business seems to be heading toward lower profits perhaps this will become the new product to import.
