ATF is trying to ban M855 ball ammunition. The 1986 police protection act banned armor piercing pistol ammo. Now with short barrel AR's being classified as pistols ATF is trying to reclassify M855 as armor piercing pistol ammo and ban it. Personally I have no use for M855 and could care less about it but this has nothing to do with ammo or the police protection act. This is an attack on the AR-15 and since they couldnt ban the gun they are trying to ban cheap ammo commonly used in it. I urge all of you to comment to ATF on this. Below are some links with more info and how to comment to ATF.
