I know this story didn't get much press, but it leaked out.
President Obama asked the ATF to look into banning the sale of 5.56 ammunition to private citizens. They couldn't ban the manufacturing of 5.56 since it's the primary ammo used by the military, but by halting sales to private citizens it would render most AR-15s into 4 pound paperweights unfortuantly the story leaked out and the ATF annouced that it would be immpossible to enforce such a ban.
Just want to give that whistleblower a big

It was only the M855 the BATFe (and really big fires) that was trying to erroneously classify as an AP round, when the round doesn't even come close to being an AP round.
Once again the BS reasoning of safety being the justification of restricting citizens rights as if safety is somehow more important.

QUOTE On Feb. 13, 2015, ATF released for public comment a proposed framework, including legal and technical analysis, to guide its determination on what ammunition is “primarily intended for sporting purposes” for purposes of granting exemptions to the Gun Control Act’s prohibition on Armor Piecing Ammunition. This proposed framework is posted for public comment only; no final decisions have been made as to its adoption. Media reports have noted that the 2014 ATF Regulation Guide published online does not contain a listing of the exemptions for Armor Piercing Ammunition, and concluding that the absence of this listing indicates these exemptions have been rescinded. Please be advised that ATF has not rescinded any Armor Piercing Ammunition exemption, and the fact they are not listed in the 2014 online edition of the regulations, was an error, which has no legal impact on the validity of the exemptions. The existing exemptions for armor piercing ammunition, which apply to 5.56 mm (.223) SS 109 and M855 projectiles (identified by a green coating on the projectile tip), and the U.S .30-06 M2AP projectile (identified by a black coating on the projectile tip), remain in effect. The listing of Armor Piercing Ammunition exemptions can be found in the 2005 ATF Regulation Guide on page 166, which is posted here. The 2014 Regulation Guide will be corrected in PDF format to include the listing of Armor Piercing Ammunition exemptions and posted shortly. The e-book/iBook version of the Regulation Guide will be corrected in the near future. ATF apologizes for any confusion caused by this publishing error. http://www.atf.gov/sites...ror.pdf
ATF makes publishing error and RWNJ start screaming about Obama taking their ammo so they can't use their gun.
