[QUOTE="Pokinfun, post: 3079286, member: 28113"] This article says he sold the shooter armor piercing bullets and 720 rounds of tracers. It does not say the tracers were illegal. he was arrested for not having a license to manufacture armor-piercing bullets. I'm not sure what they mean by "modified" the bullet to make it armor-piercing. I am guessing they are saying he reloaded a regular case with a ss109 or m855 bullet. My question would be, did it make any difference if it was a lead core FMJ bullet or some sort of armor-piercing bullet. The only reason I say that is, I think if he did something illegal that caused the death of someone else is one thing, but merely selling a reload that he was unlicensed to sell is something else. I would say that the media coverage is an attempt to continue Obama's 2015 effort to make some types of bullets illegal.
