[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 881416, member: 1132"] If you consider that he killed 13 out of 100 rounds fired, it wasn't a very effective ratio. The 5.7 isn't a "Cop Killer" and they damn well know it. 5.7 AP ammo sales are restricted and I'm pretty sure the post shooting report will show that he had sporting rounds. That the 5.7 did as much damage as it did in this case will owe a lot to the fact that these were soldiers in a temperate climate. Not much clothing and less body mass than your average American to penetrate to the vitals. Don't take this the wrong way, but we're lucky he was a REMF with a pipsqueak round. Had it been a SF or Marine with a heavier caliber, the death toll might have been a lot higher. :( [/QUOTE]
