Its all nonsense anyway since mild steel was used as a cost-cutting measure rather than as a penetration enhancer. The bullets dont penetrate any better than lead core projectiles.
The truth is that the real blow to the 2nd came in 68 with the banning of destructive devices and the regulation of explosives ownership. Defeating personal armor is orders of magnitude easier than destroying armored vehicles. Indirect fire (both in the sense of mortars and of IEDs) is orders of magnitude more effective in an insurrection than direct fire.
