Does anyone have any personal knowledge or an estimate of this?
Several threads here have dealt with rounds that penetrate body armor, but is this really an important consideration for the military and police?
Were the Iraqis and Afghanis using body armor at all?
The only criminals I can immediately recall using armor was the pair in California who robbed the bank and then shot it out with fully automatic AK's.
If our own police and military are the only ones using armor consistently, then it would seem that further development of armor piercing ammo might really be detrimental to the good guys.
