I found a box of metal peircing ammo online, it says on the box that is is for law enforcment use, but it is an old box. I was wondering about a civilian having that in michigan. Any ideas as to the legality of this?
Huh? All ammo can pierce metal.
black talon...

Metal is a vague term. It could mean anything from the side of a soda can to the side of an Abrams tank. The type of metal and the thickness of the metal weren't mentioned, so "metal piercing" means nothing. My finger can easily pierce tin foil, and that's metal. So my finger is metal piercing, but that doesn't make it armor piercing.If that were the case I would expect that out indoor range backstop would be peppered with holes.
Depends on your state laws, but I highly doubt that means anything. It's the manufacturer's way to cover their a**es from lawsuits.the only legal thing i was worried about is it says "for law enforcement only" use on the box.

This ammo was never considered AP ammo.
All my mosin ammo is steel core and will pierce body armor.. hope the ATF isn't looking at this
Just a clarification. Body armor is not a standard unit of measure when talking about 'armor-piercing' ammo. Many non-armor-piercing rounds will penetrate body armor, handgun and rifle
