this is a very misleading story. they can see the outhline of your tennis shoes, they can make out a gun's profile, as long as the screeners are awake and on their correct meds.

Luckily, it had plastic low density rounds loaded in it as well... They're FOC!

What's with the red highlighting? They got the company wrong. But Carbon 15 pistols do shoot .223 ammo, they do shoot it at a high enough velocity to penetrate a level IIIA (the highest that most cops wear) vest, and that is the same caliber that the army uses.

I am very wary of all the whoop-de-doo being made of any caliber that can penetrate body armor. I have seen Ted Kennedy do this on the Senate floor as part of his pitch to ban .30-30. The gun grabbers and the media are working to implant the idea in the uninformed public's mind that a firearm able to penetrate body armor is a rare and extremely high power weapon that should be banned.

They said the same thing about Glocks, and a lot of nutty cops and fake "security experts" got their time on TV saying the same stuff this anti-gun weirdo is saying. Needless so say, the Schumers of the world will now kill hundreds of people by running over them in the stampede to the TV cameras.
The security is better lately, but I once passed through a checkpoint at Reagan-National where the woman was chatting with a friend and had her back to the screen. I could have smuggled a Thompson SMG past her.

I don't see how only the barrel could be visible. What about the bolt? All the springs? The magazine? Even the ammo.
