Why the model tagged it this way: The bill repeals an existing subdivision on armor-piercing ammunition in 265.01 and adds new felony provisions for its possession (as a class B felony alongside possessing 10+ firearms) and for its unlawful sale/exchange/giving/disposal (as a class B felony alongside selling 3+ firearms in a year). These changes impose new criminal penalties that restrict access to and transfer of armor-piercing ammunition, a firearm accessory.
