Saw an advertisement for steel core 8mm milsurp ammo. If its steel core then isn't it armor piercing and thus illegal to import? I would love to get my hands on this stuff, it just surprised me to see it available. What are the laws on armor piercing ammo?

The "AP" ban applies to handgun ammo.. Just make sure you don't go making that K98k into a pistol..

This stuff German Ss ball, or just some other surplus stuff?

The ad said "Euro manufactured 8mm 156gr(?) steel core surplus ammunition"
