There was a thread recently regarding how the anti's were unusually quiet. To borrow a Liberal's recent comparison of Eric Holder, the Anti-gunners as a whole are ducks. If they aren't busy flapping and quacking, you'll have a few pecking at you while the rest appear calm in the water. But be sure that they're always working.
Three congressmen were behind a move in 2012 regarding armor-piercing rounds. They obviously weren't alone in this move, just the most visible. Simply because actors change or small movements are defeated, don't think for a minute that their fight is over.
Below is a quote from the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence from 2012. (http://smartgunlaws.org/federal-law-on-ammunition-regulation/)
It's not just about a poor performing M855/SS109 round, that's just an inching forward for them. Then again, many of us have known that all along.

The federal definition of armor-piercing ammunition, which is based on its content and weight, rather than on the ammunition’s actual performance against body armor, has been criticized because it fails to halt the manufacture and sale of all types of ammunition that can penetrate body armor[/B].17
The existing ban on armor-piercing ammunition can be made more effective by adopting performance standards that require ammunition to be tested for its ability to penetrate bullet-resistant vests and body armor, as opposed to the existing standard based on the bullet’s content.18
