That is the question.
Rapper Yung Joc was arrested for having a loaded handgun in his carry-on luggage (shock, yes I know). He then is released on bail and decides to skip his court appearance. Prosecutors are stating that he also had AP ammo.
""He is alleged to have taken a loaded firearm with 20 rounds of ammunition into the airport. It is also alleged that some of the ammunition in his possession was armor piercing."
Apparently he had a CCW license from somewhere or at least claimed to have one so this is looking like a case of stupidity that he is domino-ing by not showing at his hearing. If he had actual AP ammo, he's screwed.

20 rounds of ammo? Sounds like an FN Five-seveN to me.
If it was an FN FiveSeven then the ammo he had was most likely not AP ammo. The media has a way of "hyping" the BS based on conjecture and rumors around a particular handgun caliber. In this case the FiveSeven being hyped as having AP ammo. The facts being that the AP ammo is not available to civilians and as far as I know has never been available for sale in the US to civilians. The ammo which is currently available is not AP ammo period! At least no more so than all the other calibers currently available to civilians. Just another example of liberal anti-gun bias in the media as usual. Yung Joc should have just showed up at the courthouse and explained the situation and accept the consequences of his "mistake". You got to make sure to declare the weapon and have it unloaded and locked in it's case if you want to have it at your destination. You can have a firearm flown with your checked luggage. You must retain the key to the lock on the gun case in most cases. Also the firearm in it's locked case will need to be inside a locked piece of luggage and then located in an area of the plane inaccessible by the passengers during flight(the airline will attend to this however). To be sure of the rules you should check with the airline you intend to fly with prior to your flight. Surprisingly not real difficult if you follow a few simple procedures.
