Teflon filled polyurethane used in military and commercial aircraft painting, is used on leading edges and other surfaces. It is extremely impact resistant and this also translates to being an extreme barrier penetrant.
It's illegal to put that on bullets in some states. That should tell you something.
Do you honestly believe NBC or any other pathetic MSM anti gun spewing media is going to say "hey look kids, this stuff really works awesome on bullets, look what it does to Mr. Police mans' Kevlar!"
Of course it is going to be debunked.

SO I was partially right but that only matters in horseshoes and handgrenades.
You were not at all right as the information shows.

A SOFT teflon coating that inventor said. No corruption said if you used a HARDER VERSION with a diffrent make up that it can increase penetration though from what i understand. HE should know since he is a freaking engineer right?

I said the coating ON A Bullet made of another material than lead seemed to ad penetration.

Blah, blah, blah.
You: 'Hur-dee-dur, duh Teflon makes duh bullets hurts more.'
Wrong, it doesn't. I don't care what you changed it to after I told you otherwise, what you posted was wrong. The end.

...what's funny to me though is that they are saying that New York City is a "Hardship" location. IS that another hit for the "Progressive Cities Plan" or what?
'Hardship H', meaning it is lower down the scale than being stationed in a dangerous situation.

All that a hardship post is is one where you have to stay away from home of extended periods. So you get an additional accommodation allowance.
I think that all postings in Korea and Japan used to be considered hardship postings.

How about a site called GunNuts who also called this fiction?
Well, the first problem is that the rounds did actually work pretty well. Mind you, not because of the Teflon coating, but because a hardened brass/steel projectile is probably going to be pretty effective at going through stuff a soft lead bullet won’t go through.
very hard and PTFE filled polyester polyurethane epoxy coatings of today changes all of yesterday's fables into reality.
"intergalactic" (haha D)

So what? You asked for a non-MSM cite, you got one.
And there hasn't been any Teflon-like coatings used since then that have added penetrative powers.
