Are armor-piercing bullets legal in South Dakota?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Yes, but only for law enforcement

  4. Yes, with special permissions

The correct answer is: No

Most states in the United States do not have a specific ban on armor-piercing ammunition, except for a few exceptions. However, in South Dakota, it is illegal to possess, manufacture, sell, or transfer armor-piercing bullets. Even for law enforcement officers, the use of armor-piercing ammunition is not allowed unless it is specifically authorized by the state. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect because armor-piercing bullets are not legal in South Dakota.
