"One area where Cheney's votes are noteworthy is gun control. Cheney was one of only 21 House members to oppose a 1985 proposal to ban the manufacture and import of armor piercing bullets, a measure that even the National Rifle Association did not oppose."

"Cheney "was one of just 21 members of Congress in December of 1985 to vote against a ban on armor-piercing bullets, called 'cop-killer' bullets. Three years later, he was one of only four members of the House voting against a ban on plastic guns that could slip through airport security machines undetected. The NRA did not oppose this ban" (CNN Newstand Live, July 24, 2000)."
