The National Rifle Association (NRA) shortly countered the Brady Campaign's claim by stating that the gun control group may not have adhered to standard testing procedures, and that FN offers armor-piercing varieties of the 5.7×28mm cartridge only to military and law enforcement customers.
Udruga National Rifle Association (NRA) je uzvratila tvrdnji kampanje Brady navodeći da se grupa za kontrolu oružja možda nije pridržavala procedurama regularnog ispitivanja, te da FN samo nudi razne varijante oklopno-probijajućih metaka 5,7×28mm vojsci i kupcima iz zakonskih službi.
