"Its not that big of a problem for me but its obviously not causing armor ignore"

Any actual proof of this? You could very well just not be noticed the actual Armor Piercing damage.

"I understand u bro, even i don't get the Armor ignore and armor piercing mechanics. The Problem with us guys is we try to think logically."

It's extremely easy to understand, and I am extremely logical as well. I'll break it down into pieces (hopefully I do not leave anything out, because I am rushing):

Damage is affected by 2 things: damage multipliers and armor.

'Types' of damage multipliers:
 * Damage type related (e.g. Armor Piercing does 0.5x to light Infested)
 * Body part related (e.g. all headshots do 2x to Corpus Crewmen)

Armor: That's about it. Armor Piercing is a type of 'armor ignoring' damage that has some damage multipliers.
 * Each enemy has a list of damage types that ignores their armor.
 * Generally it's Armor Piercing, Poison, Serrated Blade and Physics Impact
 * Some body parts have no armor at all (unprotected body part)
