CA Bullet-Microstamping Law Upheld By 9th Circuit, Even Though Technology Doesn't Exist

[CorpsVet]

Leading, gradually, to no new guns for sale, which is, IMO, the intent of the law.

Hey, can you post a link to where we can get one of them star trek transporter things? I'm skeered of flying and want to go on vacation.

Be careful, I heard Microsoft was the one coding the software to disassemble you and put you back together.

Lol, that's scarier than microstamping...

Yeah, you won't know if you'll come out on the other side missing appendages or will have adware installed in your brain.

If you own a new Glock with a 3D marked barrel, it's already in the 3D database. Bullets can be traced to that serialized 3D marked weapon.

Creepy $#!T right there my friends!

Not if the weapon is never used for nefarious purposes.

Very interesting link. There may be folks on death row right now because of flawed forensics.

Gun manufacturers are just going to stop sending any more guns to CA.

No they won’t. They will just redesign new platforms to meet the laws and then sell them at a higher price than you and I pay for non compliant firearms.
They do this already with the AR platform.

They do this already with several platforms, and yes they are more expensive. Go browse academy, you'll see several firearms with CA after the model to indicate they are CA rated and yes, they are more expensive.

That’s what Barrett did. I don’t think his company is suffering.
