the more I think about this the stupider it gets. how will the stamping effect reloaders? If they collect brass from a range, will the casing have multiple stamps from multiple firings?
Damn you california.... you're a beautiful state with insane laws.
Easily solved with a few passes of your favorite abrasive. Nothing like a finely polished firing pin...
Here is an easy way to bypass this: buy a new complete slide for the gun. It is completely unregulated as the ATF considers the lower frame to be the "gun."
So even if microstamping were done all a criminal has to do is use a different slide for the crime being committed and replace that slide while he is not actively committing crimes. If they find him, and he has the other slide that has not been used in a crime, they can't tie him to the crime and he goes free. Actually, I think this makes it easier for a criminal to get away with a crime.
Coming soon...
Remember to pick up each piece of brass at the range...
Not much different than swapping barrels in handguns so LEO can't get a ballistics match to a crime scene.
While true, the police will likely use this microstamping as a crutch.

So , for this to work , a gangbanger/criminal/maniac/etc goes into a gun shop and legally buys a new firearm, or get it through a straw purchase from a legal buyer at the FFL.
Then if he commits an illegal shooting the police can look up the number on the brass , drive to his house and question him about his whereabouts on the day of the crime.
Sounds great.
Except if he steals the gun , or puts a new pin in it , or files it , or uses a revolver , or polices his brass , or shoots from inside a car . or intends to do the typical mass murder suicide by cop routine , or doesn't buy a new gun but gets an older one , or gets a gun from out of state , or doesn't care if his name is attached to the brass for any one of a million reasons. or simply has a good alibi and says " I'm not arguing about the number connected to my name. It doesn't prove I was there. "
Otherwise , I just think it may be a hugely expensive waste of resources. Has the stupid "fired brass casing with every new gun " thing we run here in Ma. ever solved a single crime ever ?
All technical analysis of this tech has shown it to be broken.I don't see how brass could be micro-stamped unless there is some kind of new technology. This leaves the primer. But that can't be it either. What about Glock firing pin "smears"? What does make sense is that they are "shooting" for de-facto gun control through attrition. I myself have seen guns that were older than ten years, so even that smug liberal wet-dream won't work either. Maybe it'll be like gun locks. Whenj you buy a firearm, you are, at state's cost, required to buy a striking implement and a punch. After firing each shot, you'd be required to imprint the case. Percentage wise, I can now give Mr. Miculek a run for his money
I'd pay double to get to design my own micro stamp so many penis marks on my ammo.
