Handgun Microstamping bill - Not Ammo related

[10X 3,296]

Won't happen. Their orig idea where the serial number would be on the firing pin and be stamped into each primer was proven to be not possible if I recall. But of course, those arse holes wont believe that.

Glocks do it. But the serial number is always "1"

Microstamping is California's equivalent to our Smart Gun bill. It has been passed, but not in force yet. Not sure what the reason for that is in CA. There is only one company that holds the patents on the microstamping process. It may be that CA's legislature has not funded the bureaucracy that such a database will require, so it's on hold in the meantime. S&W and Ruger have already stated that they will not sell any more semi-autos in CA once it takes effect.

 

Adios,

Excuse my naivete, but what happens when you have to change the firing pin?

Who knows? Ask a politician, they seem to have all the answers even though they haven't figured out the questions yet.

I assume a Background check to sell firing pins

If microstamping comes about it will be the last day I shoot without a brass catcher. Can you imagine someone just picking up your empty casings and sprinkling them at a crime scene? What a ludicrous law.

You must destroy the firearm and purchase a new one (with a background check). 

 

(I'm joking, but I bet there''s a bunch of legislators that had that thought).

I see myself working on improving my skills with a file and sandpaper instead.

Get a jewelers' vise and some metal working files, make one.

"Your Honor, when the defendant's handgun was impounded after his supposed "defensive" shooting which resulted in a homicide, the firearms inspection unit determined that the firing pin had been illegally modified to remove the state-mandated microstamp, which is a felony violation."

LOL!!

That's good, but I was thinking along the lines of making a new one out of steel stock as opposed to modifying the original. But I guess the same issue would apply.

All my firing pins are routinely changed out to avoid pierced primers from worn firing pins.

Your firearms must see some serious use if you "ROUTINELY" change your firing pins LOL

[leadunderpressure 52]

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Wild, nice to see another who tinkers. Thanx!

[leadunderpressure 52]

I've never done that but I suspect with the proper heat treatment it's a viable process.

Personally, as long as the gun still works 100%, I'd rather have this nonsense than the "smart gun" nonsense. ...then again, I'd rather have no nonsense than this nonsense, so I guess the point is moot. lol
