A bill (SB 357 [love the bill number.... ]) that amounts to a ban on handgun ammunition is on the move in the PRK Legislature.
Serialization requires each box of cartridges to have its own serial number. Matching numbers would then be engraved inside cases and on the bases of bullets. When a box of ammunition is sold, the serial number would be registered to the buyer. Then, presumably, at a crime scene, police would be able to match bullets or cases with an alleged purchaser.
Reasons this is not possible or practical are listed here: http://www.nssf.org/share/PR/042505.cfm?wTPL=x&print=N and at http://www.saami.org/ .
It is likely, should this bill pass, that the ammo manufacturers will ABANDON PRK and refuse to make a product for PRK.
Could this be the straw that breaks the camel's back?
