Senator Jim Battin Senator Gilbert Cedillo Senator Ellen Corbett Senator Robert Dutton Senator Dean Florez Senator Sheila Kuehl Senator Jenny Oropeza Senator Mark Ridley-Thomas Senator George Runner Senator Joe Simitian Senator Darrell Steinberg Senator Mark Wyland Senator Leland Yee
AB1471 would require that after a certain date, the make, model, and serial number be microstamped onto the interior surface or internal working parts of all handguns in such a manner that those identifiers are imprinted onto the cartridge case upon firing. Under AB1471, the manufacture, sale, and transfer of handguns that do not include their identifying information would be a crime.
Please contact the members of the Senate Appropriations Committee today and respectfully urge them to oppose AB1471.
