California Microstamping Legislation Scheduled for Committee Hearing!

Wednesday, July 11, 2007

On Monday, July 16, Assembly Bill 1471 will be heard in the Senate Appropriations Committee. 

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.
