Assuming micro-stamping is possible, feasible, and workable, the fact that for every major mass manufacturing process to be successful the major parts of any machine have to be interchangeable. That alone will negate any benefit/value/evidence the Government thinks it is going to get out of this law.
think about it: swap a barrel, slide or firing pin and you have a different number or a work around for the number. Pick up brass from a range and reload it the you have the potential for cases with two or more numbers from different guns loaded in a magazine. Then you have remanufactured ammo companies who buy and use once fired brass. The potential for having micro stamped brass from other communist states showing up in the PRNY will drive the “authoritarians” crazy.
