S&W, propose an alternative and simpler way of identifying the bullet, not the shell casing: Supply the barrel pattern of each gun manufactured. This does not require changes to the gun.

Is is very easy to collect shell casing at a shooting club (with different microstampings). You use the gun and spread 15 or 20 shell casings all around. Get a good lawyer that requires the matching of each case with the bullets fired ( this is all most impossible to do ) and you are free to go.

CIS persons get smart. This can take your job away. No need for your lab processing .

Apparently, some local governments think it is a good idea, notwithstanding the whining. Hoyt Jan 2014 #36

You mean 'notwithstanding the complete ineffectiveness as a law enforcement tool'? AtheistCrusader Jan 2014 #38
