"California's Unsafe Handguns Act, which bans new semiautomatic handguns that do not stamp identifying information on the cartridge when a bullet is fired, is constitutional, a federal judge ruled."
"The Unsafe Handguns Act prohibits the manufacture or sale of any gun that does not meet certain safety requirements. The California Department of Justice keeps a roster of tested revolvers or semiautomatic pistols that have been deemed not to be unsafe."
"The purpose of the law is to reduce crime by reducing the sale of cheap handguns, ensuring that handguns fire when they are supposed to and do not fire when dropped.'" ... |

One of the worst hand gun laws was that prohibiting "Saturday nite specials". The (unintended?) consequence was criminals soon had reliable weapons. Seems like cA is way "behind the curve" on this one !
The "upside" of this decision - if true/factual - is it conflicts with federal law/standards on multiple levels. The obvious case is to contend how "micro-stamping" - an unproven/untried technology - renders a firearm already meeting industry and federal standards for safety and performance is rendered "unsafe" by lacking an unproven modification. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Gentlemen may cry, 'peace, peace'—but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! Is life so precious, or peace so dear, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death! — Patrick Henry to the Virginia Convention on March 23, 1775. |
