In the NY State Senate, there's a bill awaiting vote. It is Senate Bill 6005 or 6005A, otherwise known as microstamping. It calls for ALL handguns delivered anywhere in the State of New York, or ALL handguns manufactured anywhere in the state of New York to be capable of stamping a microscopic serial number of sorts on spent shell cases fired from the handguns. It also makes any handgun that does not have a laser etched firing pin with the microstamp on it, ILLEGAL, and the owner of that handgun may have his firearm confiscated, may be fined, charged with a felony, or all 3. The sponsor of the bill, ERIC SCHNEIDERMAN, claims that this will combat gangs and "illegal guns" statewide. That is a bunch of BULLSHIT! This is an infringement of our 2nd amendment rights.
