take away the guns but it does make them "more" dangerous. Ammunition has become an exact science; should you enter an outside element (like a stamp)it can cause disastrous things to happen. Namely gun malfunctions resulting in our police officers not being able to use their guns when they need them or bullets tumbling and not traveling the way that they were intended to. This could cause more Innocent people to get shot by accident.

There are actually a thousand different things that could go wrong as a result of micro stamping.

As far as the Law enforcement side of it goes most of our prosecutors here and in Texas have stated that they are afraid that they will not be able to convict as many felons as a result of "plausible deniability" when it comes to a suspect of trial saying "I lost that box of ammo" or "I sold that box of ammo"

Plus it would absolutely cause serious problems with "black market ammo" being made and used in the commission of a crime.

Never forget that a lot of gun owners, 1/3 of them, know how to make their own bullets. They would not abide by stamping simply because of the danger factor.
