4. Please note, the corporation making the equipment made the sales pitch

The politician sat down and the guy who owns the company made what was basically a sales pitch to require everyone to buy his $$$ equipment and pay him huge $$$$$ licensing fees as well as a royalty $ "per cartridge".

No questions from the media or the attending politicians hoping for some news coverage. But they "did something".

Of course, there will be some contributions to selective political campaign funds from the corporation.

They can't even track 70% of the serial numbered guns they find now, but they will magically be able to track the billions of used cartridge cases with microstamping every year.

Then, when revolvers become the weapons of choice, ....? Another "loophole" they have to close.
