Default Cutaway video of a bullet in action

It's not like we DON'T know what happens, but this is a pretty cool CG simulation of what goes on.

neat video, but it didn't show the firing pin imprinting your unique code on the primer upon firing. Hmmm.... video must have been made in a Free State. Chuckling.....

Is this micro stamping really happening in some states? If so, they are not a free state and should not be part of a free nation!

Agree with above.

The bullet didn't seem to spin much.

Yes. That is why Ruger and S&W pulled most of their lineup from our roster.

Here is a press release from S&W back in 2014:

Quote:
Under California’s “Unsafe Handgun Act,” any new semi-automatic pistol introduced into that state must comply with microstamping laws. In addition, California asserts that anything other than a cosmetic change to a handgun already on the California Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale, including performance enhancements and other improvements, requires it to be removed from the roster and retested. For semi- automatic pistols, this means it must comply with the microstamping requirements, as well.

Smith & Wesson does not and will not include microstamp ing in its firearms. A number of studies have indicated that microstamping is unreliable, serves no safety purpose, is cost prohibitive and, most importantly, is not proven to aid in preventing or solving crimes. The microstamping mandate and the company’s unwillingness to adopt this so-called technology will result in a diminishing number of Smith & Wesson semi-automatic pistols available for purchase by California residents.

This is not a problem unique to Smith & Wesson. The microstamping legislation and California’s position regarding performance enhancements and other improvements creates the same challenge for all firearm manufacturers, since presumably all of them refine and improve their products over time.
