****Bill 352, which, if passed, would require that every semiautomatic handgun sold after January 2009 be equipped with a new microstamping technology that would allow law enforcement officials to link the used bullet cases****

I guess revolvers will be making a BIG comeback in Ca.

When the price of legal guns skyrocket, you give incentive for smugglers to bring in lower cost, untraceable pistols for the criminal world. It is not hard to backward engineer a semi auto pistol in the Third World.

When this stupidity ends up in MA and it will if Kalifornia passes it. I'll just have to crank up the press and reload a bit more. Right now I just keep stocking up for the future. What really pisses me off though is I can no longer purchase ammo via mail order. Sportsman's Guide has the best deals on bulk ammo. Love that Russian surplus 7.62X39mm.

Actually, if you define the term semiauto in terms of the mechanism rather than the feeding cycle. When it's semiauto versus full auto then the revolver fits, too. As in one pull of the trigger results in one shot instead of one pull results in MANY shots (ie full auto).
