Bullet Serialization (Registration) Scheme to be Considered in Arizona!  House Bill 2833 would require that all handgun and “assault weapon” ammunition manufactured or sold in Arizona to be coded with an individual serial number, and entered into a statewide database at the time of sale.  Encoded (serialized) ammunition would be registered to the purchaser and would include the date of transaction, the purchaser’s name, date of birth, driver’s license number, and the serial number of the ammunition.  HB2833 seeks only to harass law-abiding gun owners, as criminals are not likely to purchase their ammunition through legal channels.  This scheme would also significantly add to the price of ammunition.  Please take a moment to contact your State legislators and voice your opposition to House Bill 2833.  Contact information for your State legislators can be found here.

Three Bullet Serialization (Registration) Bills Defeated in Hawaii! This week Senate Bill 2020 (Nishihara, 18), Senate Bill 2076 (Taniguchi, 10), and House Bill 2392 (Waters, 51) were all defeated in committee. These measures would mandate that each round of ammunition sold or possessed in Hawaii be marked with a unique serial number and registered to the purchaser at the time of sale. Records would include the date of transaction, the purchaser’s name, date of birth, drivers license number, and the serial number of the ammunition.  The possession or sale of non-coded/serialized ammunition would be prohibited.  These back-door registration bills were defeated because of the many calls and emails made by NRA members and pro-gun supporters.  Please keep checking your emails and www.NRAILA.org for more legislative updates.
