Friday, January 23, 2009

Senate Bill 353, introduced by State Senator Martin Looney (D-11), requires that all semi-automatic handguns for sale in the state of Connecticut be equipped with so-called "micro-stamping" technology.  S353 was introduced this week and referred to the Joint Committee on Judiciary.
