I heard of this proposal a couple of months ago, and made the mistake of dismissing it as impossible because the whole notion was so blatantly impractical, ill-conceived, useless and just plain ludicrous.
It's the last time I'll make that mistake.
I don't think it's framers really believe that it'd make it easier to track criminals. The whole purpose is to create a mechanism whereby it would be possible to file lawsuits against ammunition manufacturers in addition to gun manufacturers for crimes committed with firearms.
The whole impetus behind this gun/ammo maker witchhunt is to emulate the lucritive legal campaigns against the tobbacco manufacturers. Basically extortion for settlement costs.
These are sad times.
