If you haven’t seen it yet, The Center Square just dropped a must-read deep dive on the controversial ammo serialization bill currently floating around the Illinois General Assembly — the same bill a handful of radicals are aggressively pushing to ram through.
I sat down with Katrina Barker (formerly Peterson) and gave her the unfiltered background on where this thing really came from. Let’s just say… the conversation was pretty frank.
Here’s a teaser, from The Center Square:
Supporters say it could help link shell casings to firearms, while critics question its cost and effectiveness. Guns Save Life Executive Director John Boch argued the proposal is driven more by financial motives than public safety.
“This bill is an effort by a half-assed BS artist to get his patented bullet engraving system mandated into law so he can become a multimillionaire or a billionaire,” Boch said. “There’s no way this is feasible to come into existence, and this is a joke. The whole bill is a joke.”
Boch claimed similar proposals have been introduced repeatedly over the past decade and a half, tied to patented ammunition-marking technology that would imprint serial numbers onto bullets and casings.
“He owns the patent on the technology, and he stands to make out like Elon Musk if it were to be adopted into law,” Boch said. “He would get a payment, a portion of every round that’s created with his technology…”
Not brutal enough? Try this:
“Criminals don’t give a flying you-know-what about the laws,” he said. “You think somebody’s willing to kill somebody and give a damn about another stupid gun law?”
Boch said he believes the bill has little chance of advancing.
“This is just a perennial thing,” he said. “They’re talking about it, but it has zero likelihood of passage into law. Zero likelihood.”
This one below is the prize.
Mayfield did not immediately respond to a request for comment from The Center Square.
What’s Mayfield gonna say? “Boch’s right”?

If J. BOTCH owned the “patent”; rest assured, there would be an article in GSL justifying the labeling of ammunition!
Phil, I gotta ask…. What’s with the endless hatred of John Boch ? Did he pick on you in school when you were kids because you were a sissy liberal ? did he bang your high school sweetie then kick your ass after she dumped you senior year or what ?
Gee Billie Boy:
No one “hates” Botch. You couldn’t make up a cartoon character like that in a million years. Wishing Botch all the best. Botch can’t keep his own family together, but touts how he will “train” you on how to protect yours. Botch runs articles on how to keep weapons clean, but runs an article on how his children are lice infested (unclean). Botch tells you to “Follow Me Boys” to learn self-defense weapons training, yet … Botch has no military, law enforcement years of experience, or self-defense “kills” behind his plastic belt. No, no “Billie Boy”, let’s keep this laughable clown (Botch) in high esteem; until he gets more of your money for “training”! Tonight “Bill” you and Botch can spoon and talk about future conquests. Best of luck.
Phyilysis is a pathetic mal-content troll that has tried trans-gendering and now has no idea what (s)he is so (s)he strikes out with hateful comments towards more successful people than itself, aka: anyone and everyone; and (s)he cannot get a “following” on fake-book or the twits hole. Just sayin’.
Phil, Whatever Mr Boch is or isn’t matters not. It’s beyond obvious that he lives in your head rent free. You just can’t stop thinking about him and trolling can you ? the frustration just keeps growing. Here’s laughing at you …. HAHAHAHA !!!!!
Bill:
Let’s see who is laughing after the divorce! LMAO
If I had to guess, I’d say PHIL is really my soon to be VERY EX-wife.
If the patent holder truely believes the imaging to be a gold mine, why hasn’t it at least been activated on toilet paper, tooth picks, or tampons???
A better alternative would be to serialize the criminals and warehouse them away from society; and the convicted murderers should have a 2-week waiting period to meet Satan by means of “ol’ sparky”, lethal injection, or better yet a firing squad made up of relatives of victims of the convicted murderers. Just sayin’.
