| + | * [[1836]] — The Patent Arms Manufacturing Company of Patterson, New Jersey is chartered by NJ legislature. An upstart whippersnapper from Hartford, 22-year old [[Sam Colt]], was given a commission for each [[Colt Paterson|gun]] sold in exchange for his share of patent rights. | ||
| + | * [[1917]] — The third round of trials for the second [[Huot automatic rifle]] prototype, firing 11,000 rounds (half [[Dominion Cartridge Company]], half [[Dominion Arsenal]]), begin in Quebec. | ||
| + | * [[2001]] — [[Charles Andrew Williams]] opens fire at [[Santana High School]] in Santee, California. The school sends in an unarmed “trained campus supervisor” to negotiate with Williams, which results in the supervisor’s death. An [[Concealed carry in the US|armed parent]], who was dropping off his daughter at the school, halted the rampage and kept Williams at bay until police could arrive. | ||
| + | * [[2008]] — The [[United States]] National Research Council released a report that concluded that a national database of [[ballistic markings]] is unworkable and that there is not enough scientific evidence that, "every gun leaves microscopic marks on [[bullets]] and [[cartridge]] cases that are unique to that weapon and remain the same over repeated firings". | ||
