Number Identification

Same.
In the 1970s, Texas police departments were advising gun owners to put their driver's license number or even their SSN on their guns, in case they were stolen. It was always a dumb idea, but a lot of people did it.

Just FYI - at one time, Georgia "allowed" people to use their SSN for their driver's license number.
Another ill advised idea.

Also, that electro-pen was nearly impossible to control - horrible instrument.
