If you were intent on committing a crime and the shell casings were marked somehow, you'd just use a catcher where they eject... or a revolver
Not sure if this is a valid argument. It pre-supposes that crimes committed with firearms are pre-planned. iirc the majority of crimes are committed in hot blood and criminals are not generally Professor Moriarty.

Do we finger print you prior to using your freedom of speech? How about hand prints prior to using your freedom of religion?
Government does investigate people because of their speech and or religion. Free speech zones are actively used to silence free speech. Religious profiling exists right along side racial.

imho the only serious argument is that such a law would be ineffective and costly.
Even that might not be enough of a bar because we already have many laws that are ineffective and costly.
