Playing Devil's Advocate here:
I think the non-reloadable feature has some positive aspects. One being to
decrease production costs. Strictly speculating might it be possible to
construct a "super glock" using injection techniques? Thus such a weapon
would be a "throw-away".....use once and discard. I dunno whether it would
be a single shot or not. I doubt it...
I think also that being a throwaway might make it easier to design it as
tamperproof....making it harder to disable the "identifiers" (dye...or as
Charlie mentioned....an LCD camera)

Unfortunately this assumed that the Police were "good guys"...actually having
the welfare of the citzenry in mind.
It appears that this concept has problems....I wonder if they are soluable?
