yes. Did you know a 5-series has 82 sq. inches of interior room and the 3-series has 80?  Hehe, hardly seems worth it.

Heh, just a redneck in a yuppie world is more like it...I still love the reactions I get during hunting season when I throw a big elk leg bone out in the front yard and let my lab chew on it...I swear a couple yuppie neighbors probably called 911.

I hope this bill doesn't see the light of day...  hmm, a good place to put it is right up those lawmakers .. nevermind.

A bill like this would probably raise prices, and even further discourage foreign imports.  Not good if I ever want to get back into smallbore.

Well we had a gun manufacturer knowingly creating a knockoff of a banned assault weapon. Then:

He said Navegar made appeals to criminals in the promotion of the TEC-DC9, including advertising it as "fingerprint resistant" and "able to fire without aiming."

So if I were to market a lock pick, saying it could open any lock in the entire city, and some one is robbed using that lock pick. Am I liable?

I think i might be.

Well, for one thing, you can fire any gun without aiming.  You just don't aim and then pull the trigger.

It is still, last I checked, impossible for a gun to decide to kill someone.

I know many gun folk do not like the idea of trigger locks.  I am all for them, I think they would prevent accidents.  I am not sure of the arguements against them (haven't heard anything, but again, haven't studied much either).

California lawyers are rejoicing, another industry to sue.  If you shoot a lawyer, who gets sued?

Trigger locks are ok, gun safes are better.   When a trigger lock is on your gun and you need it most.......yer dead.   Whenever friends or family come over, I place my H&K in my bank-safe.  One of my jobs allowed me to take an actual 1/2" thick Diebold bank safe home.  

Granted it isn't that fireproof, HOWEVER, take the smallest drill bit that a drill can hold.  One hole takes almost 8 hours with a HAMMER DRILL.  

Americans need to take RESPONSIBILITY.    Trigger locks aren't needed, responsible owners are all that is needed.

just think of all the lives this bill will save !

I'm sure the whacked gangbanger will think twice before he pulls the trigger once this is enacted :rolleyes:

or is it the gun makers new responsibility to make sure NONE of his product makes its way into the hands of those who will use it illegally - who in their right mind would support such crap besides the lawyers - oops I said right mind - so lawyers do not count .....
