‘The Gun Went Off’

Airmen covered up details of fatal shooting after ‘joking’ with pistol [More]

Your ” focus is on ensuring that justice is served ,” Col. Holmes? And the liars haven’t even been drummed out, let alone dishonorably discharged?

Does SecDef Hegseth know about this?

On a Sauer Note

New Jersey Attorney General Platkin (D) filed a complaint against SIG SAUER, making numerous false and unsubstantiated claims about the P320. This false information requires immediate clarification and remedy. [More]

New Jersey Democrats don’t care about safe guns– they just want to destroy the company.

Sig is riding the tiger, holding on for dear life, knowing what will happen if they’re thrown.

Don’t look for Garden State “Only Ones” suppliers Glock, Benelli, and Colt to act like their turn in the barrel might be next. And just what the hell is an “enhanced patrol rifle,” and how does that differ from a “weapon of war designed to quickly kill as many people as possible”?

Glock-Blocking

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed a law banning sales of one of the most popular types of handgun in the U.S… It covers handguns manufactured by Glock, as well as similarly designed pistols, that use a “cruciform trigger bar,” which lawmakers said makes them easily convertible to fully automatic fire. [More]

So that’s what being “a trusted partner of law enforcement” gets you…

That and “compromising” to save your skin…

The “cool” thing is the “Only Ones” exemption is still there! That might actually be what keeps the PLCAA in play, although I’m sure there are Democrat activist federal judges eager to impose nationwide injunctions.

And I’m sure there’ll be no shortage of gun companies eager to keep the enforcers armed and ready to confiscate.

Once More Unto the Breach

Mexican President Says No Backing Down from Suing U.S. Gun Industry [More]

What, we expect them to heed our laws and Supreme Court rulings?

Did someone say “Tax remittances“…?

Sometimes, the only way to deal with a yapping Chihuahua is to make sure it understands who the Alpha is.

Even Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson Got It Right

The Supreme Court unanimously threw out Mexico’s multi-billion-dollar lawsuit against the American gun industry on Thursday that sought to usher in major changes to firearm sales by holding companies liable for cartel violence. [More]

At what point will the industry go after Jonathan Lowy for costs and fees?

Captain’s Log

We’re the Only Ones Exposed Enough [More]

Don’t ask.

Then there’s:

The gun industry could face civil damages for the misuse of firearms in limited circumstances in Connecticut under product liability legislation passed by the House and sent to the Senate on Wednesday. Passage of House Bill 7042 came on a largely party-line vote of 100 to 46 in the House, where Democrats have a 102-49 majority. Five Democrats were opposed and five Republicans in favor. [More]

With “Republicans” like these, who needs Democrats?

The five Republicans in favor were Chris Aniskovich of Clinton, Devin Carney of Old Saybrook, Tina Courpas of Greenwich, Tom Delnicki of South Windsor and Tracy Marra of Darien.

If I were CCDL, I’d be spitting on their treachery at their “social media” accounts.

Stupid SHOULD Hurt

The Kansas Supreme Court agreed Friday with a district court decision tossing a lawsuit filed by a former Emporia State University football player shot by a teammate who mistakenly believed that disassembling his newly purchased handgun required pulling the trigger. [More]

What a moron.

Jonathan Lowy. Figures.

At what point are gunmakers going to file bar complaints and sue him for deliberately filing nuisance lawsuits, and courts slap him down for wasting their time with unethical lawfare harassment?

Goldilocks Gun Control

Survivors of the 2022 Brooklyn subway shooting are suing Glock—not because the gun malfunctioned, or was illegally obtained—but because it’s marketed as “compact and concealable.” That’s like suing Ferrari because their cars go too fast. [More]

This one’s too small. This one’s too big. None will be “just right.”

F-word these “survivors,” and the shysters and totalitarians behind them.

Proximate Cause

[T]he proximate-cause issue, in limbo will result in continuing legal uncertainty and ongoing attacks on the industry facilitated by courts that are allowing the most extreme theories of proximate cause in which remoteness is disregarded. [More]

The antis and their robed agents on the bench are counting on it.

Me, I’m still wondering which “State or Federal statute applicable to the sale or marketing of the product” is legitimately Constitutional.

Suing Instead of Solving

The Glock switch distraction [More]

As a tangentially-related aside, with the death of Gene Hackman happening while I was gone, I caught 2003’s Runaway Jury last night for the first time (co-starring the handsy Little Big Mouth). What a piece of crap primer in cartoonish anti-gun scripting and legal incompetence/ malpractice/ lawbreaking that I recommend seeing if for no other reason than to slap your forehead at the clumsiness of the attacks, and to appreciate how 2005’s Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act shields us from much such subversive nonsense, but not enough.

‘On Behalf of Our Criminal Constituents…’

A lawsuit alleges Glock makes and sells guns that are easily turned into illegal machine guns, the state of Maryland and the city of Baltimore announced Wednesday morning. Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott and local law firms announced the lawsuit, alleging the handgun manufacturer facilitates the proliferation of illegal machine guns. [More]

Tell us “gun control” doesn’t work without telling us “gun control” doesn’t work.
