As I read the part celebrating the purported “benefits” of all-electronic 4473 completion and retention, I can only stand in astonishment. Do the writers and editors honestly believe that is a good idea, or that knowledgeable committed 2A readers would think so? With “pro 2A” friends like these, who the hell needs Brady and Giffords?
