Thanks for the info.

I know a lot of us feel we "won" today, even though trigger locks have now been imposed on manufactures. I suppose next they will have to be permanently affixed or some other useless B.S.

Would it be legal for a dealer to have an offer to immediately buy back a trigger-lock for $5 with a receipt? Then the dealer could simply resell the same lock over and over again.

The bill will go to a Senate-house conference committee to work out the differences in the two versions. Maybe the trigger lock amendment and anything else in the bill we don't like can be modified or eliminated in that conference.

BTW, does anyone have a link to a site where the entire Senate bill as passed can be read? I would like to know what is in those amendments that were agreed to, especially the Craig amendment about collecting compensation for providing criminals with guns. I hope I'm wrong, but that sounds suspiciously like a loophole that an anti-gun judge could drive a truck through.

LOL! I can't think of one thing that can be "permanently affixed", with the exception of my fingers to this darn FR website. :)
