12. A lot of..........
Edited on Thu Oct-16-03 01:23 PM by a2birdcage
companies are already producing their pistols with the loaded chamber indicator. The new Springfield XD-9 and XD-40 have them. I'm not really for or against this being as like the man said, "You can't legislate intelligence". I always treat every gun I come in contact with as if it were loaded as should everyone. I believe that teaching gun safety in public schools would eliminate a lot of accidents. Maybe not all but this would be a great way to cut down on some of the accidents without imposing any Constitutional restrictions on a law-abiding adult to own a gun. The magazine disconnect is very easy to disable and I actually know of some gunsmiths that will do it. It also smoothes out the pull of the trigger once it is done. I wonder if the new law states whether it will be illegal to disable these safety features after the gun is sold?
