Default If you thought HB 30 was bad

Go to the General Assembly website and read HB 291
which includes this gem!

§ 6182. Safety standard.
8 (a) Scope.--This section applies to all handguns
9 manufactured, possessed, sold, offered for sale, traded,
10 transferred, shipped, leased, distributed or acquired within
11 this Commonwealth.
12 (b) Requirements.--The Pennsylvania State Police shall
13 promulgate regulations prescribing a handgun safety performance
14 standard. The safety standard shall include, but not be limited
15 to, the following requirements:
16 (1) A handgun shall be personalized so that it can only
17 be fired when operated by that handgun's authorized user or
18 users.
19 (2) The technology establishing personalized handguns
20 shall be incorporated into the design of a handgun and be
21 part of its original equipment and not an accessory.
22 (3) No personalized handgun may be manufactured to
23 permit the personalized characteristics to be readily
24 deactivated.

These so-called legislators are trying to impose manufacturing standards for technologies that don't even exist yet.

I sure hope everyone here is willing to speak out against this idiocy!

This technology is so stupid it makes my head hurt just to think about all the things that can possibly go wrong.

Use the Pennsylvania Legislature website to find your representatives and contact them about not supporting this bill when appropriate!
