I was fuming as I read about the deal S&W made with the Klinton administration. But when I read the last two sentences of the article in this morning's Arizona Republic, smoke started coming out of my ears:
"Also, no Smith & Wesson firearm may be sold at a gun show until the would-be purchaser passes a federally mandated background check. Under current law, gun shows are exempt from the federal mandate."
I find it extremely difficult to believe that the AZ Rep. does not know that this is incorrect. I can just about hear the average fence-sitter say "something out to be done" when they read this out-and-out bald-face lie.
