I'd just be pissed if I paid for one of those nice expensive Performance Center model 29s or 27s only to have it's overall finish totally buggered up by the addition of some gimickry.
Remember, these are swing out double action revolvers. Need to lock that thing in a hurry, throw the damned shackel of a bicycle lock over the top strap of the revolver.
Oh wait, that's too simple for the common folk to figure out isn't it?
No, it's got to be integral to the design of the firearm! LOL, the stupidity of this is just enough to make me laugh but at the same time it's a sad state of affairs when the simplest techniques of rendering a gun locked and inopperable are no longer adequate and we've got to figure out some newer more complicated way of doing it and then market it to the people.
Thing that pissses me off? I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA! If I want to buy a used Smith&Wesson it's got to be on this stupid damned "approval list".
I've just gone through a headache looking for a good condition S&W Model 28 highway patrolman. There was a nice 95-98% or better Model 28 at the local gun shop on consignment but the price was awful at nearly 500 dollars.
Getting online and looking around the net I found an absolutely NIB Model 28 6 inch barreled revolver that was being offered for 370 dollars, I can't get it though as the seller lives out of state. Even though this is in effect a used gun, to do a dealer to dealer transfer and to have my dealer sell it to me once he takes delivery, that darned Model 28 has to be on the approval list.
Guys, I'm boned!
I can purchase handguns not on the approval list as long as it's a person to person transfer of a used firearm, and that's what this consignment model 28 would be treated as. But to have the dealer purchase the firearm off of somebody and try to turn around and sell it back to me, if it's not on the list it can't be sold.
GOD! SCREW YOU CALIFORNIA!
I'm also likely never going to see the Model 29 Performance Center "Hunter 44" here in Ca., S&W probably won't bother to try and get it approved if they are only going to sell 2-3 of the things a year if that.
Guys, I'm really really starting to hate liberals and especially antigunners. It's hate, there's no mistaking it. Living in Ca. for so long has made it so that I have no tolerance for them.
