Seattle sues Glock

[Smoke]

So when do they sue all the car makers for producing cars that can exceed the speed limits? Or cars that can be driven by drunks? Cars that can be souped up for drag racing?

After they disarm you. And then they won't bother soon anybody they'll just ban the cars

This is all so tiring to see. There is always something going on in the gun world. It will never end.

Simple solution...have ANTIFA or similar groups endorse Glocks. If they do, Seattle will drop the suit and apologize to Glock as the politicians didn't realize that since a "peaceful" group liked them, they have to be a great product.....

"The little tab on back of slide is replaced to accomplish full auto fire."

That will be the way Glock gets this suit thrown out. If Glock didn't make this "switch" or incorporate it on their guns, then how can they be liable?

This is exactly what any reasonable judge would rule. Seattle should be suing the manufacturer of the "Switch" rather than Glock. This is purely an attempt by the anti-gun city to inflict financial harm and damage the reputation of the gun maker who has nothing to do with the modification device.

A buddy who has a Class II FFL brought his switch 17 to the hunt club for a demo (at night). Pretty spectacular but not very practical. It ran through the 32 round mag fast. He was actually fairly accurate with it but no one else was.

These left wing judges think they rule the universe.

I have lived in Washington State since 1952. In those days It was more than an hour to get to Seattle from Duvall. I was 14, and my parents would take a trip there every couple of months to get something that my Dad needed. Now a days you could not pay me enough to go to Seattle. I call Seattle and King County the Communistic Socialistic Democratic County of King/Seattle. We are California north.
I keep telling people to be careful of what/who you vote for, you are liable to get it!
Actually, Bellevue (just across the water, and the whole eastside) are no better. That is why more people are moving out of the west side to the eastside of the mountains, and out of state.
I shoot at two different shooting ranges here, and enjoy the time spent with other shooting people. Any time at the ranges is a good time.
Sorry for the long winded rant. Us old folks just get frustrated with what has/is happening. You can't fix stupid.

As I believe the manufacturing of devices like this is not illegal I doubt a suit against the manufacturer wouldn't fly either.
I remember going to gun shows back in the 80's in California.
Yes Cali, SoCal to be specific. Grew up with The Beach Boys, surfing, and bonfires on the beach. Don't hold it against me.
Anyway, they sold parts for Silencers (everything but the tubes), parts to convert Ruger 10-22's, AR's, AK' and others.
California laws were such that you could legally buy the parts, but it was illegal to have the parts & gun together as a single unit. As I remember even having the parts stored beside the gun was illegal as it showed intent.

I live in Southern Wa but haven't investigated the "parts" issue here. I do know it's illegal to possess a full auto here. However you can buy suppressors if you pass your Class III filing. If I really wanted a full auto I could move to Oregon - Yes, Oregon - where you can legally purchase full autos if you get your Class III for the gun. Suppressors too.
