I also read that Governor Schweitzer is trying to stick it to the feds, by having Montana manufacture firearms and ammunition.
That's the other major gun bill passed by the 2009 Legislature, HB246. The Governor signed it into law. The bill is intended to set up a court challenge to the power of Congress to regulate firearms made and retained in Montana under the power the Constitution gives Congress to "To regulate commerce ... among the several states." Now we just need someone to be the test case.

BTW, Digger, let's keep the Obama political commentary out of the forum. We don't do politics here. Just a friendly FYI, Montanan to Montanan.
