Glock's Massachusetts Adventure

Couldn't help but pass this one on. (h/t SayUncle)

Attorney General Tom Reilly has learned that gun dealers recently began selling Glock handguns to Massachusetts consumers, after the company represented that the handguns were in compliance with the Attorney General's Handgun Sales Regulations.

AG Reilly's Office has notified Glock, Inc. that the "extractor indicator" device which the company recently added to its handguns is not an effective load indicator and, therefore, does not comply with the handgun regulations. The AG's Office reached this determination after consulting with firearms experts. In response, Glock has recalled all handguns shipped to dealers and distributors in the Commonwealth and ceased in-state sales.

AG Reilly offers the following information to consumers about Glock handguns:

-• Glock handguns may not be sold to consumers in Massachusetts.

You'd think he'd offer a few more bullets if he was going to use that writing device.

As always, the handgun regulations do not pertain to firearms used by law enforcement or military personnel as part of their official duties.

- Massachusetts consumers are encouraged to return recently purchased Glock handguns.

Glock has asked Massachusetts consumers who recently purchased handguns to return them for a full refund. Because the handguns lack an important device designed to promote the safety of gun owners and their families, AG Reilly encourages consumers to return these handguns.

Yup, the police and military can use unsafe handguns, but not you citizens. I encourage anyone that purchased a Glock to giggle and not return it.

The Attorney General'’s Handgun Sales Regulations fall under the state's consumer protection law and protect consumers and their families from unsafe handguns. The regulations require all handguns sold in Massachusetts to include certain safety and child-proofing measures and safety warnings.

Now that just proves that Reilly is a comedian. If he thinks anyone believes that, he's stupider than he acts.
