Divided loyalties from the Citizen of the World in our White House.
At last, vindication for Jocelyn Elders and her “safer bullets.”

Bubble wrap and Velcro to be ordered next.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with the M9 Beretta. It has a couple of weaknesses in that the grip is a little large for girls and the double action trigger is a bit heavy.
Otherwise it is a sterling example of reliability, durability and ease of hitting what you are shooting at.
The only real problem was some early slides cracking due to being fired extensively with +P+ ammo. That has been corrected. The other is unreliability with a certain series of magazines. Beretta warned them about the magazines but the Army went ahead with them anyway.
Overall I think they should just go to the Sig P226. It is no more reliable or durable but does have a better double action and the grips feel better.
They could just go back to the Browning Hi-Power used by other countries. It is durable and reliable and fits the hand better than just about any pistol. They need to change the barrel to a one piece just like the early ones and issue 15 round mags instead of the 13 round ones.
Put condoms over the barrels..
Here is the scary part:
“The Presidential Memorandum directs the departments to conduct or sponsor research into gun safety technology that would reduce the frequency of accidental discharge or unauthorized use of firearms, and improve the tracing of lost or stolen guns.”
There are numerous technologies that are expensive and could do just that.
Consider an RFID chip embedded in a composite frame. The proper type of scanner could elicit a signal that identifies the firearm, tells whether it is in motion or not, and with a couple of recievers, give its location.
That is pretty Orwellian stuff.
Sure, it can be countered, but the idea is to make weaopons in the hands of citizens risky and illegitimate.

It’s very easy to make a safe firearm.(1)design it so it has no firing pin.(2)Mandate that any future firearms cannot have a bored barrel.
Now that’s a safe weapon.
