It's called the MONTANA FIREARMS FREEDOM ACT.
There are grand total of 2, just TWO articles on this in a Google News Search, one of those is a blogs, and the other is a local Montana TV story about Soviergnty bills, and not the gun bill! http://news.google.com/news/more?um=1&ned=us&cf=all&ncl=1346554341
TO THE MODERATOR: An EXTENSIVE Google search for ANYTHING resembling a mainstream article on this shows that none exist, but thier are HUNDREDS of discussions and blog articles about it! THIS SHOULD BE BREAKING NEWS.
The "Powers That Be" are determined to bury this one, and keep it quiet. And I think we ALL know why!
Texas is working on a very similar bill right now.
Watch the libs and MSM, send some idiot over state lines, into Montana to instigate some (what they consider) newsworthy disgruntle individual attack. Create a Virginia Tech or Columbine in Montana.
Might have to make Montana a future destination if Obama screws this country up more than he already has (and we all know he will).

Haven’t Texas and Oklahoma suceeded as well?
Like,
May the Force be with you Dude
Seriously, I applaud any attempt to get
information out to the public.
“Our” MSM sure doesn’t try so it’s kinda
up to us little guys to inform.
This is why America is GREAT.
...Bravo to the governor and the state legislature...
What firearms are manufactured inside the State of Montana ?
Not to pee on your parade, but Gonzales v. Raich will likely be the precedent the government uses to kill this idea ....
Silencers work best with a bolt-action rifle. There is a long barrel and the chamber is closed tight so as to direct all the gases though the silencer at the tip of the barrel. Semi-auto pistols and revolvers do not really muffle the sound very well except on the silver screen. The revolvers bleed gas out with the sound all over the place. The semi-auto pistols bleed the gases out when the slide recoils back.
If this stands, it will only apply to MT manufactured firearms and for their citizens only. Of course, it may be an incentive for more firms to take up manufacturing in MT. The best hope is that other states will follow.
Or does he need to cast/forge/mill/whatever the frame and stamp his own name on it...
A little more detail and a little less hyperbole would make this a little better thread.
Putting on the tin foil hat for a moment, what if this is a devious plan to force a (corrupt) supreme court to rule on Federal powers, and the Federal power to control firearms?
This could be a devastating blow to gun ownership in this country as well, if this is a scam to establish precedent in the top courts.
I heard about this earlier on Beck with Judge Napolitano. They mentioned that the Governor would be making a speech at the signing. If anybody finds a transcript it sounds like it would certainly be worth posting.
I think Bushmaster should move to Montana. Maybe I should move to Montana. You know, raise me up a crop of dental floss.
bttt
Not ONE of which I can access at work - they're blocked either for "social" or "weapons" - so this is a self ping to read up on it at home.
