A new legal assault on firearm makers:
Some guns may be dangerous
By Paul Barrett. September 7th, 2016
Trouble is brewing in New England for gun manufacturers. The Massachusetts attorney general has launched an innovative investigation of major firearm makers based on her state's expansive consumer-protection law.
The probe targets at least two companies--Glock Inc. and Remington Outdoor Co.--and possibly others. The investigation came to light because of lawsuits the gun companies recently filed seeking to block or narrow the Massachusetts safety investigation, calling it overly intrusive. The defensive litigation stated that Attorney General Maura Healey is demanding that Glock and Remington surrender a wide range of internal documents, including safety-related complaints from customers.
Glock is Austria-based and controlled by its founder, 87-year-old Gaston Glock. Beginning in the mid-1980s, the company-s pistols revolutionized the handgun market with their large ammunition capacity and lightweight, mostly plastic frame. Remington, 200 years old and based in Madison, N.C., is part of Freedom Group, which, in turn, is owned by a New York private equity firm by the name of Cerberus Capital Management. ....... 
(Sigh) - so, guns are dangerous! Of course they are potentially, every one of them if not used safely. Cars (and electrical appliances) are dangerous too, potentially! Let's try and make sure everyone knows that at the very least, Jeff Cooper's safety rule "do not point a gun at anything you do not want to destroy" is adhered to - then no person gets hurt. "Accidental" discharges are "negligent" discharges - carelessness and lack of safety.
