This episode of Gun Talk Radio discusses the historical and ongoing efforts to undermine the firearms industry through litigation and legislation. It highlights the use of lawsuits as a tactic to bankrupt gun manufacturers, the passage of the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA) in 2005 as a defense, and current political efforts to repeal PLCAA.
