Group: Make Idaho Firearms Hot Spot

The association’s membership has grown from about 30 or 40 last year to more than 100 this year, according to Jon Anson, who co-founded the group while running a horse ranch and boarding business. The group’s mission is to build Idaho into a firearms- and ammunition-making hot spot. The state’s relatively lenient gun laws make it a good candidate for companies looking to leave states that have higher taxes and more gun-control laws, the group says. “Idaho in general is as gun-friendly as it gets,” said Nagy, who does dealer development and sales for Primary Weapons Systems. The group points especially to Idaho’s product-liability laws, which it says make it harder to sue gun and ammunition manufacturers than it is in other states. The state’s laws and legal precedents are “not supportive of frivolous or nuisance lawsuits,” said Sara Keyes, a board member/ Audrey Dutton , Idaho Statesman. More here.
