There has been several states that have passed a similar law since this.  Unfortunately this one is still tied up in the federal courts.  For more info you can check out: http://firearmsfreedomact.com/

Last I heard the court challenges was on hold until the Nordyke case finished, which was settled several months ago, that case was in the courts for something like 6 years.

They'll have to make sure that even the raw materials to manufacture the products are from in-state or the Feds will rule that the Commerce Clause still applies... in my humble opinion.
The master has failed more than the beginner has even tried.

Unless the Supreme Court Reverses Wickard v. Filburn (1942), in which a farmer, one Roscoe Filburn, was growing wheat on his own farm, to feed his chickens, and was found by the USSC to be engaged in not only commerce, but interstate commerce, by the twisted logic that for every bushel of wheat he raised, that was one bushel he would not buy, thus affecting interstate commerce.  By that "Logic", Montana does not have a snowball's chance in the hot place.....

Look it up.  Frightening stuff, really.

On the bright side, the Fed.gov will be flat broke soon........
The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.
