Penal Code needs some updating. Anybody driving a car with an airbag in it is guilty of a felony.

I wonder if it can be challenged because of that.

It's probably going to be one of those "spirit of the law v. wording" BS cases.

I always feel terrible for the person who ends up being the test case. Even if they win in court they somehow still loose in the end-

emergency gear and safety devices have exclusions in all laws...use a cars airbag for anything else and yes...its an illegal explosive.

No exclusions for emergency gear or safety devices here. Unless I missed it somehow.

Read the penal code.

All I saw on all of those links were whining and virtual finger wagging, and reminder of how "a guy" got prosecuted. But no links to actual events or news of those events.

Did you miss this?:

REMEMBER THAT AT LEAST ONE CALGUNNER (an absolutely great guy) HAS BEEN CONVICTED FOR TANNERITE
ALREADY - and he had a GOOD lawyer and paid $20Kish and STILL HAD AN 18mo FIREARMS PROHIBITION.
(He got out lucky.)

Not every criminal arrest and prosecution makes it into the media, and some people are smart enough to not post about doing things illegal. You'd have to ask Bill if you want the specifics, although I suspect he'll decline providing them so as to respect that member's privacy.
