XD40, came without approved lock

What is so special about the California approved locks?

The $$ the state made from handing out their stamp of approval for the most part.

That's kind of 'free money' but it really doesn't add up to much.

No, like the Roster of Handguns, it establishes the legislature is able to regulate things. It sets precedent. It accustoms the public to that power.

It's slowly raising the water temperature for us frogs.

My auditor didn't really want to see any supporting documentation other than the 4473s. I'm just trying to make it easier for her by putting the lock information there.

They don't make it easy for us...so I guess I'm being a little passive aggressive making them dig a little for the info.

That lock IS approved! Kengs firearms specialties GE5024

Cool! Thanks. It would be nice to have a manufacturer listed on the lock too instead of only GE5020 that way its easier to find on the list.

I don't add anything to a 4473 that is not required so it can't be used against me.

What is so special about the California approved locks?

California approved = Nanny State approved. Which we need to protect us from the evil corporate OEMs who make shoddy stuff to save money for their greedy selves.

Think of the children! Think for the children!
