ORIGINAL: swampdog_My S&W Model 60 came with a fired shell just for Mass.and Conn.What is that all about? They just want to make sure the dang thing works or what?
NO!! They'd prefer it if it DIDN'T work!! What's happeniong here is they want a fired case and a BULLET so they can come get you when someone uses that pistol in a crime!! It's called BALLISTIC FINGERPRINTING, and, although it's a waste of time and a helluva lot of taxpayer's money, it makes the anti-gun s.o.b.'s feel all warm & fuzzy!!
