Wow,..not really too concerned about JoeBob after reading this statement..


You obviously, don't get the point. Firearms manufacturers know that firearms will be used with hand loaded cartridges. If they ACTUALLY believed that hand loaded cartridges were unreasonably dangerous, they could with a few rather simple design changes, manufacture firearms that could not shoot reloaded ammunition.

Since they don't it can only be assumed that they do not consider the mere act of reloading to be unreasonably dangerous in and of itself, and/or they like to sell firearms and know that the market favors those that shoot cartridges that can be reloaded. Either way, they don't get to claim, "Tough [bleep]. You shot a reloaded cartridge and we can't be responsible for what happens to you."
