Name one other industry that produces a complicated mechanical device that usually works flawlessly for a 100 years. Not cars or computers or washing machines - they are designed with planned obsolescence in mind. But guns last forever and work perfectly despite being a controlled-explosion device!!!

Only the gun industry cares about YOU.

Yyyyyeah. Nobody feels more "cared about" than a gunshot victim.

How about AIDS victims?
 
From 2008 to 2013, the gun and ammo manufacturing industry had one of the stronger periods in its history, with revenue growing at an annual rate of roughly 8.4% to an estimated $14.7 billion in 2013.

32,000 gun deaths and 78,000 gun injuries every year. A product that causes that much damage when it "works as designed" is probably not something that should be sold.

Thinking of it as a consumer-friendly industry, it's ironic how much grief the tobacco industry gets for selling a dangerous product, but the firearms industry does not. :)

They get a lot of grief. They have to defend themselves from lawsuits by people who don't understand (or care to) that the gun cannot make any decisions on its' own.

My great grandfather's pocket watch is still keeping perfect time and it is far more complicated a mechanical device thatn anything designed to kill.

So, let's compare: a time piece that works flawlessly after one hundred years. A device whose sole function is to tell time. Harmless in every way.

Or

A device that was exclusively designed to propel deadly projectiles. Which device is more consumer friendly? One where the consumer can tell accurate time or one that is designed to kill?

You missed his point. Badly. Your grandpa's watch doesn't have to deal with severe internal explosions.
 
"Complicated mechanical device?" :lmao:

You ever try and take apart say an FNX .45 and put it back together?
Obviously not.
How about the Ruger .22 Semi-auto pistol.

NEVER take one of them down!!
I had one. Very nice shooter but traded it for a Browning Buckmark for that reason.
I just got another one on a trade, and an Colt Huntsman.

I have no idea what either are worth, but the Colt is very nice.

Haven't shot either as they are both nearly new in appearance.
