How many law abiding citizens out there who are prohibited from owning an auto have done anything to try and get law changed???

As a LE I find it ridiculous that a citizen can take a BS class and obtain a CHL/CCW and lawfully carry a concealed loaded firearm. BUT put an auto knife in their pocket and there guilty of a Misd A Prohibited Weapon charge....

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Contact your state reps and ask this law to be changed!

Very good point. Our government has zero common sense.

They talked me out of the Infidel even though it was $150 more than the MicroTech that I ended up buying.

In FL we can conceal a switchblade with a CWP.

eta: But I've got a couple flippers that actually open faster than the one auto I own. (Protech / Emerson CQC-7A) So I fail to understand why autos are even regulated / outlawed in some states.

They were outlawed back in the '50s to curb juvenile delinquent crime. That and West Side Story.

It isn't an issue in Kentucky.

NH legalized auto knives and a variety of previously illegal knives almost 2 years ago.

I like the emerson wave.

Having a spring loaded razor sharp knife in my pocket doesn't sound like a good idea, but I support your right to do so.
