If he HAD killed someone with a Chevy, is GM liable? I gotta go with OLB on this one - it’s insane to hold a manufacturer responsible for the criminal use of its products.

But back to our muttons - what possible reason could Remington have for asking for these records?

I think weapons manufacturers should be held liable for a mass killing. I don't think that's insane. Especially if the people suing are the victims of the weapon they made.

I don’t think that’s legally possible or ethically supportable. You can’t select one class of legal product out of thousands and hold the manufacturer responsible for that product’s criminal misuse.

Suppose I make a bomb out of chemical fertilizer and blow up a building, killing dozens of people and injuring hundreds more. Is DowAgro responsible for those deaths and injuries?

Why should guns be treated differently than other products?
