I presume you mean by operation of law, not by corporate policy--two different things!
S&W Revolver Lock Failure???
“Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance.”
The lock does serve one purpose at my house.
I normally carry a 442 in my pocket on most days and when I get home I lock the revolver and put it in the drawer until next day instead of going through the trouble of putting it in my safe.

You may not be of my flesh and blood, but you are of my heart and soul.
Do not mistaken my kindness for weakness.

See, I never touch mine. I want that lock to be tight and sticky and gunked up with dust and lint--seems like it using over and over would loosen it up. But that is totally speculation on my part.

I had that thought too but having used the lock for past 7-8 years I didn’t notice it getting any looser and still never failed me despite frequent range use.

Probably pure paranoia on my part. But nothing ever fails until it does.

Thinking about the S&W lock situation, if I were just getting into handguns, or advising a friend, I'd go another route than S&W for new or, better yet buy "older" Smiths. If there were children in the house, or coming to the house, the guns would be locked up in a heavy duty safe.
Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a Single Star.
My initial thought was "law", which has a better chance now than earlier tries. But, when you mention "corporate policy," remember Bill Ruger? "Only need 10 rounds."

True enough--I have no idea who is in charge at S&W now. Could be another weasel.
