Original Note:
Firearms were specifically excluded from CPSC’s jurisdiction when it was created in 1972. While a manufacturer may elect to recall their own product, no federal agency is able to mandate a recall of a defective firearm. https://www.cpsc.gov/Regulations-Laws--Standards/Regulations-Mandatory-Standards-Bans https://www.thetrace.org/2016/01/gun-safety-standards/
