This statement is false. Gun companies can be sued for defective or malfunctioning products just like every manufacturer. Neither gun companies, nor any other companies, can be sued for what the misuse of their products by criminals, do to people. https://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpolitics/2015/10/06/446348616/fact-check-are-gun-makers-totally-free-of-liability-for-their-behavior https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2015/oct/16/hillary-clinton/clinton-gun-industry-wholly-protected-all-lawsuits/
