I agree it would be nice to have passed a clean version, but you have to remember that not all folks in Congress with an R behind their name are really Republicans. Some are on the fence, with on the fence voters.
At least the provisions here don't seem to have any real impact.
The AP thing just changes some of the penalties, no new law really.
The lock thing seems to be a moot point, every new firearm I've purchased in the last few years came with a lock. So many states already require locks that the manufacturers have been including them anyway.
So yes, it could be better, but it's certainly not as bad as could have been.
We all remember being thrown under the bus in 1985 on the MG last minute midnight dirty dealings.
