The DA will use it to show that you had a disregard for the safety of others and make you seem like someone you are not.
That is such a cosmically distant point of concern that I nearly laughed out loud when I read it.
Any gun owner with two firing brain cells should be able to tell a convincing and heartfelt story behind why an ILS system was removed.
If you are so worried about what the deletion or alteration of a Hillary Hole will prompt a anti-gun DA to say, just think about what could be said of your not even using it as intended:
"So Mr. Defendant, did I hear you correctly when you said you heard your dog bark repeatedly, you awoke, grabbed your revolver and shot the deceased in your front entryway?"
"Yes. That is what I said."
"Your revolver comes with a factory installed locking system. Was it engaged?
"No. I like for my 'nightstand gun' to be ready to use."
"You don't have the revolver in a safe at night?"
"No. Again, I feel better with it ready to go."
"Thank you. No further questions."
LATER IN CLOSING.
"You heard Mr. Defendant in his own words. He has a locking revolver he never locks, and he doesn't use a safe. At night, he is always "ready to go." Ask yourselves, isn't his cavalier attitude towards safe storage and his desire to always be "ready" to shoot, ample evidence that he was never going to give the deceased, whom we have shown to be merely a man with a mental health history who was off his medications, the benefit of the doubt? Mr. Defendant had
predetermined to shoot the "bad guys" regardless of circumstance, so much so that his NEED to be ready to shoot was the paramount concern to him in regards to his guns. He played God and condemned Mr. Smith to death as a falsely perceived threat. I ask that you find Mr. Defendant guilty of intentional manslaughter."

I'll take a revolver without an internal lock thanks.
