What legal protections are provided to gun manufacturers in Alabama against lawsuits related to misuse of their products?

  1. No protections

  2. Limited protections based on state laws

  3. Comprehensive federal and state protections

  4. Protections only against class-action lawsuits

The correct answer is: Comprehensive federal and state protections

The federal government provides comprehensive protection for gun manufacturers against lawsuits related to misuse of their products under the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA). Additionally, Alabama has its own state laws that provide additional protections for gun manufacturers, making C the most accurate answer. Option A, no protections, is incorrect since the PLCAA provides a certain degree of protection for all gun manufacturers nationwide. Option B is incorrect because it implies only some protections, while in reality, the protections are comprehensive. Option D is incorrect because it only mentions class-action lawsuits, while the PLCAA protects against a wider range of lawsuits.
