(1) The general assembly hereby declares that it shall be the policy in this state that product liability for injury, damage, or death caused by the discharge of a firearm or ammunition shall be based only upon an actual defect in the design or manufacture of such firearm or ammunition and not upon the inherent potential of a firearm or ammunition to cause injury, damage, or death when discharged.
(2) The general assembly further finds that it shall be the policy of this state that a civil action in tort for any remedy arising from physical or emotional injury, physical damage, or death caused by the discharge of a firearm or ammunition shall be based only upon an actual defect in the design or manufacture of such firearm or ammunition or upon the commission of a violation of a state or federal statute or regulation and not upon any other theory of liability. The general assembly also finds that under no theory shall a firearms or an ammunition manufacturer, importer, or dealer be held liable for the actions of another person.
