The only Smith revolver I've ever owned was a pre lock K frame; it's no longer mine, but still in the family.. I only bring that up to say I don't really have a dog in this fight, although it's something I think about from time to time. With that being said...

I DO NOT understand the ideology of a corporation that flat out refuses to listen to its customer base. I simply don't get it. Maybe for every one person out there that won't buy b/c of the lock, there are two that still will, but correct me if I'm wrong, but is that not a 33% loss of potential revenue?
