I was told years back by my accountant any thing more than 2 firearms are a luxury ... LOL
I think I do my part to help the cause but S&W needs to remove there stupid internal locks and they would sell more guns .

Some how I don't see S&W going under.

The "FEAR" fueled gun buying I think will slow down. But that was for ARs and such.

The fastest growing gun sports seems to be 3-Gun and USPSA type shooting an S&W M&P models are quite popular in these sports.

Plus under the current climate of riots, knock out games, car jacking, etc. sales of defensive handguns are growing.

I teach women's SD classes and encourage women not to buy a gun until they have fired several to see what fits them and their needs. I see the same thing in my CC classes.

The over all most popular choice is the J-Frames Smiths.

No sir, Every business has its ups and downs, high and lows, but Smith and Wesson will weather this storm.

Of course that doesn't mean I wont buy another Smith or Two in the future but I probably would anyway. After every USPSA match I attend, I swear my next match will be fired with a M&P, or at least when I can convince my self I'm at a disadvantage shooting these with my M-64 Revolver.

M&P? You're talking about the "Pre-Model 10," right? Just kidding.

Interesting, but not enough commentary to clear the drive-by hurdle.

Accordingly, closed.
