This would have been a losing proposition with the anti-gunners no matter what.
If they didn't complain about the brand being the same - they would have cried foul that the gun shot "the same type of bullet" that injured Giffords, if it wasn't one thing - it'd be another.
Even different brand, different caliber, shotgun instead of pistol - as a last resort, they'd complain that the gun was the same color as the one used to shoot Giffords.
