[WATCH] One American Gun Manufacturer Is Fighting Back Against the Left's Wrath
PJ Media ^ | 26 June 2022 | Gwendolyn Sims

Like many businesses, America’s gun manufacturers are feeling the deleterious effects of Bidenflation. Gun manufacturers, however, are additionally subject to the left’s ire and misplaced wrath over “gun violence.” After most horrific shooting tragedies, that wrath comes with the inevitably hysterical demands to ban “assault” guns and add even more stringent federal regulations on gun ownership while simultaneously vilifying all gun owners along with the entire gun industry and its workers.

At long last, one American gun manufacturer, Smith & Wesson, has had enough. Smith & Wesson — one of America’s oldest gun manufacturers since 1852 — is hitting back against the left’s gun hysteria and villainization in no uncertain terms.

it wasn't long ago that Smith & Wesson,which has had its headquarters in Massachusetts for 100+ years,announced they were moving to Tennessee. Howie Carr,a great Boston talk show host,said he had sources at the company who said that management was fed up with the state's politicians and expected even more mistreatment in the future.

I don’t remember that. What actions did S&W take with their handguns in that agreement?

I think that it was both single and double actions.

I really like my Smith & Wesson's: .38 Special, Airweight Revolver M&P15 Sport II 5.56

I love my not so airweight X-Frame SW 460 magnum. I imagine that it could blow a lung or two out while evacuating a chest cavity. That baby packs a whollup

The #1 is still available on a very limited basis. A big Ruger distributor Lipsey’s offers them in boutique calibers such as .257 Roberts etc….

Another consideration is they probably want to dedicate as much manufacturing capacity as possible to hot items.

But like the.41 Mag and 16 gauge the #1 is a niche item that will never disappear completely.

You would have to do the research on that.
I do not recall the details, other than some form of bankruptcy.
