Weren't most of all of the S&W execs who caved in to the Clintonistas eventually forced to LEAVE the company? Anyway, this is an example of a product boycott that DID work.

I know ownership and a lot of management changed. I don't think they "caved" to the Clintons, but that the upper management (Brits) thought they could cut a deal and gain the upperhand in LEO sales (Glock had been eating their lunch). Well, they found out the hard way that there isn't a fork long enough to dine with those devils.

The new owners of S&W never did come right out an RENOUNCE the former owners' deal with the Clintons.

This "news" is old enough to vote. Smith and Wesson has long since been sold to an American company (Safty-Hammer) and is no longer upholding the deal it made with the Clinton administration. The Draconian rules it tried to force upon dealers are also history. Get your facts straight before you shoot off your mouth.
