Safe-T-Hammer has publicly stated that they will not abide by any terms in the contract, and the gov't, under Ashcroft, has agreed not to push it. It's kind of an 'agree to disagree' kind of thing. The crux of the matter is that the people who entered into the contract got what they deserved because of the contract, and the company has been saved by a pro-2A investor(s). The contract is dead, and while it may still legally exist, the company has vowed to fight it, and the gov't has agreed to abandon it. It will do nothing for us to ruin S&W. And I respectfully disagree with you. No way is any gun company going to capitulate to anti-gunners like S&W did. They fare much better relying on their customers than turning against them. The S&W debacle has become the textbook case for the industry in how NOT to run your business. With lawsuits by municipalities getting thrown out of court like yesterday's trash left and right, the gun industry now knows, without a doubt, that backbone is the way to go. Stand up and fight, and don't sign deals with the devil.

I am so tired of hearing about this Smith and Wesson stuff. Who here thinks that S&W actively wanted to be sued? It's the same as if someone broke into your house and demanded money. Did the former owners handle it badly? Yes, they're aren't heroes by any means. Now there is a group of new owners who had nothing to do with the old agreement. They bought the company at bargain basement prices and I'm sure they would rather the old agreement went away.

It's the governemt that should bury the agreement. I wonder how many people have written their reps to dissolve the agreement. Honestly, I haven't and should.
