Massachusetts, Gun Control And The Future Of Smith & Wesson

"Make your decision now. You can relocate to a free state where the workers are non-union, the people loyal and the land vibrant, or you can stay put and die on the vine. As for me, I have two Smith & Wesson weapons, both of which I love. I had intended to buy more, but if Smith & Wesson stays in Massachusetts, I won’t spend another penny of my hard earned money on revenue for Massachusetts to enact more gun control."

I think I'll respect S&W's plans on this issue because I'm not privy to their estimates of what they would lose and what the new investment cost would be to make such a move of their facilities. I don't think anyone without that detailed knowledge should make judgements advocating boycotting S&W. If S&W builds any additional manufacturing facilities in the future, I would hope they're in more gun-friendly states.

A 'bit' of history should certainly be factored into any of their economic studies - what occurred when they 'sold out' to clinton's plan and subsequent purchase by a British corporation. As I recall they very nearly went under (and probably should have). I suspect that should they remain in taxachusetts that the way they got treated then will be chump change compared to the way we would treat them now. Anyone who does business with them should they remain there might as well just cut their own throat................

I have always loved S&W revolvers. Some things just fit me and others not quite. I was disappointed when they discontinued the Model 29 of which I have owned 3 different models. I hope they leave Massachusetts and get out of that bastion of liberal nonsense.

I have no interest in what S&W may or may not do. Nor do I have any interest in anyone else who ever bent over for William Jefferson Clinton.

There is not nor will there ever be any S&W product permitted in my home.

End of discussion.
