last time Smith and Wesson screwed up on gun control, the company tanked and the owners had to sell it!
Guess they learned their lesson..hee.hee.
To: matt04
Good to see S&W on the right side, this time.
And against Obama.

Is there anybody left that’s attending this show? Better bail out now before the rest of us label you as a liberal.

BTT. It’s slowly dawning on some remarkably dense people that we’re serious about this.
To: matt04
Didn’t Ruger pull out as well? Yessss!
To: Billthedrill
it will only dawn on those dense people when the MSM make brown the new black for their pants.

Smith & Wesson manufacturers a successful line of what it and the industry calls modern sporting rifles... or "defensive weapons" or "sport utility rifles."

it will be a two or three dots. one encicling NYC, one the beltway, one sacramento, perhaps albany ny.
those will be politician reservations.

Looks like they have at least 150 they pulled out. Ruger, S&W and Cabelas are soem of the big one I am aware of.

Good Lord, Eaker. The map is excellent, but the commentary will invite the clowns who brought down the blue states to dilute the Texan conservative base. Don’t Californicate Texas. I recommend you start a movement to move Austin to, say, Eugene. Now that’s a move in the right direction!

Time to let that little piece of info “slip.” If we do this right, the only booth in the whole thing will be NPR broadcasting “catch and release.”

Looks like the bottom is falling out of this Brittish Owned show.
To: 41Thunder
I sort of feel sorry for some of the small vendors, especially the outfitters. They're small business people who probably sunk a large part of their annual marketing budget into the show before the controversy brewed up.
Then Reed Exhibitions screwed them.
Now their stuck. Either walk away from their investment or show up and face smaller than anticipated crowds and the risk of boycotts.
The gun owner community needs to really get behind the people who have dropped out of this thing. Personally, I've never had a chance to go on an elk hunt before.

Looks like Reed Exhibitions forgot who brung em to the dance. This is quite an enjoyable situation... a learning experience for all. Sorta separates the bulls from the steers (and the sheepdawgs from the sheep).
