Screw S&W - they've never rejected the "agreement" they signed with the Clinton administration "to fundamentally change the way guns are designed, distributed and marketed."

They've since been sold, but I don't recall them ever publicly repudiating that agreement.

Among other things, they agreed to not sell to anyone who sold firearms at a gun show unless EVERY transaction at that show went through the federal background check system - even sales between private individuals.

Yeah ... that would certainly explain all the S&W handguns and rifles that regular, licensed dealers are offering for sale at "The Nation's Gun Show". Because private sales at that gun show are just that: private. No paperwork or background check involved.
