The Company is under new management now. It's not the "old" S&W.

No, That's false. It's under new management.

The Brits are gone.

Actually, no. S&W was bought by an exec from the originally company, the britt holding company you refer to is gone. The boycot worked, the new owners bought it for about a tenth of what the Red Coats paid for it.

There is absolutely no political reason not to buy SW.

Beat me to it bump...

I won't buy from the one company who caved to the Clinton's demands. It put all of the other companies in a bad spot.

Yes, that is true, but you have to remember the climate we were in- the Xlintoons had pretty much threatenend that they would do to the gun makers the same thing they did to the tobacco indistry- sue them out of existance.

S&W should be watched carefully for any further bending over and grabbing ankles.

Under new leadership. The new guy is nothing like that, according to the American Rifleman.

Different management now... It's NOT the same company; Just the same name. Mark
