Smith & Wesson

Smith & Wesson’s K-frame series is, without question, the most prolific series of revolvers ever produced. If my count is correct, Smith offers, at least 14 models based on the K-frame. Calibers includes .22 LR, .38 Special, .357 Magnum. However, the Queen of the K-frames is, and will always be the Model 19 Combat Magnum.

In what has become a yearly tradition, a group of Catholic nuns is attending Smith & Wesson’s annual shareholder’s meeting to push the company to adopt a statement on human rights and to make a public accounting of the cost of gun violence.

It has been 61 years since the Bodyguard was introduced. The fact that it is still in production is a credit to a design that has proven timeless.

Smith & Wesson just released updated variants of their midsize M&P M2.0 Compact, now optics-ready for use with mini red dot sights.

There are two booming markets in the United States for handguns: Concealed carry pistols, and out-of-the-box competition pistols. And Smith & Wesson has been a formidable name in both for many years.

A horrible on-set accident during the filming of the dark action horror film The Crow ultimately snuffed the career of a promising young actor.

Smith & Wesson’s latest addition to the M&P SHIELD lineup is intended to reduce the barriers to shooting a semiautomatic handgun. The M&P 9 SHIELD EZ is touted as easy to use from all perspectives. Many have said it’s ideal for those with lower grip strength, like women and the elderly, but who wouldn’t want a gun that’s easier to use?

By combining three components, subsonic ammo, a modular suppressor system and their Slide Locking Device Hush Puppy wants to make the quietest handguns.

Smith & Wesson have done well selling their M&P 380 Shield EZ. Now they have answered the demand and introduced the easy to use M&P9 Shield EZ in 9mm. True Pearce, who owns the .380 version, spoke with Sith & Wesson at SHOT Show 2020.
