I haven't been into this stuff very long so I don't know alot; I keep hearing about this agreement between S&W and the anti-gun people; can anyone tell me what it is?

[Phil in Seattle]

Just back slowly away..... don't look anyone directly in the eye...

barring that.

Nomex on.
Shields up!

[miatchguy]

Ohhhh, sort of one of those, "It happened, now let's never speak of it again..." things?"

[Leaky Waders]

OK...take your hands off the keyboard...step back slowly....further...further....

Now you get to take the red pill and keep living thins fantasy land or the blue pill and wake up to reality...if you choose the red pill you will keep living you life as normal...if you choose the blue pill, your eyes will be awakened to reality ;)

Seriously though...here's a thread on the subject...as you can see I'm bias...but there is lotsa good learning here from both sides.

Note...if this doesnt work (I cut and pasted the link) then go to the legal and political and eitehr serach or go back like 90 days..there's a thread on this subject.

I convinced an eccentric millionare to give me a hundred dollars every time an "I hate S&W" post appears. I'm thinking that, in about 3 days, this thread will give me the ability to finally purchase that Ferrari I've had my eye on. I'll call the dealer tomorrow and schedule delivery for July 1st. I think I'll go with Corinthian leather seats.

I hate Corinthian leather seats...

miatchguy, do a Google search on "smith wesson deal with devil". You will get all the info you can handle.

Then come join my Yahoo group ArkansasShooters:

[miatchguy]

Ok man, thanks.

[Sir Galahad]

That's ok, Mike. You won't be riding in it.:D :evil:

[Mike Irwin]

You're right, I wouldn't be caught dead in a Ferrari.

[Sir Galahad]

Well, now, you never know. Ferrari might make a hearse someday... :D I'd let you ride in my upcoming Frrari, though, providing you buy the cigars. I like Cohiba. :D

[Waitone]

You might sense a little tenderness over the "agreement." Its be cussed and discussed over the years and over two very good gun forums (?spelling).

On THR and its parent site, TFL, do a search on "agreement" or "S&W agreement" or "Smith and Wesson agreement" or "pact with the devil".

There'll be more heat, light and information available than you'll care to endure.
