At the SHOT Show last January, Smith & Wesson had lots of cool new handguns to show us, and they were scheduled to be in the gun shops soon thereafter. Unfortunately, unprecedented demand for their mainstream defensive handguns in the post-election firearms purchasing frenzy set the new models half a year back on the production schedule. In August ’09, at a company seminar at the splendid United States Shooting Academy range in Tulsa, Oklahoma, S&W at last had the new stuff coming off the line for us to try, and soon for you to buy. |
