- supposed to get rid of the security business
- growth potential with long guns when the economy improves
- steady contracts to provide LEOs, domestic and foreign
- a fighting chance to replace U.S. military M9

Smith and wessons stock has tumbled do to increasing losses. Why? Well profits were way up when we went to war so it only seems right for them to come down as the government slows purchasing of arms. Doomsday is coming, ask anyone, and there will be more war, and they will sell more guns! Hell, how many other 120 year old U.S stocks can you buy for under 3 bucks!
Recs
It moves on fear and speculation, both up and down. Don't stay in it very long. Speculative. Management greedy and untrustworthy.

Ohhh man, thes guys hurt me not to long ago dropping almost 1$ per share.. Even though they are having a rough time chasing after S&P 500, I'll put my money on them.. this is just a time to BUY!!

What is more American?

Guns getting more important.

Most U.S. police departments went to off-shore manufacturers when no U.S. manufacturers of polymer framed pistols. S&W finally came out with some that have been well-received, winning most contracts they bid on. Firearms have a long replacement cycle, especially during budget cuts. More and more police will be putting contracts out to bid out of necessity. The end of the recession would be a bonus -- and the big prize is military contracts.

Glock firearms(a current favourite among US Police forces) do not offer a magazine disconnect. S&W M&P pistols, which are a direct competitor to the police market, do offer this feature, which is very popular among Sheriffs Police who have to handle prisoners a lot and can "safe" their weapon from unauthorized use by simply removing the magazine.
Recs
Fundamentally weak and the outlook is just as bad.
Recs
Gun control is great for this company. Thanks to that deranged lunatic in Arizona, this stock will pop, and they will beat their earnings next quarter.
Recs
Famous brand that is a little under the weather right now. It will come back.
Recs
Buy it after poor earnings announced tonight.
Recs
everybody needs a gun

S&W long rifle business appears to be gaining momentum, especially with sales to military and police. The S&W brand is one of the most respected in the world of firearms.

Knocks against SWHC
1) diworsification
2) losing market share in core holdings
3) questionable management (possible accounting shenanigans a few years ago)
Recs
Governments around the world are spending more on their services to boost jobs. These services include their police and military. Smith & Wesson will benefit from increased government spending. Additionally, increased unrest due to things such as austerity programmes and increased crime due to depression/recession will increase firearm requirements.
