I shot one Friday, I was favorably impressed. Not like S&W's last foray into other than handguns. They imported some rifles and shotguns with the S&W name on them, they were nothing special. They also got into manufacturing ammo. I had the opportunity to visit their ammunition loading operation. They had a lady emptying boxes of 100 primers into quart Mason jars which were used to feed the loading machines. She had about half a dozen jars full of primers. I couldn't get out of there fast enough. If one of those jars had mass detonated for whatever reason it would have killed everyone for 40 feet. Their ammo was junk. I got a couple thousand pieces of 357 magnum brass from a cop. Damn, I thought I hit the jackpot! They split on the first reload. When they were loaded, not when they were shot.
