Smith & Wesson tumbles on disappointing guidance

[Jade Falcon]

I myself would be looking at new Smiths instead of a new Colt as a pre-erection errr... election purchase.

Just curious: why?

 

[TTSX]

Point is the potential earnings are not huge. Not like they're gonna pull an Amazon and do a 20:1 split anytime soon. How much cash would you need to sink into their stock to make it worth your while? You might double your money, if you're lucky.

$20 is $20.

Last election I made a few grand. The earning potential is there, though not as great as 4 years ago.

Inslee banned most of them.

The AR types anyway.

I know of many gun owners that don't spend any money on gun-related items. Most don't even go shooting. They would own a gun or two for protection. Guns are not a big deal with them in their everyday life. The Gun Industry can't survive on these one-time gun buyers.

Don't look at me, I did my part.

Can't survive off such buyers is true, but sure can profit off such buyers during a frenzied pre/post election panic. Stock in arms manufacturing and ammo manufacturing would be a prudent investment as we ramp up to November.

Done my part as well…

Heck, nothing is selling here unless is a real bargain. I think a lot of people are feeling the pain of inflation. I bought a sheet of 5/8" T-111 AC plywood a couple days ago. I suspected it would be expensive but damn, $133.00!

Ow, ow, ow, OW!

Usually you can buy them with 10 round mags.

Hey, if we get enough of us here to invest we can do the same thing that happened to Game Stop a while back.

 

[quneur]

Until they make one. Even Mec-gar doesn't have one on their site. Just like any 5.8 x 28 firearms; there's no one that makes a 10 rd mag so its effectively a boat anchor if purchased.

That said, I looked at my inventory and the Five Seven is one of the few guns I do not have a ten round mag for.

 

[Boboclown]

Can't say the lock has ever stopped me from buying a Smith revolver. However if they had a model with and a model without, I'd certainly go with the lock free model with all else being equal

The lock is what kept me from buying a new 29.

 

[25-06]

Good point. I simply ignore the stupid lock on our Smiths, but I can't deny I'd rather them not be there.

I won't buy a Smith they has one. Ever.

i have payed the premium for pinned and recessed many times.

I stand corrected. But yikes, the prices.

I used to try to buy SWBI when it was low. For about 2 years recently. I gained a little (9%) but it took a long time. RGR has performed better, most of the time.
