11:48 ET - Smith & Wesson (SWHC) CEO James Debney says the gun maker looking for acquisitions in the "rugged outdoors" space in the $100M range but rules out apparel. "They'll be no Smith & Wesson hiking boots [or] fishing rods," he tells an investor conference. It's also looking at deals elsewhere in the gun industry--such as shotguns--as well as manufacturing companies which can improve SWHC's vertical integration. (doug.cameron@wsj.com; @dougcameron)

Yep. This time could be different. Wonder what else is being evaluated.

I own a M1000 S&W shotgun. Bought it for the wife, sweet shooting little gun.
There is time, and you must take it, to lay your hand on your dog's head as you walk past him lying on the floor or on his settle, time to talk with him, to remember with him, time to please him, time you can't buy back once he's gone" GBE

I have my dads SW 1000 12 gauge with two barrels, full and improved cylinder. Kicks like a mule compared to my Remington 11-87, but its very light and point well. I believe Mossberg produced the same gun as well.

The point is that they are looking at the manufacturing end of the business not just marketing. They want to control it from raw material to finished product.
for every stereotype there's a prototype don't be the prototype

They have tried shotguns several times, always with a subcontractor; much like their first ARs were Stag built. I'd like to see them actually make their own.
