Smith & Wesson sues NJ over ‘anti-Second Amendment agenda’

American Military News: Smith & Wesson, one of largest gun manufacturers in the country, sued New Jersey in federal court Tuesday to stop a subpoena from the state’s attorney general which they say was part of an anti-Second Amendment agenda.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the October 13 subpoena is a move linked to a widespread push from gun-control advocates to target the firearms industry for its marketing approaches.

Attorneys for Smith & Wesson said the subpoena, filed by New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal, “seeks evidence of consumer fraud relating to advertising – but in reality, it seeks to suppress and punish lawful speech regarding gun ownership in order to advance an anti-Second Amendment agenda that the Attorney General publicly committed to pursue.”

Included in the state’s subpoena are requests for Smith & Wesson’s marketing statements claiming their firearms are safer than their competitors, concealed carry enhances an individual’s lifestyle, and beginners can handle the company’s firearms effectively for self-defense purposes. read more

  1. Good luck finding a honest judge who uses the US Constitution in making rulings. They all seem to just make rules up as our new ruling class tells them. It won’t change until Americans start enforcing the second amendment with backbone and thinning out the UNAMERICANS.

  2. I miss my 2 6″ 686’s.

    One had adjustable Front & Rear sights.

    The other one was a factory performance center with a solid front blade and a front port.

    Both with Pachmayr grips.
