Smith & Wesson (http://www.guns.com/tags/smith-wesson.html) stock steadies while Sturm, Ruger & Co. (http://www.guns.com/tags/ruger.html), a rival publicly traded company, has slowly declined.

According to Investors.com (http://news.investors.com/article/612155/201205211625/smith-wesson-up-on-strong-q4-sales.htm), the jump in stock value came after Smith & Wesson reported (http://ir.smith-wesson.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=90977&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1697940&highlight=) a much higher quarter earnings than anybody had expected.

Hard to believe that Smith outpacing Ruger. Since the sunset of the dark days Ruger has come up with some new stuff to fill the roles many of us gun owners truly want instead of the same ol' shit.

I haven't gotten a new Ruger in about 9 years, sad to say.
