Industry insiders have been aware of it for quite # some time and you haven't read anything about it. Guess why. Well, it's # too late for a coverup now. The FBI has pulled all of the 10mm S&W's # from service and returned them to S&W who continues to be interested in # solving the mechanical problems." # # Anybody out there heard anything more specific on the problems with the # S&W guns? I've heard similar stories. The obvious solution is a large purchase of Glock 20s or 22s.... :) -- --------------------------------- "Well whose opinions did you THINK these were...?"
