[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most are privately held, presumably for this very reason. Translation, your money is really no good to them.

S&W is public though. [/quote]

You're completely incorrect.

Completely??  You do understand that the use of the word stock in that title referred to INVENTORY, aka stock room.

And I did acknowledge that S&W was public. Do you know what public means?  It doesn't refer to the taxpayer in this instance.

And Cabela's is a store, not a manufacturer. [/quote]

Oh my goodness. For the benefit of anyone else reading...There are two major gun manufacturers, Smith and Wesson is one, strum ruger is the other, and they are both publicly traded. So PP's reassurance that they are privately held and do not need my money, when both major players are publicly traded, was incorrect - my guess is she was one of those "take a guess" posters who guess with an aura of authority. So unnecessary to give advice on something you don't know.

And your mocking of me asking if I know what things mean is crazy-seeming. Did you click on the wrong article that you thinkI'm talking about taxpayers and inventory? I don't even konw how to follow your logic. But, for the others, here is a quote:

"But there is a rally in one small sector Wednesday that may seem counterintuitive at first: guns and ammo. Firearms manufacturers Smith & Wesson (SWHC) and Sturm, Ruger (RGR) both popped Wednesday. Shares of hunting goods retailers Cabela's (CAB) and Big 5 Sporting Goods (BGFV) were also higher."

While I don't want to fund gun stores, either, or other stores that sell guns, I just wanted to clear up that gun manufacturers are definitely publicly traded. PP, you were factually incorrect, just let it go! [/quote]

You've have got to be one of the most miserable people to live with. In two instances I acknowledge that S&W is public.

Let's make it three times, S&W is a public company. Do I need to bold each time?  Do I need to spell it out for you?

Question.

What about Remington? Glock? Bereta? Winchester? Or Bushmaster?

Dare I mentioned the meaningless of a stocks movement in one day?[/quote]
