Smith & Wesson sales surged during the same quarter as the San
Bernardino mass shooting. Sales of handguns used in self-defense were a
particular standout.
The gunmaker reported an increase of 61.5% in
the three months that ended Jan. 31, compared to the same period the
year before. Profits also increased dramatically.
Smith & Wesson's financial performance bears out a
pattern: Gun sales time and again jump following mass shootings and
other high-profile incidents of violent crime -- and the specter of gun
control that often follows.
