I always chuckle a little at the "Glock marketing killed the 3rd gen S&W" theory. I think progress killed the 3rd gen S&Ws. The majority of the shooting public has lost interest in the double/single action, exposed hammer all metal pistol. The consumer voted with their wallets, and S&W 3rd gen pistols lost. Painful for many here, the truth none the less.

....and Glock undercutting the market for 2 years ala Wal-Mart had nothing to do with it right? The fact they lost money and a lot of it per unit in order to undersell Smith and force competition out of the market is immaterial, correct? Neither the story or your assessment of Gen 3's is as simple as your post..
