Maybe pre WWI it happened, but not from what I've been told by past and present employees. Remember, it is a felony and the BATF along with State and Local police investigate. Any gun manufacturer doesn't want bad publicity. An employee stealing a gun is about as bad as you can get. I started going to Smith & Wesson in the early 1970's as a law enforcement officer. I was not given any special treatment of any kind when it came to guns. It's the same way today. I have known at least 100 workers both on the floor and from management. Never has any one of them ever indicated they had a gun that was in the least bit shady. Sure they would order a special gun and have it worked over and special features, but, they paid for it.
