I remember 70-73, when dealers were pressured by distributors
to stock S&W leather, police supplies, hand cuffs, ect. This must
have been about the time Dirty Harry movie came out. Small
dealers would not get any S&W handguns unless they bought
S&W products. I was buying a lot of hand guns at the time and
LGO would give you a S&W product with your purchase. I had
one of the saps. Use to take it on trips,ended up giving it to a
French Canadian in Quebec who was guiding us for bear. He
called it his tire tester.
