S&W Pistol Rebates Coming?
- Thread starter TTSH
- Start date
Anyone know more details about this?
What that says to me is the rumors about a new 2.0 Shield and Bodyguard may have some validity.

rebates
nothing would surprise me this summer.
"summer sizzlers" were comming in summer months in the past.
I just know that inventory is backing up at many factories and they will need to clear it out.
Ruger LCP old model price reduction with intro if new model,
ammo shortage is over, ammo prices are down, no gun panic due to election results,if it's not new or collectible its just another polymer gun at this point.
(sorry,polymer fans...)
Crimson Trace just started $50 back on lasergrips, lots of other rebates poised to start I bet. coincidentally 4/30 is fiscal year end at S&W.
hold on til 4/1 and see.
I speak from
35 years in retail,distributor, and rep business

Just saw 25% rebate of purchase price on Win ammo as well.
gonna be a great summer to buy stuff!

In the M&P 2.0 section of the company's Investor Presentation document they write "Multiple new product additions and line extensions in 2017".
It seems that since President Trump won the election gun sales are slumping.
Now that people don't have to worry about Hillary taking actions to outlaw guns many people have stopped, or at least slowed down with their gun purchases.
That has put the gun industry in a slump so it looks like rebates may be the tool to get sales going again.

Glad I'm not looking to unload a Shield about now.
Guess what I was going down to my local dealer to do today with my "spare" 9mm Shield.Glad I'm not looking to unload a Shield about now.
And guess what I just bought earlier this month.
Yes, my timing is awful.
My local Dealer told me yesterday that Smith was going to offer a $75 rebate on the Shields starting April 1. He said that the Springfield promotion going on now with the 4 free mags was really hurting sales for the other manufacturers.

Let's see. . .should I fill up my car today or buy a new gun? The cost to manufacture these new black guns is so amazingly low. We are nowhere near the price bottom.
It's legit, I received an email from a local GS confirming the rebates. April 1-June 30.
Also 442's - 642's for $309

My BG38 is almost worn to the point of being unserviceable. I would not mind replacing it with a no lock 442.
If I pass up this rebate.....AND...the new Shield 2.0 is not what I think it's going to be......I WILL BE:
It would be great if that includes the Model 442-1 (not just the 442-2).
Great minds think alike.
The biggest question I have: Will the $75 rebate include the new Shield .45?
This figures, I've got a Shield 9mm waiting to be picked up at my FFL. Always have the best timing...!
I got it on sale from Palmetto, $320 shipped, so not a bad deal, but still mad... Got this one for my wife, maybe I'll get a Sheild .45 with the rebate!
