I'd love to see smith open up a crowd funding website. Users would post there gun ideas, like in this forum. You could the vote for ideas. The most popular ideas would then be researched by smith to see at what price point and time line they could be brought to market. They would determine that they need X number of preorders to make a model economically viable, and once they hit that number, the begin production.

This seems like a no brainer win win for smith. It allows the customer to put forth product ideas, it takes the risk out of new products and variants, and it allows them to diversify.

This could be a different way for Talo or Lipseys to gauge the real demand for unique runs.
 
"they tell me SW has little interest in dealer runs these days."

It could also be said that die-hard Smith & Wesson buyers/collectors have little to no interest in any dealer runs these days made by S&W.
