Cowboy boot lamps? Star spangled heart ornaments? Blue suede jackets? Catch a glimpse of the newest division of Smith & Wesson with the launch of a consumer catalog filled with everything for the home.
It goes on to say "Nearly 87 percent of Americans are familiar with the Smith & Wesson name." Yes, they're familar with it, but as a home decor supplier? I think of them as a company that makes guns.

However, with the growth of rural America it is very easy to see how they can make the leap into home decor. Some of their stuff is a bit out there, but people are leaning more toward country living every day. Rustic primitive country decor is becoming more sought after all of the time.
