Smith & Wesson debuts home decor apparel and gift catalog

To quote the press release:

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. When I think Smith & Wesson and home decor, I think gun racks and ammo boxes, but that's just me. Full story on Yahoo! News as well, original link via PRbop.

I will agree that Smith & Wesson is thought of primarily as a gun manufacturer. 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.
