Smith and Wesson Suing New Jersey for Unconstitutional Anti-2A Lawfare

Smith and Wesson, a leading American firearm manufacturer in business since 1856, is suing the state of New Jersey for its unconstitutional actions to infringe on the rights of gun manufacturers.

Left-wing anti-gun states have increasingly sought to target gun manufacturers themselves, avoiding the inconvenience of attacking the rights of law-abiding pro Second Amendment patriots themselves. New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal filed a subpoena against Smith and Wesson in October, demanding that the company hand over documentation of all of its advertising in recent decades.

Grewal is hoping to sue S&W for “false advertising,” a legal strategy that will involve arguing company advertisements which argue guns make residences and individuals safer meets the standard of legal falsehood. Left-wing New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy also mandated that gun manufacturers be shamed in monthly crime reports, holding lawful enterprises responsible for the actions of criminal thugs that acquire and utilize their products, often illegally.
