SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) - George Colclough has been named president of Smith & Wesson, the company announced Friday.
Colclough succeeds Ed Shultz, who had been president of the handgun company, currently owned by British conglomerate Tomkins PLC, since 1992.

Shultz will remain president of Murray Inc., which was recently sold by Tomkins to Summersong Investments. He had been serving as president of both Smith & Wesson and Murray.

Colclough, who had been Smith & Wesson's vice president of administration, has worked for the company for 25 years. He is a lawyer and retired colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve.

Murray, headquartered in Brentwood, Tenn., makes power mowers, snow blowers and bicycles.
 
:D

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. One down, how many to go? Doesn't matter. Thanks Simonov jr. You just made my whole weekend.

:D :D :D

The departure of Mr. Shultz might be a good thing, though one wonders as to what sort of orders he might have had. Everyone, ultimately, has a boss, somewhere.

As for the gentleman who replaces him, described as "a lawyer and retired colonel", who is he, and where will his orders come from?

The question might well prove interesting.

A non event really. All bets are off until they scrap the agreement they made with the Clintonites.

Anybody in the market for a lawnmower or bicycle? I'll extend my boycott there too.
 
Don't let the door smack you on the a@@ on the way out, Sultzie!

Seriously, though, Contender is right: it is a non-event until Saps&Wimps dumps the agreement.

This new fellow is likely just another corporate boot-licker who's just waiting to be told by the pommies in charge which one to start slobbering on first.
