I didn't know S&W was being sued by New Jersey. Here's an article from the Motley Fool, a business and investing site, about a suit against S&W. Apparently this suit has been going on since at least March of 2021.
Here's the link to the Motley Fool article and the link to a NY Times article titled 'The Most Important Lawsuit You've Never Heard Of'.

Smith & Wesson is being sued by New Jersey's attorney general over marketing claims the gunmaker made in ads that "gun ownership makes you safer," "carrying concealed firearms enhances your lifestyle," and "it is safer to confront a perceived threat by drawing a [f]irearm."
The state [state of New Jersey] attorney general admits he was trying to be "creative" in going after the gunmaker, and The New York Times has called it "a Trojan horse to expose publicly, for the first time, the inner workings of the gun industry."
