When you say Smith and Wesson, does your mind go to, Go ahead punk, make my day! ?
When you hear Daisy, do you think of a flower or your old Daisy BB-gun?
How about Ruger?
How about Glock?
How about Matel? Do you think about the M-16A1?
When you hear Winchester, what comes to mind first?
If you think of the iconic gun that these companies made, then I guess you can say they did what they wanted. They made them legends.
Smith and Wesson ā¦ certainly not typewriters and cooking oil. Sorry, just had to bite at the opportunity. 
gota love the mod 29 S&W
Smith and Wesson - firearms (nothing particular, maybe revolvers?)
Daisy -powerline
Ruger - 10/22
Glock - switches
Mattel - toys
Winchester - white box
Ruger - Blade Runner
Also, the million-seller 10/22, and Single Six Convertible
Love my single six
I grew up very anti-gun. We only had sticks. Maybe a revolver and caps. When I think of daisy, I think she loves me she loves me not, while picking off the pedals.
I know Smith & Wesson probably make far more pistols than revolvers (and I have an M&P pistol) but I still immediately associate them with revolvers. The only other name as associated with revolvers in my mind is Colt.
Dasiy, the Red Ryder (never had one, had a Crossman power master, and never put my eye out 
)
Ruger: 10/22, by far. A total classic.
Glock: cop gun
Winchester, I think of the 94 lever action. And the cowboy logo.
Mattel: Hot Wheels.
Winchester this 1st gun I purchased at was a 15 Model 12 trap grade. still have it 64 years later.
Winchester- I think of lever action but never owned one. My first lever action was a Henry.
When I think of Smith and Wesson I think āunreliableā because both that I own are.
When I think Ruger I think rugged, overbuilt (in a good way) and reliable.
Glock perfection (thatās what they say, right?)
My dad gave me a Winchester model 290 .22 rifle when I was 16. He had used it for many years. It became, and still is, my squirrel hunting rifle. I never messed with the sights and is still deadly accurate. It shoots the .22 LR and the SL.
Charter Arms āāBoxerāā
good for 200 rounds of target loads then return to Mfg. for a total rebuild
another firearm that qualifyās for the āāgun slingerāā kit 
Whew!
I thought it was a scary black gun!!!
Iām glad you posted a nice harmless hunting rifleā¦.
Even if you canāt have one in Californiaā¦ā¦
(Sorry, couldnāt help that last shot! )
Iām not that oldā¦
