Although it's been said there was no sharing of information (sorry TJ), at one time Smith & Wesson and Taurus were owned by the same umbrella corporation, so...
Then again, S&W is the most copied revolver in the world, especially by the Spanish, which is why S&W revolvers carry their trademark information in Spanish right on the frame. |
