Smith & Wesson has generously donated to our upcoming Marty Brown Memorial Open™ IN Rifle & Pistol event on Sept. 5-6, 2026.
Smith & Wesson was founded in 1856 as the “Smith & Wesson Revolver Company” by Horace Smith and Daniel B. Wesson. A previous company started by Smith and Wesson, the “Smith & Wesson Company” later renamed “Volcanic Repeating Arms”, was to Oliver Winchester and became the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Smith & Wesson made their name with iconic 19th center revolvers including the Model 1, the Model 3 (adopted by the US Army and the first cartridge firing revolver in US military service), and the Model 10.
For the upcoming Marty Brown Memorial Open™IN Rifle & Pistol event, the following Smith & Wesson donated products will be featured:

The Marty Brown Memorial Open™ IN Rifle & Pistol will be suitable for firearms enthusiasts ranging in experience from beginner to expert; the event will generally follow the Basic Rifle and Basic Pistol courses of instruction with some drills omitted to fit into a single day and to allow for fundraising at various points. Lunch will be included.
