A committee of NRA editors and staff, representing more than a century of collective experience in the firearms industry, voted on the awards. To be eligible for the Golden Bullseye Award, a shooting-related product must be recently introduced, reliable in the field, innovative and widely available.
Michael F. Golden, President and CEO of Smith & Wesson, said, "We are honored to be selected as the 'Manufacturer of the Year' from the Shooting Industry Academy of Excellence and to receive this year's NRA Golden Bullseye Handgun of the Year Award. Our employees have worked hard to re-energize Smith & Wesson.”

We remain dedicated to developing innovative, high-quality products and marketing programs that meet the needs of all our customers, and we are proud to have those products and programs recognized by the industry."
