Benchmark reiterates a 'Buy' on Smith & Wesson Holding (NASDAQ: SWHC) price target raised to $13.00.

Analyst, Mike Greene, said, "We continue to believe that, while there is currently some “political buying” leading up to the election, commercial firearms are seeing long-term, secular growth from an increasing social acceptance of firearms for both personal defense and recreation/leisure—particularly with women and younger demographics. We believe SWHC will outpace this already strong growth by gaining share, particularly its polymer pistol market share with its M&P line."

FY13 raised to $0.85 and $536M, respectively. FY14 established at $553M and $0.96.
