The Smith & Wesson M&P (Military and Police) is a line that was developed with Military and Police professionals in mind. Since its introduction by Smith & Wesson in 2005, M&P is used by nearly 300 US police departments and is now widely available in many consumer markets. Horace Smith and Daniel B. Wesson came from old New England families. Horace learned the firearms trade while working at the National Armory in Springfield, Massachusetts. Daniel's experience came from apprenticing with his brother Edwin Wesson, the leading maker of target rifles and pistols in the 1840s. The two men formed their first partnership in 1852 in Norwich, Connecticut, with the aim of marketing a lever action repeating pistol that could use a fully self-contained cartridge. This first pistol venture was not a financial success, and by 1854 the company was having financial difficulties. Faced with their financial difficulties, they were forced to sell their company to a shirt manufacturer by the name of Oliver Winchester. In 1866, using the original lever action design created by Smith & Wesson, Winchester's company emerged as the famous Winchester Repeating Arms Co.
