Smith & Wesson has launched its American Guardians Rebate Program. It is designed to offer a discount to military members, including veterans who have been honorably discharged, and first responders, allowing them to receive up to $150 in physical or virtual prepaid cards with a qualifying purchase of a Smith & Wesson firearm or Gemtech suppressor.

The program began Oct. 10, 2025, and runs through April 10, 2026. The offer, which is limited to one rebate per eligible new firearm or suppressor purchased, can be redeemed exclusively online at this webpage, where participants can also find the full terms and conditions. All individuals must have a GOVX account to be eligible for rebate submissions.

The American Guardians initiative now features hundreds of products with significant savings back to you in form of a rebate.”
