Maloney, D-N.Y., chair of the oversight committee, asked Daniel if he felt any personal responsibility for manufacturing and marketing the gun used by the gunman in Uvalde. The oversight committee also invited Mark P. Smith, president and CEO of Smith & Wesson, to testify before the panel Wednesday. Wednesday’s hearing also examined the efforts of gun manufacturers to market assault weapons to young men, like those who carried out the mass shootings in Buffalo, Uvalde and Highland Park.
