Here's what Jim Cramer had to say about some of the stocks that callers offered up during the "Mad Money Lightning Round" Tuesday evening:

Smith & Wesson(SWHC Quote): "A cold stock ever since the federal government gave them blanket immunity. ... Take a little off the table."

Symbol Technologies(SBL Quote): "We are not arbitragers. ... I need you to get out ahead of time. You need to ring the register."

Halliburton(HAL Quote): "Doing great. I actually think this $29 stock is worth $60." But Cramer said it won't go straight up and could go to 25 first. Cramer owns Halliburton for his Action Alerts PLUS charitable trust.

Sirius Satellite Radio(SIRI Quote): "Somebody launched a bear raid against Sirius today [with rumors that Howard Stern would return to regular radio]. ... Mel [CEO Karmazin] himself is assuring me that that is not going to happen ... This stock is going to trade 3-4, 3-4, until Mel picks up the phone [and calls XM about a merger]."

New Century Financial(NEW Quote): "That dividend is not without risk. ... It is a riskier stock than you realize because they are doing some second mortgaging. I say you're right, they're wrong. I'll bet with you."

Yahoo!(YHOO Quote): "I pulled the trigger for my charitable trust at $25.38. ... Enough is enough" negative sentiment on Yahoo!.

Knightsbridge Tankers(VLCCF Quote) is a good situation that yields 12%, but it's levered to tankers, Cramer said. "That dividend is suspect. Don'tBuyDon'tBuy."

FortuNet(FNET Quote): "Do you mind if we stay with best of breed?" Cramer recommended International Game Technology(IGT Quote), which he owns for his charitable trust.
