SK Custom’s Introduces The Lost State of Montezuma, Honoring James Gadsden

SK Guns® is proud to announce the next installment of its “Lost States of America” Series. The fourth edition will feature imagery of James Gadsden and the proposal for the state of Montezuma, which now makes up the southern regions of Arizona and New Mexico. This tribute to Gadsden and Montezuma will be a limited-production run of only 200 Colt 1911 Full-Size Government Models, chambered in .45 ACP.

The “Lost State of Montezuma” is derived from a territorial purchase that led to a failed proposal to create a U.S. state. This idea emerged during the mid-19th century during a period marked by territorial expansion and debates over the organization of newly acquired lands.

James Gadsden played a significant role in this era of American expansion. Born May 15, 1788 in Charleston, South Carolina, Gadsden was most notably a soldier, diplomat and railroad executive. Gadsden is best known for negotiating the Gadsden Purchase in 1853, wherein the United States acquired approximately 30,000 square miles of territory from Mexico. This land was intended to facilitate a southern transcontinental railroad and now forms the southernmost regions of Arizona and New Mexico. Read more

Puerto Rico Lawsuit Against SIG Dismissed

United States District Court for Puerto Rico has dismissed Berrios v. Sig Sauer. Police officer Elvis Ramon Green Berrios claimed his P320 service weapon discharged without the trigger being pulled. Mr. Berrios voluntarily withdrew his suit after “admitting in court that his P320 pistol has no defects and does not discharge without a trigger pull.” For three years, SIG says it “has vigorously defended the safety, quality and dependability of their P320 pistol” continuing that Berrios’ admission came after “scientific evidence showing that the P320 cannot fire without a trigger pull and contains no manufacturing defects.” This suit is the eighteenth time SIG has successfully defended the P320 in court.
