Michigan wetland restoration projects up and running

As part of the DNR’s efforts to restore wetland habitat at sites around the state, restoration projects in Gratiot and Osceola counties are well under way.

At a site known as Potato Creek in Gratiot County’s Gratiot-Saginaw State Game Area, initial construction on a 60-acre wetland restoration project is complete.

“The Gratiot/Saginaw site was a cornfield, and we’ve converted it back to a wetland,” said Steve Shine, DNR wetlands mitigation bank administrator. “It is greening up with the temporary seeding, and the basins are filling with water.”

In the spring, seeds planted this fall for dormant seeding will germinate, and shrubs will be planted.

Restoration and vegetation are complete on a 52-acre wetland project in Sears (Osceola County). A cooperative effort with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Partners for Fish and Wildlife Program, this work took place on private land, and a permanent conservation easement will ensure the wetlands never will be converted to another use.

Phantom Rescue Depends On PepperBall LifeLite

Lake Forest, Ill. —Each year, nearly 300,000 children are sold into sex slavery. Together, Phantom Rescue and PepperBall® are taking a stand in an effort to stop child trafficking.

Phantom Rescue is an elite group of former law enforcement officers, military professionals, government officials and business leaders that have come together for a single cause – the recovery of abducted children. Since 2007, Phantom Rescue has utilized Special Operations expertise, created a coalition of anti-trafficking organizations and established connections with state, federal and international authorities to perform successful extractions.

“When we go into other countries, we can’t take lethal weapons, so when we came across the PepperBall® LifeLite™, we felt like we have a fighting chance to defend ourselves and be successful in bringing these children home to safety,” said Tony Sparks, CEO of Phantom Rescue. “We are thrilled to work with the PepperBall team in these efforts to protect these children.” Read more

Auto-Ordnance Case Hardened Thompson

(Greeley, PA) – Thompson Auto-Ordnance, maker of the famous “Tommy Gun” and other classic firearms throughout history, is excited to introduce the Case Hardened Thompson.

When the original Thompson sub-machine gun was made, its design epitomized an era when firearms were works of art crafted in wood and steel. Each gun a hand machined example of American ingenuity and creativity. Auto-Ordnance has kept that tradition alive with its gorgeous blue steel, hard wood stocked Thompson carbines. Now we are taking the art of the Thompson to a new level with our new “Case Hardened” Tommy Guns. This new Thompson rifle is the perfect complement to the case hardened Auto-Ordnance 1911, introduced earlier this year.

This time honored tradition of working steel produces distinct and unique patterns of color long sought after by firearms aficionados. The Auto-Ordnance “Case Hardened” Tommy Guns are each a work of art, covered in a beautiful, swirling finish. Beneath the colorful surface is an all steel, 18” barreled, 1927 pattern Thompson, chambered in powerful .45 ACP. The stock, forearm, and grip are Walnut. While every Auto-Ordnance Thompson is made to replicate the look of the original guns, they are also equipped with a precisely machined barrel. This guarantees that they may look like an original Tommy Gun, but they will shoot with a level of accuracy the originals could not match. Read more

FN SCAR 20S Precision Rifle

<

(McLean, VA) FN America, LLC is pleased to announce the release of the highly-anticipated FN SCAR® 20S precision rifle, based on the FN MK20 SSR or Sniper Support Rifle currently fielded within USSOCOM. The 7.62x51mm-chambered rifle has been purpose-built to achieve superior long-range accuracy.

“The FN SCAR 20S is the latest addition to our battle-proven line-up of FN SCAR products and the first commercial SCAR release since we launched the 17S in 2010,” said Mark Cherpes, President and CEO for FN America, LLC. “Customers will notice that the FN SCAR 20S shares more commonalities than differences with the MK20 SSR and reaffirms our commitment to producing commercial versions of our iconic military firearms.”

The rifle achieves 1-MOA (minute of angle) accuracy to 100 yards with match-grade ammunition out of the box. The 20-inch, 1:12 twist, heavy profile barrel and barrel extension, and extended, monolithic receiver add the additional rigidity that reduces fluctuation or movement between shots while the extended receiver provides the much-needed rail space for high-powered optics. The custom-designed MK20 SSR buttstock adjusts to length of pull and comb height to customize the fit to each shooter while in the prone firing position, and the factory-installed, double-stage Geissele Super SCAR trigger achieves a 3.5-4.5-pound trigger pull.
