Ruger Releases Ultra Lightweight 10/22 with Carbon Fiber Barrel Sleeve

Sturm, Ruger & Company, Inc. (NYSE: RGR) is proud to announce the release of a new lightweight 10/22® rifle. Chambered in .22 LR and manufactured in Ruger’s Newport, New Hampshire facility, this rifle is feature rich with a custom look and feel.

The stock features M-LOK attachment slots at the 6 o’clock position and integral sling loops for use with locking sling swivels. The length of pull is 13.5″.

Adding to the custom feel of this new model, this 10/22 sports a genuine Ruger BX-Trigger® that has an approximate pull weight of 2.75 lbs. and a crisp, clean break. Read more

Future salmon and trout incoming! Fall and winter egg-take efforts wrapping up at DNR facilities

Every year, the Department of Natural Resources stocks fish in Michigan waters to provide fishing opportunities and maintain healthy ecosystems. Where do these stocked fish come from? It all starts with collecting fish eggs, and the DNR has been working hard this fall gathering the necessary eggs to produce fish for stocking. Fall egg collections have been completed for wild Chinook and coho salmon and for captive broodstocks of brown, brook and lake trout, and rainbow trout egg collection will soon begin.

Chinook salmon eggs were collected Oct. 1–16 at the Little Manistee River Weir. Eggs and milt (sperm) are gathered from fish during the annual salmon run. At the weir, salmon swim up a fish ladder and into holding ponds. From there, fish are brought into the facility, where eggs and milt are collected and the eggs are fertilized.

“We experienced a solid run of wild Chinook salmon this year,” said Aaron Switzer, Fish Production Program manager. “The run at the Little Manistee was healthy enough to provide all of Michigan’s egg needs. We were also able to provide eggs to Indiana and Illinois state-owned fish hatcheries. Once hatched, reared and stocked all of these Chinook salmon contribute to the Lake Michigan salmon fishery.”

Coho salmon eggs were collected at the Platte River State Fish Hatchery Weir from Oct. 15 to Nov. 1.

“We collected nearly 6.5 million coho salmon eggs at the Platte River weir by the time the egg collection wrapped up. Read more

SAF Supports Motion for Summary Judgement in California Gun Owner Privacy Case

BELLEVUE, WA – Attorneys representing the Second Amendment Foundation and its partners in a lawsuit challenging the California Department of Justice’s disclosure of personal information for third-party “research” have filed a memorandum of points and authorities supporting their earlier motion for summary judgment. The case is known as Barba v. Bonta.

SAF is joined by the Firearms Policy Coalition, California Gun Rights Foundation, San Diego County Gun Owners PAC, Orange County Gun Owners PAC, Inland Empire Gun Owners PAC and a private citizen AshleyMarie Barba, for whom the case is named. They are represented by attorneys Bradley A. Benbrook and Stephen M. Duvernay at the Benbrook Law Group in Sacramento. Named as defendant in the case is Attorney General Rob Bonta.

A hearing is scheduled next April 18 before Judge Katherine A. Bacal in San Diego County Superior Court.

Californians have been required to disclose personal information on handgun purchases since 1996. In 2014, the requirement was expanded to include long guns. In 2021, the legislature passed Assembly Bill 173, which now requires the California Department of Justice to share this information with the California Firearm Violence Prevention Center at UC Davis, and allows DOJ to share the information with other research institutions.

“This is an egregious violation of gun owners’ privacy rights,” said SAF founder and Executive Vice President Alan M. Gottlieb. Read more

FPC Files Lawsuit Challenging Washington D.C. Magazine Ban

WASHINGTON ? Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) announced Wednesday that it has filed a new federal lawsuit challenging Washington D.C.’s ban on firearm magazines that can hold more than 10 rounds. The complaint in Wehr-Darroca v. D.C. can be viewed at firearmspolicy.org/wehr-darroca.

“The magazines at issue in this case are not ‘dangerous and unusual,’ but instead are standard components of the sorts of bearable arms in common use for lawful purposes,” the lawsuit argues.

“Washington D.C. is not exempt from the Constitution,” said FPC President Brandon Combs. “Today FPC continues its work to end these immoral firearm magazine bans and other unconstitutional policies throughout the country.” Read more

Turn Christmas Leftovers into ‘Habitat for the Holidays’

When the eggnog is finished and the last of the holiday feasts are over, many live Christmas trees are destined to sit next to the road until the sanitation department picks them up. Instead of tossing your festive fir to the curb on Dec. 26, donate it to the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission’s Habitat for the Holidays program.

AGFC biologists throughout the state have designated special Christmas tree donation locations where you can deliver your tree so it can be used as fish habitat in local lakes.

The drop-off locations act just like a “take-a-penny, leave-a-penny tray” at a cashier’s station, only it’s for fish. Anyone who wants to drop off their natural Christmas tree can take it to a location and leave it. Any angler who wants to take the trees and sink them can do so throughout January. After that, AGFC staff will take the remainder of the trees and freshen up some of the existing fishing hotspots found on the AGFC interactive map.

Anglers should bring their own rope and weights to sink the trees. Paracord works well to bind trees together and attach the weight (sandbags and cinder blocks are most commonly used).

Christmas trees are relatively short-term habitat because they don’t have much thick woody material, but they can be gathered in clusters easily and sunk in large groups. The main stems will last longer than the wispy branches and continue to draw fish throughout the year. Many anglers use these Christmas trees to freshen up productive attractor sites every year, with the main trunks offering long-lasting cover and the branches of the new brush.
