SIG SAUER Brings 10mm Power with P320-XTEN

NEWINGTON, N.H. – SIG SAUER is pleased to introduce the P320-XTEN featuring all the performance and reliability of the P320 chambered in the very formidable 10mm caliber.

“The P320-XTEN is the most powerful P320 SIG has ever built combining the features of our XSERIES models with the punch of the 10mm round. The superiority of this pistol begins with the all new XSERIES grip module, designed specifically for 10mm and 45 AUTO calibers, featuring the XSERIES deep trigger undercut, extended beavertail, and aggressive stippling for a high grip making recoil easier to manage,” began Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President Commercial Sales, SIG SAUER, Inc. “Another premium feature of the P320-XTEN is the 5” bull barrel. The additional mass and weight of the barrel absorbs the power of the round lowering recoil and providing exceptional accuracy shot after shot for the premium performance you expect from a P320 and an XESRIES model to become the P320-XTEN.”

The SIG SAUER P320-XTEN is a 10mm, striker-fired pistol featuring a polymer XSERIES 10mm / 45 AUTO grip module, a 5” Bull Barrel, flat XSERIES trigger with a 90-degree break, Nitron finished stainless steel optics ready slide compatible with a ROMEO2 and RMR optic with front and rear serrations, and XRAY3 Day/Night sights. The P320-XTEN ships with (2) 15round steel magazines and is optimized for use with the SIG SAUER Electro-Optics ROMEO2 open reflex red dot sight. Read more

FPC Issues Statement on Calls for Gun Control Following Mass Murders

SACRAMENTO, CA – No words can adequately express the pain and loss caused by the mass killing of innocent people—including children—at the hands of manifest evil. We grieve for the lives lost and convey our deepest sympathies to those affected by these heinous acts.

Time and time again, we see that evil people intent on causing death, injury, and chaos simply ignore the thousands of federal, state, and local criminal laws that prohibit acts like murder, terrorism, and assault, wreaking havoc until they voluntarily cease, commit suicide, or are stopped by others—usually armed individuals.

Anti-rights politicians, special interest agitators, and the corporate press have—yet again—disgustingly commandeered these tragedies in a rush to enact their agenda of disarmament and authoritarianism. They offer false hope in support of a radical ideology to separate people from their human rights, often at the very moment that the People are most vulnerable and most acutely need to exercise those very rights.

Those who oppose human liberty would have us choose between being disarmed or facing incarceration, locked in a cage for peaceably keeping and bearing arms, as is our right. But fundamental rights are not subject to the tyranny of the majority, and thus, we reject this proposition.

The government has no duty to protect you—you are, and always have been, your own first responder. There will always be weapons in the hands of evil. The only question is whether you are armed and ready to defend life and liberty against that evil. The fundamental human right to keep and bear arms does not come from the government or the Constitution. Our rights exist because we are human, and FPC will continue to defend and restore them.

Grape Jelly is the King of Spring

Yearling male Orchard Orioles are not often seen, yet Paul had as many as 3 yearling males at a time at his jelly feeders yesterday (Tuesday), along with a variety of other colorful orioles, plus catbirds, robins, and even a Yellow Warbler (photos by Paul Konrad).GW:  Also visiting the gourmet grape are red bellied woodpeckers.  So glad the grackles and red-wing blackbirds have no interest in the stuff.  It’s like the cool birds have a feeding sanctuary to themselves.
Adult male Baltimore Orioles are the quintessential American orioles that add the richest hues of orange to your yard.
The new grape jelly fan was a Yellow Warbler that regularly visited the primary oriole feeder last week. How many different birds eat grape jelly at your feeder?

We have long promoted adding grape jelly to your feeding station, this year and other years. We knew grape jelly is the primary gourmet interest of orioles, but last week we realized that grape jelly was driving all the birds to our feeding station – Baltimore Orioles, Orchard Orioles, Yellow Warblers, House Finches, Gray Catbirds, American Robins, and yes, even Ruby-throated Hummingbirds check out the jelly offerings for small flying insects before or after they stop at the nectar feeder. These are really exciting birds to observe and to attract to your yard this spring, and maybe through the summer. Read more
