Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Board Recommend Projects

Contact: Jon Mayes, 517-284-5954

The Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Board has recommended that the Michigan Legislature approve 60 recreation development projects and 15 land acquisitions totaling $45 million to be funded in 2026.

The board this year considered a total of 100 applications seeking over $56.6 million in funding. In a competitive process, all eligible applications were evaluated based on scoring criteria approved by the Trust Fund board.

The panel recommends funding to state and local agencies for development projects and land acquisitions aimed at furthering access to public outdoor recreation.

This year, the board recommended $19.1 million for development project grants and $25.8 million for acquisition grants.

Inside those amounts, there were 55 development grants totaling $17,704,000 and 10 acquisition grants totaling $10,266,000 recommended to be awarded to local units of government. In addition, five development projects totaling $1,430,000 and five acquisition purchases totaling $15,600,000 were recommended for the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.”

“The Trust Fund continues to be a tremendous source of funding for important projects and land acquisitions across Michigan,” said Michigan Department of Natural Resources Director Scott Bowen. “Since 1976, more than 3,000 projects or acquisitions have been funded with the help of Trust Fund dollars, creating an outstanding legacy spanning nearly half a century.”

The Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund is a restricted fund that was established in 1976 to provide funding for public acquisition of lands for resource protection and outdoor recreation, as well as for public outdoor recreation development projects. It is funded through interest and earnings on funds derived from the revenues of state-owned oil, gas and minerals.

Over the past 49 years, the Trust Fund has granted more than $1.3 billion to state and local units of government, across 3,015 allocations, to develop and improve recreation opportunities in Michigan.

“From a Keweenaw Heartlands land acquisition in Keweenaw County to a Salsinger Trailhead land purchase as part of the Joe Louis Greenway in Detroit, to dozens of development projects scattered all over our state, the Trust Fund is making substantial progress every single year,” said Dr. Brandy Brown, chairwoman of the Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund Board.

The Trust Fund board’s recommendations will go to the Michigan Legislature for review as part of the appropriations process. Upon approval, the Legislature will forward a bill to the governor for signing.

A list of the final recommendations made by the Trust Fund board is available at Michigan.gov/MNRTF.

Designed exclusively for the LSS GEN3 Chassis System, the STS delivers the perfect fusion of modern functionality and classic design.

Tool-less cheek riser adjustment using the MDT thumbwheel accessory

Length-of-pull spacers (4 included)

Jump in the “Pool” for Population Management Hunts

AZGFD aims to meet management objectives beginning January 2026

The Arizona Game and Fish Department (AZGFD) is seeking to bolster its pool of hunters who apply to be randomly selected throughout the year for specific population management hunts.

Population management hunts enhance the department’s ability to meet population and habitat management objectives when traditional harvest strategies are not meeting these objectives.

Only those hunters who have submitted a Hunter Pool Application for population management hunts will have a chance to be drawn. Applicants should note that if they choose to participate in a population management hunt, and fill their annual bag limit for that species, they cannot take part in a general season for that species even if selected through the standard draw process.

AZGFD encourages all interested hunters to complete a “Hunter Pool Application,” which can be found — along with detailed information about population management hunts — on Page 49 of the “2025-2026 Arizona Hunting Regulations.”

Applicants should mail their completed application and nonrefundable application fee of $13 for residents or $15 for nonresidents, per species, to: Arizona Game and Fish Department, Attn.: Drawer FAB, 5000 W. Carefree Highway, Phoenix, Ariz., 85086-5000. Do not send cash.

Chiappa Unveils the New Rhino 60DS L-Frame in .44 Magnum with Three Distinct Finishes

Chiappa Firearms will open 2026 with the introduction of a new L-Frame Rhino chambered in .44 Remington Magnum, a platform expansion that brings the Rhino’s well-known low-bore recoil characteristics into a larger, purpose-built magnum revolver.

The .44 Magnum 60DS lineup will be available in three finishes: Black, White Nickel, and Gold PVD. This expansion of the Rhino line delivers the full mechanical advantages of the updated L-Frame architecture while remaining accessible to a broad range of shooters and collectors.

Built around the Rhino’s trademark bottom-chamber firing geometry, the new .44 Magnum 60DS reduces muzzle rise and straightens recoil impulse, a decisive advantage when moving a high-pressure cartridge through a revolver platform. The enlarged L-Frame introduces updated ergonomics, including twin finger stops and a revised grip interface for improved leverage and repeatable hand placement. Despite the larger chambering, the frame maintains Chiappa’s characteristic balance between strength and weight using a 7075-T6 aluminum frame paired with a steel barrel and breech shield.

All three standard finishes share the same mechanical core and configuration. Each model uses a 6-inch barrel, fiber-optic sights (fixed front, fully adjustable rear), a double/single-action system, and a six-round cylinder. A comprehensive safety suite, comprising a cylinder block, rotation lock, and hammer block, is carried over from prior Rhino generations. Although each finish provides a distinct visual identity, the underlying platform remains a purpose-driven .44 Magnum revolver designed for stability, controllability, and repeatable performance.

The Rhino 60DS L-Frame weighs 2.92 lbs, measures 11 inches in overall length, and ships with Hogue rubber grips for improved recoil management. Each revolver is packaged in Chiappa’s hard case and includes the standard owner’s kit and Rhino sticker. Read more
