SIG IN THE MOVIES - THE SENTINEL . . . The Sentinel, Hollywood's latest action thriller, is about Secret Service Special Agent Pete Garrison played by Michael Douglas. So why do you care? Because there are a lot of SIG SAUER® pistols in the film. Basically the plot revolves around Garrison who is convinced that a Neo-Nazi Aryan disciple has managed to infiltrate the White House. When a White House agent is murdered, Garrison is framed and blackmaile
d over an affair with the First Lady Sarah Ballentine (Kim Basinger). He is relieved of his duties, but Garrison won't stop in trying to prove his innocence, and save the life of the President (David Rasche). While attempting to uncover the person behind it all, he comes into confrontation with his protégé, Agent Breckinridge (Kiefer Sutherland). Check out the official website - www.sentinelthemovie.com - where you can view the trailer. You can also download cool wallpaper images featuring either Michael Douglas or Kiefer Sutherland. The Sentinel opens nationwide this Friday, April 21.
NORTH DAKOTA HIGHWAY PATROL CHOSES SIG SAUER® . . . The North Dakota Highway Patrol selected the SIG SAUER® P226R Two-Tone in .357SIG as the department’s new duty-issue firearm.

into account the needs of both individual troopers and the department as a whole,” said Colonel Bryan Klipfel, superintendent of the North Dakota Highway Patrol. The Highway Patrol will train and transition to the P226 by the summer. The Patrol's current sidearm, the S&W 4506, has been in service for fifteen years.
ARE YOU READY TO GET BACK IN BLACK? SKILL BUILDER @ NIGHT - BLACK RIFLE . . . The SIGARMS® Academy will be opening its ranges for outdoor evening shooting on selected Wednesday nights beginning in May. So to kick things off the SIGARMS® Academy is holding its first Skill Builder @ Night - Black Rifle course on May 10. Just as the name implies this is for the semi-auto rifles like the venerable AR or, better yet, a 550 series rifle from Swiss Arms. Once we begin shipping the new U.S. made SIG 556 we know what you'll be shooting. No matter what "black rifle" you bring you'll have a blast. Just like the Friday night Skill Builder dinner is included with your course fee. T
he course will run from 6:00pm to 10:00pm. Since the sun is still setting a little early here in New Hampshire the Academy encourages you to plan to bring your tactical lights. This makes for awesome low-light shooting practice. The Skill Builder @ Night - Black Rifle course is a great opportunity to run your rifle on an outdoor range with a professional instructor on-hand to put you through your paces. All you'll need to bring is plenty of .223 ammo and since it is outdoors leaded ammo is approved. If you need ammo you can always purchase from the Academy. The Skill
Builder @ Night - Black Rifle is a great opportunity to fine tune your shooting skills in a safe, fun and exciting shooting environment. For more information visit www.SIGARMSAcademy.com or call our training coordinator at (603) 679-2003. Sign up now for the first evening shoot.
