Private Military Contractor International|March 2019

Trampas is back this issue to review another addition to SIG SAUER’s elite LEGION series with an upgraded version of their vastly popular pocket pistol, the model P938. Previously, he discussed the new Legion P238 and its origins based on the Colt Mustang design. Now, following up, this article will briefly cover how the P938 design came to be and why both men and women around the worldy are choosing it as one of the most popular concealed carry pistols on the market today.

Sig Sauer Legion P938

In 2009, three years after SIG’s initial success with the P238’s release, they followed up on customer demand for a 9 mm version by releasing the P938. While the design was the same, it varied in overall specs by being slightly longer, wider and heavier to facilitate the longer and more powerful 9mm cartridge. The P938’s sales were so strong, SIG included it in a number of following specialised series such as the Nitron, Nightmare, Scorpion and even one version in which the slide finish appeared to have a rainbow shimmer. Now, SIG follows up all their success with inclusion in their most elite series to date, the Legion program.

For those of you who aren’t familiar with SIG’s Legion line of products, here is a quick recap. Basically, the Legion program is SIG’s new series of proven designs in their catalogue that have been reworked and upgraded based on years of feedback from shooters. This program is just as much about the lifestyle as it is the high-quality firearms within it. When you purchase a Legion product, you are eligible for Legion membership perks such as exclusive branded holsters, knives, shirts, hats and other gear from some of the industry’s top manufacturers all sporting the iconic Legion chevron.

Whether it’s the classic linage of the stiletto switchblade from our favorite gangster movies or if it’s the mystique of being banned in several states, the automatic knife remains on the top of every blade fan’s “must have list”. -TS

CHANGING THE TRAINING DYNAMIC WITH THE REALISTIC TARGET COMPANY

Throughout my law enforcement career, the standard training for our department, as with many agencies across our state, consisted of a static range with a solid color (black, blue, or green) human silhouette known as a B-27 target. It was only during my regular training as part of the SWAT team away from the patrol, upper brass, and investigations personnel in which things were a bit more “dynamic”.
