SIG Sauer unveiled its Legion program last fall, which showcased P226 and P229 pistols that have been upgraded to include features desired by professional operators but, for now, are only available on the civilian models. Both the P226 and P229 are finished in a proprietary Legion gray PVD coating, custom G-10 grips with a Legion medallion, the new SIG Sauer Electro-Optics X-RAY high visibility day/night sights, and ship with three magazines. Tonight American Rifleman TV gets a chance to fire these new guns at SIG's Newington, N.H., factory, and learns the many other benefits of becoming a Legion member. 

"Rifleman Review" takes a look at the Les Baer Stinger 1911 pistol,


and "I Have This Old Gun" focuses on the Smith & Wesson Model 76 Submachine gun.
