Sig Sauer held their first SIG Freedom Days event May 6-8, 2022, at the Ben Avery Shooting Range on the north side of Phoenix, Arizona.
The sun was shining as roughly 4,000 attendees walked the sandy ground to shoot Sig Sauer handguns, rifles, and even their newest machine gun, the SIG LMG.
On April 20 Breitbart News reported that the U.S. Army adopted the LMG as part of its new firearm platform for soldiers. It is a belt-felt machine gun that fires SIG’s 6.8×51 FURY Hybrid Ammunition. (SIG refers to the ammunition as “hybrid” because each round’s casing is made partially from brass and partially from steel, providing a stronger casing–where more strength is needed–while reducing weight and thereby reducing the energy soldiers burn while carrying ammo in the field.)
We shot the LMG while at SIG Freedom Days and the lack of recoil was astonishing, as was the accuracy.

For those seeking handguns, the options were plentiful. They included, but were not limited to, the P220 Legion 10mm duty pistol; the P320 XTEN 10mm duty pistol; the M17 and M18 duty pistols, both of which are 9mm; the P320 MAX competition pistol; the P320 Spectre Comp pistol; and the P210 Target and P226 Pro-Cut, both of which are competition as well.
The P938 Legion and the P365XL Spectre Comp were both at the event for attendees to shoot as well, as was the P210 Carry and the P229 Legion Compact SAO RXP.
The P322 .22LR and the P322LR suppressed drew big crowds, as plinking never gets old.
There were numerous other Sig Sauer handguns laid out on tables for attendees to shoot, too, and the lines never got short when it came to the chance to shoot a SIG MCX, the SIG Cross rifle, and the MPX carbine, among others.
Mossberg also took part in SIG Freedom Days, highlighting Mossberg shotguns. And Hogue was there showing their newest knives, pistol grips, and other products, as were Viking Tactics, 5.11 Tactical, Fieldcraft Survival, and others.
Trainer Justin Melnick from the television show Seal Team was also on hand, partnering with his dog Pepper to show attendees how a protection operates in the field.
There was constant gunfire in the background as we walked from station to station at the event and the gunfire did not bother us. In fact, it was the sound of freedom.

The WHO is warning that summer festivals and mass gatherings could accelerate the spread of monkeypox in the first indication that health technocrats may once again attempt to impose restrictions in the name of stopping the spread of a virus.
Monkeypox cases in the UK, where the virus first arrived thanks to someone traveling back from Nigeria, have more than doubled, it was revealed earlier today.
At least nine other countries around the world have also reported suspected cases of the virus, which can cause severe illness in young children, pregnant women, and individuals who are immunocompromised.
Clusters of cases have been observed amongst homosexual men, who are more at risk of catching the virus from sexual partners.
According to Sky News, “Exactly what is driving the UK’s largest outbreak is a mystery,” especially as health experts previously asserted that monkeypox wasn’t very transmissible amongst humans, with some speculating it has mutated.
Now the World Health Organization is warning that summer festivals and mass gatherings could accelerate the spread of monkeypox.
“As we enter the summer season in the European region, with mass gatherings, festivals and parties, I am concerned that transmission could accelerate, as the cases currently being detected are among those engaging in sexual activity, and the symptoms are unfamiliar to many,” said Dr Hans Kluge, WHO regional director for Europe.
The virus is also spreading at the same time the WHO is preparing to vote on an international pandemic treaty and amendments to the International Health Regulations (2005).
According to critics, the treaty would, “give the unelected WHO greater control of national emergency healthcare decisions and new powers to push vaccine passports, global surveillance, and “global coordinated actions” that address “misinformation” whenever it declares a “health emergency.”
Of course, all those fears will naturally be dismissed as “misinformation” by WHO-aligned ‘fact checkers’ in due course.
As we document in the video below, the Nigerian CDC is urging its citizens to stop eating ‘bush meat’ – which includes monkeys and rats – in order to halt the spread of the virus.
The NHS in the UK has also posted a message on its website urging people to not touch or consume ‘bush meat’, which is available on the black market in ethnically diverse areas of London.
