The open tip match bullet (OTM) is primarily used as a target shooting ammo, hence the word “match” – but what is match ammo? There seems to be a massive debate about this particular term (OTM), because it comes across as a hollow point when it's technically not, and it can cause some confusion. The military can use it because it’s technically not a hollow point, but some hunters can’t because it is a hollow point. This is probably the most controversial term of any bullet currently in use today. |

The lead round nose bullet is probably what most people think of when they hear the word “bullet.” These bullets are great for multipurpose use – they're usually cheaper than other styles, feed well in a wide variety of weapons, deform on impact, and are very accurate. |

In a salute to the pistols SIG’s Custom Works created for the Old Guard, the new P320-M17 Ceremonial model has a commanding presence.
As previously reported by Guns.com, as an extension of SIG's Modular Handgun System program with the Army, the company crafted a series of handguns for the Sentinels over the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National. While the elite Sentinels carry an Army-issue M14, the NCO of the guard carries a sidearm to allow them to properly inspect the Sentinel's rifle, a post that has been manned for over a century.

TO REMEMBER |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
