New Hampshire gunmaker Sig Sauer taking a 'STAND' with latest handgun

NEWINGTON - A new Sig Sauer handgun the company says honors veterans, first responders and the American flag, comes with "STAND" laser-engraved at the business end to "inspire patriotism," the firearms manufacturer says.

The 9mm P938 STAND also has a likeness of the American flag on the ejection port side and the custom black grips feature a flag in flight-embossed medallion.

"The STAND is the obvious choice to represent the heritage and tradition of American citizens who proudly stand for our great American flag," says Project Manager Paul Snyder in a marketing video.

Company officials say they teamed with United Sporting Companies to create the gun and a portion of the proceeds will be donated to Honored American Veterans Afield, an organization that works with wounded veterans and active-duty military personnel.
