An expansion is moving forward for the Hampden-Sydney shooting range. The college�s Board of Trustees late last week signed off on the project, giving it the final approval needed before construction could take place.
Part of what encouraged trustees was the alumni-led fundraising campaign, which collected $825,000 in the last few months. Also, school officials promised to use any funds remaining after construction to set up an endowment fund, which will help pay for the range�s ongoing operations and maintenance. Also, extra dollars will be set aside to help
support the college�s outdoor education program.

The Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled Tuesday the state�s ban on carrying switchblade knives violates the Second Amendment. The case is Commonwealth v. David E. Canjura.
Canjura was arrested on July 3, 2020, and a search of his person uncovered a knife �with a spring-assisted blade.� He was charged with �carrying a dangerous weapon,� among other charges, but challenged the constitutionality of the switchblade carry ban �in a pretrial motion to dismiss.� |

Of all the firsts in my life, one in particular not only ignited a deep-seated passion but also would be the beginnings of my career. I set out to purchase my first firearm years ago back home in the deep South. After weeks of scraping and saving at my summer job as a landscaper in the hot Alabama sun, I was determined to get my first rifle. I actually did not grow up with guns, as my mother did not want them in the house. But coming into manhood in the south, it was almost a rite of passage to get one�s first firearm.

The U.S. Army has been shopping for a new "Individual Assault Munition" for a couple of years, and a Swedish company with lots of experience in that sort of thing got the nod on Tuesday. Saab, which has its U.S. subsidiary in East Syracuse, New York, was awarded a $494,350,000 firm-fixed-price contract for the IAM program's XM919. The five-year award, issued by the Army Contracting Command in Newark, New Jersey, came after an open bidding process last October that saw three bids submitted.

TO REMEMBER |
| As nightfall does not come all at once, neither does oppression. In both instances, there is a twilight. And it is in such twilight that we all must be aware of change in the air, however slight, lest we become unwitting victims of the darkness. � Justice William O. Douglas, US Supreme Court (1939-75) |
