Sig , which I am a major fan of as I own a LOT of their products, P220, P226, P239, P227, two AR pistols in 5.56 and 300blk etcetera made a major blunder IMO thinking Hillary was gonna win . They dumped a bunch of garbage on they’re customers by thinking the evil black rifles were gonna be banned and wanted to get some coin before Hillary did such.

The most recent purchase, a few months before the election, was the AR pistol in 300blk. Horrendous POS slapped together from every scrap, cheap, screwed up parts they could collective make money off of quick. Trigger was so bad everyone I showed it to thought the safety was still on., charging handle was dragging to the point it wouldn’t completely let the bolt go forward. The bolt components , cotter pin , etc were just the cheapest of cheap , real rough.

When I called customer service they started in on me with comments like “well those are mil-spec triggers and thats normal” . “Well there is gonna be a break
in period” . “Well YOU have to understand” Etcetera.

Having spare parts for the POS I replaced the trigger with a geissele SSG trigger, and AAC suppressed bolt carrier, JP enterprises buffer and spring and a Raptor charging handle. Best 800 dollar upper, lower, grip, barrel and arm brace money can buy from Sig that was the most unsafe, unusable piece of crap NIB I have ever seen them sell. Customer service sucked bad being the first and only time I’ve ever had to call em.

Basically rebuilt the damn thing before I put a round through it.

I’ve carried AR’s, M16’s, variants of since age 18 in my military career, private ownership, and issued as a contractor to today in my mid 60’s and never have seen such a piss poor product passed down the pipe from what had been till now a great manufacturer.

Carry a sig pistol daily as its old , quality , tested and trusted, Reliable.

But something is very wrong at Sig right now ..... trust of basic quality control is gone for me. Will never recommend them again as many of my local dealers are reporting multiple customers returning the pistols and AR’s for replacement or repair.

Old Sigs ..... great products, only one issue with em in past 30 years was my P220 broke a transfer bar under the right grip while I was trying some hot cor-bon 45 in it..... my fault as either cor-bon was too hot back in the day or a design flaw in the transfer bar . Our armorers, having never had to replace that many transfer bars, blamed the cor-bon ammo.

Hope they get they’re manufacturing and quality control poop proper before they issue to the troops.

My own opinion only based on decades of experience. Your mileage may vary......
