After wasting $300 on match ammo testing it I sent it back to SIG and they said they drilled the barrel wrong or some thing like that. They replaced it. It shot nato ammo like crap, 10" groups and match ammo was around 6-7". When they replaced the barrel only the most expensive ammo shot around 3" with a 24X scope. I sold it when it had more problems later.
SIG's quality control on these has really been disappointing. Too many lemons are slipping through, and SIG just doesn't seem serious about making this into a SERIOUS fighting carbine. What a shame. There's too many other quality rifles at the price point for me to ever consider gambling on one of these. And basically every part on an AR platform can be bought online and replaced yourself. My BCM runs like a top, and has made it through two carbine classes without a hiccup. Tough as nails...
yep, I have never owned a AR15(M4) that didn't shoot very well. The SIG though is supposed to shoot better but mine didn't. I hope when I get it back they have the problem figured out.
well its the full metal black but the battery cover is dark green and the hand grip, i just had to strip it down to the cogs coz it was jammed so i oiled it all up and now its much better, verty heavy and powerfull.
how had it been holding up??

SIG sent my rifle back and it shoots way better then it did. They had to replace the barrel. Shoots under 2" at 100 yards.
