    While blaming cops is an attractive conclusion, I wouldn’t straight away give SIG the benefit of the doubt when they are basically saying “we investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing.” They have been very cagey about the whole affair from the beginning, which should be expected from a corporation on the brink of being liable of a catastrophic fuckup.

    Not only have they have sold hundreds of thousands if not millions of these pistols to the public, it has been adopted as the service pistol of every US military branch. If they lose a suit and are forced to start a recall, it could very possibly sink them as a company.

      It’s not just Sig saying that…

      No one, not even cops, can get stuff like this to replicate, even with the exact same guns that supposedly already did this.

      People have looked into this before this article was written
