    I met Tim last year while I was working for Sig. He took the time out of his busy schedule to come over to me while his team of colleagues tried to rush him along. He told them to wait..... and came over and shook my hand chat it up and take a photo. He then later came up to me on the factory floor and gave me a fist bump just because lol. Must respect to you and all that you do 🤙

    I had the privilege of visiting SIG Sauer & Hammerlli at Rhine Falls near Zurich in 1992, as part of the Armourer's course SIG ran for UK. The UK MOD had purchased P226 & P228 pistols for SF use. We walked into their main manufacturing factory at Rhine Falls & it redefined what a tier 1 manufacturer should be like. The quality they were dedicated to achieving was beyond anything I had seen. They were making new SIG SG550 assault rifles for the Swiss Army while we were there and that alone was impressive. They had designed their own robotic CNC machines that ran all day and produced beautifully engineered parts for the SG550. Their cold hammer forging barrel machine took lumps of steel bar and handed back new barrels, that were rifled, chambered and profiled. They were using lasers to wash over the parts and check they were correct. - utterly amazing. The place was clean and the machine waste - swarf, coolant & dust - was all collected and removed. You could almost eat of the machines they were so clean.
    I imagine their facility in the US are just like the ones we saw in Switzerland. It's no wonder they won the contract to supply the US Government!

    Sig Sauer, the Microsoft of the gun industry. Get it out to market, then fix it later. My MCX, P365 & P320 all had to go back to be fixed. I live about 8 miles from Sig HQ and it still took forever to get them back.

    The SIG M18 is produced directly to be used by the Navy and Air Force. Every Sentry on board a US Naval Ship is issued an M18, and if you are the overwatch, you are given an M4; there are 299 Naval War ships on a "deployable at any moment" status, if at a minimum, there are 5 (number is not exact) sentries on watch, that's 1495 M18s in a sailors holster. Every MA (MP) is given an M18; there are tens of thousands of M18s in use by Navy Sailors at this very moment.
