Honestly sig has one of the poorer quality controls in my experience Plus lots of testing products on civilians and then just releasing a better version on their dime i don’t think they’ve dropped a single gun recently that hasn’t had a big recall
That place was a blast. I've been to a lot of gun factories where oil was just pooling on the floor and folks seemed like they were right out of a 1940s steel works newsreel but this place was hyper-modern.
You should take a trip over to Lewiston Idaho and take a tour of the Seekins Precision Headquarters. Get a free gift during the tour...can't say what it is tho!
Motivated people that are respected by management goes along way to producing any product. I’ve been in both environments, good and bad, hands downs the quality of the product is direct result of good managers and happy respected motivated people.
I’ve had different fire arms in the past and was fortunate to get a sp2022 at a good price, it’s my first sig and can’t be happier. I love their dedication to quality control including the new test fire standards from 8x11 to 3” circle. Thanks for the tour sincerely steven loriot
Makers of some very high quality and beautiful guns. I Love the Sig P226 X5 lineup, especially the Sig P226 X5 Legion. Loved seeing the plant tour. Keep up the great work.
So nice to see where my M18 comes from. I can't wait for it to be delivered in these next couple of days. I'm glad California decided to let it on the roster
Chris, thanks for your video. I hope Sig finally dealt with the earlier issues with the 22 LR P322. There appeared to be problems with the barrel not being fully finished. I just can't help but thinking how those P322 pistols could have made it through all those inspection checks and not have been detected.
great video! really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at the SIG Sauer factory. i have to say though, while the craftsmanship is impressive, i can't help but wonder if their focus on high-end products alienates some fans who might prefer more affordable options. it’d be interesting to see if they ever branch out into a wider price range for their audience.
Great video, really enjoyed the behind-the-scenes look at the SIG Sauer factory! It's fascinating to see how much precision goes into making these firearms. However, I can’t help but wonder if the emphasis on military and law enforcement contracts overshadows the potential for responsible civilian ownership. Shouldn’t there be more focus on educating people about safety and proper usage as well?
I have only one complaint about modern Sigs and that's the plastic box they come in. It's just enough to ship and store the gun in, and no better. I'd like it to be a better box, almost on the level of a Pelican case, that I could use as a transit case when travelling with firearms. A sturdy, lockable box that would not be easy to break into and wouild last for years and years if I used it regularly on the road. The box that came with my TISAS 1911 is much better than the box my Sig came with.
That would increase their costs significantly. They're about that bottom line, as most large-scale commercial companies are. All about that dollar bill.
Sig Sauer is by far my favorite Firearms since I have learned about the P226, but unfortunately I am a poor, and cannot afford anything SIG Sauer. if I could it would be the Virtus or the new Spear LT chambered in 5.56/223 oh and lets not forget about the P226
I love Sig. I have a 226 Legion, 365, 938, and a 238. All function perfectly all the time. I’m disappointed in their new 365 in 380 however. I wish they had gone a little smaller rather than use the 9mm frame size. Right now the Ruger LCP Max is the 380 carry to have…Sig needs to answer.
I just wanted to see the kimbler elves making these expensive good , i asked good store owner to see a rifle once the rifle was awesome looking it was honey badger for 1800.00 dollars , i said is made out of gold , he said look at the side it says sig its expensive but quality is worth it
I hope they move, maybe to the west, where people actually love guns, and company’s like that tbh, such a beautiful company place tbh, I wouldn’t mind having a job with sig
Lol, last 2 sigs I’ve bought have had a card claiming to include their new lube…. Yet there was absolutely no lube samples in the case😂 I’m not too upset, my p320 is over rated beside modularity but my p229 legion is the best gun I’ve shot.
Sawbone IOMC I guess you missed the part about products being made in three other states besides New Hampshire or when he said they always need more people because machines can't check the product. The robots just do a more precise job than the old machines and methods.
Ove been a SIGgan for years but I'm sad to say they've lost a customer with the attitude of the 320/375 issues. To carry my xcarry comfortably I want to ad the manual safety but they want $265plus the cost of a new grip module. Now add the recall on the rattler they refuse to even look at because it doesn't have a ssn. Duh it is a conversion kit to convert an AR. not happy customer. I'll be changing brands now...
Had a 220, 226, 229. Just wasn't enamored by them any more. Curio and Relics really. Like the 1911 and PPK. Safe guns and range toys. Not first choice go to war guns.
Lol meh, second A rights are well protected in this state, we have a conservative governor, tax free shopping and a few other bonuses. It's not that bad. Lived here my whole life. Could absolutely be a lot worse.
It's odd that Sig Sauer is in New Hampshire since it's a liberal state. You'd think they would be in a red blooded American state. It's only a matter of time before they move like Smith & Wesson did.
I don't understand how a company can have such great public relations and overall consensus about their product and yet they put out such a mediocre product at best and an awful hand grenade of a product that worst. The guy who left Kimber and destroyed that company quality came over to Sig few years ago and that's when all these problems started. The Fanboys of Sig worse than Glock. The German stuff is great but anything made in Exeter New Hampshire is a liability. 🤷
cavsh00ter Some how you missed all the folks that test shot and had their hands on the gun before it got boxed up. Haha. After all he did say they always need more people because machines can't check the product and that they have facilities in three other states for their products.
A problem literally no one can verify or recreate despite the 320 being one of the most popular pistols for a few years. Hundreds of thousands of them in America and people are concerned about cops negligently shooting themselves and claiming the gun just randomly went off by itself?😂
@@markcurry3083 Exactly. Folks forget about how Glock had to change their trigger just for the NYPD because they were not trained on striker pistols. It is easy for LEOs to bash SIG after their P320 trigger was fixed since it gave them an excuse for negligence even after the military had no more problems with it.
This is really impressive, especially the quality control, high tech machining, and positive people involved in the Sig process.
SIG is on fire.
Honestly sig has one of the poorer quality controls in my experience

I'm not a Sig Sauer fan boy but I've definitely been impressed with them over the last few years.
Sig Sauer has it all over the competition... QUALITY QUALITY QUALITY!!!!!!
hahahahahahaha no.
Fun Fact: Some of the CNC Machines are made by SW, or Schwäbische Werkzeugmaschinen, which was the former machine tool division of Heckler&Koch ;)
And Hass CNC the best CNC machines on the planet and happens to be made in USA

Great video. Around 75% of my firearms are classic P-series Sigs. The strength and accuracy is totally impressive.
Sig is one of the top brands I’m even interested in collecting. I LOVE my P-365!
Makers of some very high quality and beautiful guns. I Love the Sig P226 X5 lineup, especially the Sig P226 X5 Legion. Loved seeing the plant tour. Keep up the great work.
I love the several function checks of the firearms. 👌. Check, check, and check again. Very nice
So nice to see where my M18 comes from. I can't wait for it to be delivered in these next couple of days. I'm glad California decided to let it on the roster

Ive loved the P226 and even a few of the series ever since i first saw one and later issued with one years ago.
The p226 is one of the best pistols ever made. Fantastic firearm.
You know that Johny Cash song "One Piece at a Time".... yeah that's what it'd be like if I worked there 😁
Wow, impressive facility & great vid.

This is why I have 3 SIG firearms and looking for more
Love my M17 it’s one of the best in my collection
Nice COHERENT LASER MARKERS!!
Film the entire 320 production start to finish. Plus show where all of the parts come from (not Sig).
This has nothing to do with the video, but I am so glad i am not a manufacturing engineer anymore. I hated being around those loud machines
I own 2 Sig, a P229, and a P365. I love them. My P229 will shoot 3 calibers, .40SW, 9mm, and .357 Sig.
I love Sig. I have a 226 Legion, 365, 938, and a 238. All function perfectly all the time.

Incredible
Thank you
5:38, why did you edit out the Schmidt press logo's, I know one is an 11f and the bigger one is 13f!!!
Where is the section that makes the Spear LT. Tell them to get to work making more
Right? Totally understand.
nice, nice, very nice ! then why do all springs on all models sound like a pen ?! o.0
Very impressive
Being a Pakistani I love AK 47 your weapon is very expensive ya your M4 is so good rifle I like it so much
I love AK47 very reliable and tough. Pakistan has own gun shops good prices. Peace ✌️ from the 🇺🇸
😂😂 Bhikaristan We Are Buying New Sig 716 🔫🇮🇳😎☠️
@@thenotoriousvlog5986 yes AK 47 very simple in function compar to M4 AK 47 very good looking than M4
All gun factories seem the same, they take a piece of bar stock, stick it into a CNC mill and assembled the machined bits.
I own one of the weird ones. Part made here in the USA, part made in Germany. Both ties by the serial number.
Nice looking good ❤
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it George.
This factory is distinguished and I am from Yemen, I want to make a deal with the factory without dealers and competitors
I just wanted to see the kimbler elves making these expensive good , i asked good store owner to see a rifle once the rifle was awesome looking it was honey badger for 1800.00 dollars , i said is made out of gold , he said look at the side it says sig its expensive but quality is worth it
Well , that's great ! My New Sig Rattler 300 Block out , $2800 firearm would not fire ! Waiting on a replacement 🙄
I hope they move, maybe to the west, where people actually love guns, and company’s like that tbh, such a beautiful company place tbh, I wouldn’t mind having a job with sig
I wonder which one of them sent me a scratched slide. Lol
Them dirty bastards
IDK WHY THEY DON'T MAKE A 357 carbine or a rifle WHAT A GREAT ROUND
Lol, last 2 sigs I’ve bought have had a card claiming to include their new lube…. Yet there was absolutely no lube samples in the case😂 I’m not too upset, my p320 is over rated beside modularity but my p229 legion is the best gun I’ve shot.
First off in the video...he so very proud to put people out of work by replacing them with robots
Sawbone IOMC I guess you missed the part about products being made in three other states besides New Hampshire or when he said they always need more people because machines can't check the product. The robots just do a more precise job than the old machines and methods.
I thought Sig Sauer moved down to like Tennessee or Alabama? something like that 🤔
I love Sig guns
Does the order go to your house
Lol... Are you kidding me?
I have a 365 and it rusts pretty quickly. I live near the sea, maybe that's why.
@@Rico-uv5ew How can I show you? It is rusting near the sight, near the magazine release button and on the magazine itself

It is funny I hear so many people say sigs QC is laking. They should watch this video and STHU.

👍👍
It doesn’t seem like Sig puts much value in “Hand Made”
moreme40 Hand fitted like a Bersa they are not. Haha. But the high quality control and high grade materials of SIG is very good.
Get over it

Great tour. Chris, stop being such a doofus.
I'll try, but it is hard.

if you consider P226 and P229 as ancient relics unfitted for combats, you're no different from a thick piece of dense concrete.
Yeah, them relic Navy SEALs are the definition of wannabee warriors. Who are THEY to tell the rest of us what's a good sidearm.
@@lonebeagle just used to plastic guns. Glock, HK, M&P, XD, etc. The metal Sigs are like CZ and Browning hi power or those older SW Automatics.
@@hoppinggnomethe4154 Considering that the SIG P226 beat the Beretta 92 in military trials for the M9 but the Beretta won because it was cheaper. Yes.
