I purchased a sig 716 earlier on this year. I waited 7 months to receive it. Soon after my purchase i read that sig has obtained a multi million dollar contract with the Gov. I worried that now with this sick high demand has been put on sig. There will be some quality issuance issues. Sigs supply did not meet the demand. So i figured that they would be shipping out guns at a high rate. This rate would effect the quality of the guns.
My sig showed up and i noticed that it did not have the magpul stock and pistol grip on it. My theory on that is. Sig went the more affordable route and put their own stock on the gun so that they can ship out more product.
My sig was damaging the tip of the rounds as it would enter the barrel. picks below. I sent it back to sig and they stated that they fixed the fail to feed issue. I got the rifle back and now its a lot better but it still is damaging the tip of the bullet. Now the gun is going back a second time. I am a sig fan i own 3 sigs and i will continue to buy more. I am upset that this $2500 gun is having issues. Its a 1k yard gun and it should not be at this poor quality.
My suggestion is to feed a round into the chamber and then slowly manual eject the round and inspect the the tip of the bullet.
