    How Sig Sauer Makes the P226

    Youtube video link

    Thought it might interest some here. I will probably make a few more videos about Sig using other footage. All of this stuff will be posted on The Firearm Blog, if you're interested.

    Thanks for posting that link. It´s interesting to see some of the steps involved in manufacturing my favorite pistols (the P226 & 229)

    Interesting. But they left out the part where they buy the cheapest MIM parts they can find.

    Fascinating. I should have been an engineer.

    Well, they only talked about making the slides frames and barrels.

    I couldn't help it believe that was SIG Germany. Didn't anyone notice the blonde guy?

    Interesting video. I think they should not have repeatedly emphasized how efficient the process is, and how few machining operations are required, given what SIG charges for their guns these days.
