The SIG is US made... Not sure how this turned into a "buy American" topic anyhow...

The fact is that you should focus on quality, not where a product is made.

From what I remember reading when these lawsuits hit, the Adams suit was based on the design of the gas nozzle being attached to a plug that was removable through the front of the gas block.

LWRC sued over the BCG design.

Last time I heard Sig is a German company. All things being equal, I just like to keep my money in this country.

Looks to me like when the LWRC patent was filed they were still using their 2-piece bolt carrier. See here for info:
