    What else besides the M17/M18 has Sig won recently? I must have missed a few. The sole-source ammo supply thing seems to be because they've worked out a good partnership with Winchester to help supplement their own ammo production. Not a terrible idea for either party to team up like this, and it seems to be working.

    This doesn't seem nearly as sketch as when HK was winning every competition they entered for several years, including the ones where they had to change the requirements in order to even let them take part.
    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.

    Pretty much everything. Go to SSD and type Sig in the search bar, it’s ridiculous.

    I just did, at least for the last year. Most of them seem to be P320/M17/M18 related adoptions, hardly surprising follow ons from the Army's selection. The rest are a mix of rifles, ammo, and optics. Most of the orders seem to be relatively small or for trials rather than full adoptions.

    Some of these are DoD contracts meant for foreign sales (2022). They’re also balls deep in the NGSW and NGSAR programs with the .277 Super Overmatch Ultra-Magnum, but we don’t know where those programs will go yet. And of course, this .338 machinegun.

    They’ve also been getting a lot of LE and foreign military contracts.
