    Not sure where to post this, but Sig has issued a press release marking the delivery of their NGSW submission to the US Army. There is a great, must watch video attached to the article: https://www.sigsauer.com/press-relea...s-to-u-s-army/

    I just hope they offer all of these items to civilians, especially the suppressor designs.

    I think the NGSW is the only one that has a chance. There's no way in hell that the Army adopts that 6.8 magnum rifle cartridge to replace the 5.56.

    Isn't the entire SIG NGSW submission built around the SIG 6.8 cartridge? The SIG Cross bolt action is also being released in .277 Fury, which is the civilian version of the .MIL 6.8 NGSW round. It seems like SIG is all-in on their new cartridge and case design.

    I just don't see them adopting a round with 80,000 psi as a general issue round.

    I was talking about their whole Next Gen 6.8 assault rifle which is supposed to use the same .277 Fury round.
