SIG sues ATF
NEWINGTON — Gun maker Sig Sauer has filed a civil suit against the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives claiming the federal agency wrongfully classified a “muzzle brake” Sig designed to reduce recoil, as an item “intended only for use” when making a silencer.
Sig claims that gun silencers are “subject to burdensome legal requirements” and by calling its muzzle brake a part for a silencer, the federal agency is subjecting it to “economic injury.”

I hope SIG jumps in their chili.

I hope their chili lands in their lap, with lots of habanero peppers in it. Burn, you assholes, burn.

Re: SIG sues ATF
This article states that sig says you could buy a shroud for the break on a form 4 that would slide over the break and make it a suppressor. If that's true then that could possibly be what started this

Re: SIG sues ATF
I'm surprised you guys haven't heard about this gun. It's great. I've heard the shroud can be sent to you for free once you show sig a tax stamp. I have also heard the pistol version will be upgraded to rifle stock for free once you show sig an sbr tax stamp.

Re: SIG sues ATF
If someone wanted an unregistered illegal suppressor, it can easily be done, that is if they wanted to spend 10+ years in a concrete and metal room.
The Sig suppressor doesn't even look like it would silence a fart.
