Talk:SIG Sauer

message: I plan on citing the sources throughout this article to get rid of the flag.  I will be using the sig website as my main source just to site everything. I also belive that the history part could be split into multiple sections.  In my opinion I believe that there should a part dedicated to the history before Sig moved to the United States and a part dedicated to after their move. Some of my peers believe that the history section is kind of overwhelming with all the facts there so I think this could be solved with a split.  My main goal however will still be to make the page better.  I have added the logo to the page and wish to get rid of the flag and possibly make it easier for the reader to absorb the information.-— Preceding unsigned comment added by DPURDUEh (talk • contribs) 17:55, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Removed the reference to the P226 being adopted as the Mk24 Mod 0 as it appears incorrect. On the P226 page it notes that the 226 lost out to the 92F as the standard US military sidearm. Perhaps the poster was thinking of the Mk 23 Mod 0 (note that the mod denoted variants and 0 is simply the standard, Mk 23 
is the name), which the US SOCOM does make use of. However that's an H&K gun, not a Sig one. --Sycraft

*Support since I see many examples of it written without all caps. Although "Sauer" is a name and should not be in all caps, SIG is an abbreviation and maybe should be? What about "SIG Sauer"? Definitely not all in caps though. Callmederek (talk) 19:27, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

Wow, nobody noticed that the new name is still breaking MOS? That was stealthy, GTBacchus! But now it should be renamed to Sig Sauer, as originally suggested and as prescribed by MOS.  --91.10.10.224 (talk) 17:46, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Got that wrong, it was discussed, sorry GTBacchus! Still breaks MOS and must be renamed. MOS explicitly mentions this case, so unless someone comes up with a reason to contradict MOS here, it has to go.  --91.10.10.224 (talk) 17:48, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Discussion

message: In this list the ONLY handgun made by SIG is the model P210.  All the rest were designed and produced by Sig-Sauer.  The P210 lacks the design and features imparted to the P220 series by Sig's partnership with J.P. Sauer and Sohn.  Thge P210 was licensed from France in the 1940s and was based then on the French Petter-Browning locking mechanism.
The P220 series is a creation of Sig-Sauer and has an improved locking system, double action trigger and hammer decocking device that appear to have been from the Sauer 38H model. None of these features is on the P210.  The P220 series also use the "automatic" firing pin block safety which was found on Walther and Sauer pistols in the 30s.  The trigger pull of the P220 series is superior to that of the Walther which is considered the first truly commercially successful double/single action handgun.
Do not confuse SIG with Sig-Sauer, they are not the same.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Digitallymade (talk • contribs) 20:13, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

message: The listing of subsidiary companies of L&O Holdings on this page is inappropriate.  Each already has a page.  The information here, is redundant.Digitallymade (talk) 06:27, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removal of product listings that are not from Sig Sauer, Exeter, New Hampshire or Sig Sauer, Eckenrode, Germany Comment 

message: Listings of promotional products, not manufactured by Sig Sauer and sourced solely by advertisements and primary sources are promotional, and not in keeping with encyclopedic standards.  Just because a company sells a t-shirt or mug with their logo does not make it "their" product. Additionally, please read WP:BRD - It was Boldly entered, and has been Reverted.  Now is the time to Discuss - not to edit war over it. Scr★pIronIV 13:43, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure of all the items, but the list was over-broad. "Gifts" is not a reasonable entry. Further, a link to a retailer, , without any indication of what's being referenced, is unhelpful. Felsic2 (talk) 19:04, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I quite like the gifts and would appreciate knowing they are there.  I particularly like the Mouse pads.  Digitallymade (talk) 20:46, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Companies have their own websites for that sort of thing. A mouse pad isn't really encyclopedic, unless you have a neutral, reliable published source. - BilCat (talk) 20:56, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

  The Petter-Browning patent which was a refinement of the Browning Hi-Power (P35) which was John Moses Browning's last design which was created for, but not adopted, the French 1935 pistol.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The very first line of this page, is incorrect.  There never were more than 2 Sig-Sauer companies.  One is Sig-Sauer Inc.  The other was Sig-Sauer GMBH.  Sig-Sauer Germany, is no more.  It ceased operations.  There were objections to the sale by Sig-Sauer Germany of guns which were designed in the USA.  The few models that were still German made were not sold in the USA and made up very little volume.  Political forces causes the shut down.  The German Sig-Sauer was formed originally because of Swiss restrictions on export.  Later, to serve the US market Sigarms was established in the USA.  It was later renamed and moved to Exeter, NH where it is now.  Sig-Sauer Inc. supplies the US DOD with the Mk25, M17 and M18 handguns in addition to Optics and accessories. With the adoption of the M17/18 all other handguns used by the USA main service branches are being removed.
Please edit this page to show the correct information.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.174.157.74 (talk) 19:48, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
