Yeah. It's an early prototype. There's some things I'd like to change but I have to work around my builder who had health issues.

I see covered up non-molle molle. Is this intended to be a hybrid with soft body armor and plate carry capability?

If soft body, are you using UHWMPE or woven Kevlar?

Curious.

It's a hybrid. I'm using old
Soft armor inserts. Not sure what material.

Now it's mostly good although picky with some ammo (PCI) with the can hanging off the end. Won't cycle old M80 ball Greek reliably in any config. Just need to keep banging rounds through it and keep the chamber clean.

Hmmm.

Houston, we may have a problem.

I haven't really done much with this rifle besides shoot it lately, but was giving it some love tonight while installing the new SAPR and also thinking about the fickleness with some ammo when running suppressed. I'm a little OCD at times and it was bugging me again after posting about it earlier.

I notice the receiver has some pretty heavy fresh dings where it appears the BCG has slammed into the receiver. I don't recall these relief cuts being there beside the others.

Worked up a little google-fu and found this (his pic below): https://www.ar15.com/archive/topic.h...&f=66&t=620319

Same issue - fine until he started running suppressed. Seems this may be going back to Sig once again. Sounds like they had been sending out replacement (updated) rifles with larger relief cuts, H2 buffers, and a redesigned gas block. We'll see if their customer service lives up to my expectations that they make it right.

fustrating is an understatement. I lucked out with a swat patrol, ran like a top. IF Sig doesn't do anything, you can cut those reliefs , replace buffer. The gas block?? Bummer on the rifle.

They updated the gas block and op rod and bolt/bcg too. Mostly cosmetic and a larger button on the gas block. Double ejectors on the bolt! Seems the op rod support sleeve is different. I think the gun is currently also a bit overgassed when suppressed, even properly set to suppressed.
