#4: SIG SAUER Introduces the Next Generation of Suppressors
Born out of the current military requirements to deliver cutting-edge performance, SIG SAUER introduce the SLX and SLH series of suppressors in September. The advancement of the SLX and SLH series of suppressors was realized through the wholesale transition of the SIG SAUER product line to Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) resulting in the most innovative suppressor technology to date.


“The commercial launch of the SLX and SLH suppressors has been highly anticipated due to the fact that these are the suppressors we developed exclusively for our Next Generation Squad Weapons program submission,” said Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer, and Executive Vice President, Commercial Sales, SIG SAUER, Inc. “The DMLS manufacturing process of the SLX and SLH suppressors eliminates the drawbacks of welded baffles that historically presents design limitations for sound, flash, and the reduction of toxic fumes. Alternatively, the SLX and SLH suppressors are designed to not only withstand the rigors of the battlefield through their innovative monolithic design but are each optimized to dramatically reduce harmful toxic fumes and sound because of patented design features that can only be achieved through non-traditional manufacturing processes.”

The SIG SAUER SLX Series of suppressors are designed to drastically reduce toxic fume inhalation by the end-user and sound reduction and are available for 5.56 or 7.62 NATO calibers. The SLX suppressors feature a monolithic core construction in Inconel, an internal multi-flow path to exhaust gases at a higher rate resulting in lower toxic fume inhalation, a sound-reducing baffle design, a flash reducing end cap, and are available with either the new Clutch-Lock QD mounting system for easy install and removal that offers an intuitive tactile locking ring with infinite radial locking positions or direct thread.

The SIG SAUER SLH Series of suppressors are designed to provide the highest degree of sound reduction in both supersonic and subsonic ammunition and available for 7.62 NATO and 300BLK calibers. The SLH suppressors feature a monolithic core construction in either Inconel or Titanium, an internal multi-flow path to exhaust gases at a higher rate resulting in lower toxic fume inhalation, a sound-reducing baffle design, a flash reducing end cap, and are available with either the new Clutch-Lock QD mounting system for easy install and removal that offers an intuitive tactile locking ring with infinite radial locking positions or direct thread.

#3: SIG SAUER Hunter Games

Hosted at the Queen Mountain Guest Ranch in Evanston, Wyoming, June 13 – 15,  the event featured ten teams of three. Each team was comprised of one professional guide and two celebrity competitors with a variety of backgrounds and experiences to compete against each other for two days traversing the rugged Wyoming mountains, on a course of fire that started at 8,000 ft., elevated above 9,000 ft. and engaging targets at various distances.

#1: SIG SAUER Completes Final Delivery of Next Generation Squad Weapon System to U.S. Army
In February, SIG SAUER was proud to announce the final delivery of the Next Generation Squad Weapons (NGSW) systems to the U.S. Army, consisting of the revolutionary 6.8x51 hybrid ammunition, the NGSW-AR lightweight belt-fed machine gun, the NGSW-R rifle, and suppressors.  

“This historic moment is the culmination of an incredible collaboration between the U.S. Army and SIG. We commend Army leadership for having the vision to undertake this monumental procurement process and for remaining vigilant in their mission to bring a modern, transformational weapon system to the battlefield,” began Ron Cohen, President, and CEO of SIG SAUER. “Throughout the program, we have been given unprecedented access to the soldiers and Marines who will ultimately field these weapons.  These soldier touchpoint events have led to rapid advancements over the current weapons systems and resulted in our delivery of the most innovative Next Generation Squad Weapons system to the U.S. Army.”

In an exclusive video, President & CEO Ron Cohen highlights the U.S. Army’s Next Generation Squad Weapons (NGSW) Program. 

Each component of the SIG SAUER NGSW system offers significant advancements in battlefield weapons performance beginning with the SIG SAUER 6.8x51 Hybrid Ammunition - a lightweight cartridge designed to handle higher pressures resulting in increased velocity and terminal performance.  The SIG SAUER Lightweight Belt-Fed Machine Gun (NGSW-AR) doubles the effective range and is 40% lighter than the current M249 while maintaining the preferred belt-fed operation, with reduced felt recoil to increased accuracy.  The SIG SAUER Rifle (NGSW-R) is built on the foundation of the battle-tested MCX platform with the added firepower of the 6.8x51 round; both the NGSW-AR and NGSW-R feature familiar AR-style ambidextrous ergonomics designed for a seamless transition from the legacy weapons to the SIG NGSW system.  The final component of the system is the SIG SAUER Next Generation Suppressors for reduced sound signature.
