@obey Bad News About the Sig P211... "I've seen these guns beat like a Singaporean shoplifter..." TLDW: Addresses the 320 controversy, points out he's paid by TFB, not SIG, gun runs like a fancy 2011 but costs a lot less. |

I bought all this equipment. What do you mean that the dead AREN'T coming back to life?

They were originally designed for .45 ACP, they're expensive, and reliability is passable at best for range toy use after something like 30 years of messing with them trying to make them work. Most guns you own use MIM parts. The question is whether or not SIG is doing their part to make sure Sandeep is making these correctly. |

| This appears to be just a money grab by sig to get in on the 2011 craze if you already have a P320 and P320 mags. I'm slowly dumping all my Sigs since the next generation of buyers isnt hyped on hammer guns aside from a few here and there. Also, sig kind of lost me when it became about the P320 and turned itself into a lifestyle company that sells itself on being somekind of lifestyle rather than just a gun company. |

I'll add, I live in a ban state but already have tons of hi-cap glock mags, and if I get a 2011 that can take glock mags, it's more appealing. |

He's got that going for him. But even being outside of leviathan he has to chase the same hot stories to get clicks. Fyi 1911 syndicate is listed as leviathan here. https://www.leviathantribe.com/ Holy smokes that's a lot of channels. |

This might be the most retarded thing I have ever read. every company that makes and sells something is trying to grab money... it the whole fucking point of capitalism... |
