I purchased a Sig 556 two and a half months ago.
The Weapon wouldnt zero at 25 yds it was 4 inches off and had no more adjustment on the sight left to bring it any further. I sent it back to Sig and called them after three weeks. They had not looked at it yet.
I got a call back a week later and found out the weapon was defective. I asked what was wrong with it and the C/S Supervisor at Sig "Scott" told me the weapon need to be replaced.
Apparently the barrel to reciever allignment was incorrect and this was diagnoised by the Gunsmith on hand and that is why it wouldn't shoot straight.
Well not shooting straight is about one of four problems I had with the rifle and why I sent it back in.
1) It wouldnt shoot straight.
2)The rear sight fell off the first time I fired it and would not stay on the rail unless it was locktited in place.
3) A mystery spring fell out of the buttstock,..I have no idea where it goes.
4) The folding stock would never lock in to the folding position.
Now it has been almost two months they have had the rifle, no replacement, no one can give me an estimate when it will be replaced and back in my hand.
They have sent me a sight, a redot to go on my new rifle; but not having that rifle it doesn't do me any good. Today they offered me a Sig 516 to replace the Sig Swat Patrol 556.
Is there ANY legal action I can take to get my money back?
I really have no confidence in Sig Sauer anymore and don't want a replacement rifle, I want my money back.
Thanks
