Sig today suffers from the same issues Kimber did under Cohens management. They are all about moving the metal. They need to produce as many pistols, as fast and as cheaply as possible.
This is why they went to all milled stainless slides.
This is why they use MIM in the P series pistols now.
This is why the copied a flawed Colt Mustang design and called it the P238 in order hit a price point in the competitive 380 auto market.
This is why they cheapened the original GSR which was made from premium parts. Caspian slides and frames with Storm Lake barrels to a run the of the mill production 1911 made from in house Sig parts.
This is why we got a bastardized version of the 55X series rifle with cheap Chinese red dot scopes and no irons at all let alone a diopter sight without paying a huge premium.
This is why we got a Mosquito made of pot metal that sometimes works if you shoot the most expensive 22LR in the market with the right spring and the wind is blowing in the right direction.
These are just some of the examples. I will not even mention the issues P250 which IMHO is a total dud. The growth at Sig under Cohen has taken a company that was famous for its rock solid reliable production of proven designs to a company more interested in bling models, special editions and moving tons of metal. They produce way too many pistol lines today without the precision that built the Sig reputation.
They are still good pistols. The numbers are still way in your favor that you will get a good gun out of Sig. I believe that their greatest folly is that they have not grown customer service at the same rate as production. They are making more guns but still attempting to deal with the bad apples produced with the the same about of people. Double your production and even if you keep the % defect rate the same you are still producing double the amount of defective pistols as before. If you had 10 people to handle the old volume 10 people is not going to cut it once you have doubled the production.
IMHO the chances of getting a defective Sig has more than doubled since the majority of production has moved to the US. IMHO the old number might have been .25%. Today it is closer to 1%. When you look at the price of a new P series pistol being over $800 with cheaper materials and a higher chance of defect it is hard to justify buying one IMHO especially with all the LNIB used pistols already in the market place.
