I haven't followed this saga super closely, but I've read a little. Here is my uneducated prognostication of whats happening.

I think the safety lock is getting disengaged by jostling as the report has shown. I think the sears are releasing because of poor machining, combined with guys drawing their pistols and taking the trigger to the wall (as training says you should), but not firing. Possibly, this is reducing sear engagment on poorly-machined sears, which later causes a sear to randomly release. What I don't get is why the secondary sear notch doesn't catch the striker in those situations.

Most likely because they did not bother analyzing the dynamic behavior of the the fire control parts. The report identified sear bounce through high speed photography. That should have been fixed long before releasing the product to market. But it was not and most likely they also did not check whether deformed first engagement surfaces can kick the sear away from the striker to the point that the second notch has nothing to grab. Or, after slipping off the first notch, the sear contacts the striker, bounces off and again the second notch misses the striker.

There are many items in the fire control group that scream "amateur" (the way they tried and failed to capture the striker safety spring) or "cheapskate" (3rd world MIM garbage) or a mix of both. On top of this, you have multiple undocumented parts revisions, parts without numbers to assess their compatibility, etc.

SIG, once synonymous with sound engineering and uncompromising quality, now looks more like the Boeing of the firearms industry.

Yes sir!
Nothing has changed since I got both in Jan of 2025.

Garmin Software version 2.14 Host: 2.14(b32bf72)

Sig kil 10K gen 2
Firmware Version: 44.024
FPGA Version : 0

Really hope the Update you spoke about a month of two ago is about to be release and we will all be happy with DOF. I can live without a kestrel and LRF connected at the same time.

Thank you for posting Cynical. What cartridge are you going to be shooting them from? Keep us posted on your results. I'm glad to see that the lapuas are actually a little shorter in overall length than the berger. I'm curoius what Bryan Litz gets for a BC when he tests these. Seems most bullets he tests actually have a lower bc than what the manufacturer advertises, except for the Hornady Atips, which he reports having a higer bc than advertised.

Also, can anyone explain the difference in the BC's between the berger 144 lrht and this lapua 144 Max RT?
Berger 144 G1 .655, G7.336
Lapua 144 G1 .670, G7 .335

How come the lapua has a higher G1 BC but a lower G7 BC than the berger?

Do you have a LRF and a kestrel connected at the same time to the 901? If so, there is a huge memory leak on the Garmin IMO. It is still there in the July 3rd FW update. When I have both devices connected to the 901 in the following way: Sig 10k Gen 2 connected to AB, Kestrel elite connected to other, ENV set to AUTO. If you let the 901 run a couple cycles in this configuration. The Garmin will stop responding and will reboot. Doesn't take very long when you ranging targets on the target card. Theory I have is a memory leak in the BT connections handling for two devices or could be in the 901s timer to pull data from the Kestrel when set to AUTO etc. The work around I have done is to connect the kestrel to other and get env updates. Disconnect from the Kestrel and connect to the Sig 10Ks. 901 functions perfectly when only connected to one device at a time no matter the settings.

If this isn't your case the FW may have some trash data... I would try a hard reset. Turn the unit off. Hold down the power, down, up at the same time. When you see the Garmin logo release just the power, When you hear the beep release just the down. Then release the last with the last beep.

Hope this helps.

Lastly! Please Garmin/Sig fix the DOF on the 10K Gen 2! I know Garmin has stated that anything on the AB API will be shown and used on the 901. The Sig 10Ks will send DOF to ABQ when in BDX-Internal Mode. The bug has to be in BDX-External Mode where maybe Sig is not send DOF to the AB API. This should be simple to see and fix in a unit test. I would love to debug and correct both these two big issues that drive me crazy and hold the 901 back from being elite!

Have you tried updating your Sig with the BDX app?

Also have you tried updating the Foretrex with Garmin Express?

From my understanding, Horner is still employed just not team principal any longer. And if they will bring Flavio back, there's no way Horner isn't team principal of another team next season. Rumors are that Ferrari isn't happy w/ Fred, although I really like Fred, and Horner may be going to Ferrari. But other than Red Bull, Mercedes, and McLaren, any team is possible in my opinion.

Well, sadly, you do. We all do. Either directly of indirectly.

Maybe they aren’t bald, but you get the picture.

I also have both, this is my exact experience. I love both rifles, they are both outstanding. The only drawback with LMT is the fact that their are factory barrels don't tend to shoot as well as Geissele. I've only had 2 Geissele barrels, but I've had 5 factory LMT 5.56 barrels. 3 chrome lined and 2 factory stainless steel 5r barrels. The last Factory LMT stainless steel barrel was finally starting to shoot small after 150 rounds, I probably gave up on it a little too soon. I will reinstall it at some point and continue to work with it.

If precision beyond 100 yards is critical to you, Geissele factory rifle will probably be more accurate. However, you can have gunsmith D Wilson convert any barrel to work with lmt. That's what I did with a Bartlein barrel from Craddock Precision, and now it's the most accurate AR I've ever shot.

Both rifles run like a top, both are very high quality, the Geissele will have a better trigger, but the LMT axle trigger isn't bad compared to most other Factory rifles.

TLDR: A factory Geissele super duty rifle is the Easy Button

I also went the D Wilson Route for my LMTs. I still have the factory barrel on my 10.5 300blk though. DW does a spectacular job!

TLDW - regarding the reporting that Acosta said Epstein was IC and told to back off: Benz is saying the only discussion of this happens in the document to the right (which he says DOJ is camping on). He is further claiming the only narrative from the report is the footnote at the bottom. He wants the interview transcript - what did DOJ ask Acosta specifically, and maybe more importantly- what did they not ask?

It'll be interesting to see where this leads.....

Most of the people embracing the Muslims don't understand the Christian faith... or have chosen to ignore it as self-loathing leftists who worship at the alter of Lenin and the shining path he promises.
