Review of the NGSW

We’ve panned this gun as the wrong choice for all the wrong reasons, and I still believe that. However, Tim Harmsen apparently likes the gun a lot.

I found it interesting that every guntoober that reviewed the NGSW loved, loved, loved it. At least all the ones I saw. And now, it appears the program is imploding, at least according to Army Times. Who could have seen that coming?

I don’t just post stuff I happen to agree with. I post the good, bad and the ugly. I let y’all make the call, while I will certainly weigh in with my view.

Tim did not like the gun in earlier podcasts for good reason , then sig greased his palms. ( gave him money or guns) and he loves the gun. The gun weighs over ten pounds with optics and can. Rumor has it that sig greatly reduced the gas back to the user , but at the cost of reliability. Drop this gun in mud and it is finished.

I finally got a moment to watch the video and I’d say he didn’t really test the M7—he has the .308 version, not the 6.8×51. The military’s M7 isn’t ever going to be issued in .308, so testing with that round has limited applicability to what the military is going to be using. Even with that caveat, the rifle was achieving precision around 1.5–1.8 MOA with commercial ammo—not a very good showing for a modern rifle.
