New Sig 716 built for CANSOFCOM

[MD Charlton]

Hey CGN,

We were at the Sig live fire demo today here in sunny Las Vegas, and though some of you may be interested in reading about the new 716 that has been build for the CANSOFCOM trails:

Before anyone asks, yes, we will be bringing this awesome rifle in.
No, we do not have pricing or delivery yet (should be this year).
No, the can is not included (or available to our civilian end users).
Yes, you will one day be able to own this amazing rifle!
Yes, it does shoot as well as the article claims (using Federal GMM ammo).

This new 716 is almost 2 lbs lighter than the original 716 DMR - which is quite a feat!

Anyway, enjoy the article and pics. Once we have more info, it will be posted here.

Regards,
MDC

Sure, I'd like to have an MPX too, and while we are at it, I'll take an MCX as well.

Nice to see that Canada is putting out the call for more advanced stuff.

Well damn, I wanna shoot that. I wanna shoot that bad, somewhere with at least 500m. Or anywhere, I just wanna shoot that.

Great to see our boys getting some nice gear! I see a new F1 ATACR 4-16 in the pics but I wonder what they will be running.

I remember the days when we didn't talk too much about what CANSOFCOM was looking at getting or have. Those were the days.
