With the production backlog that Sig Sauer has right now, I don't think that making a special run of 18" (or longer) barrels for just the Canadian market is a priority for them right now. Given Sig's track record with making a million different version's of their models we're pretty confident there will be other offering coming down the pipe in the future.

    Ty for that imperative info AR Team, looks like a pinned muzzle brake will be in order for the 16 .308.

    What problem will a pinned brake solve?

    Of course I know how to patch drywall.

    Sure, but it'll still arrive restricted, be sold restricted, and be registered restricted. Then the hassle and expense of changing it to non-restricted. I get the sentiment, but seems like a PITA.

    Well then wait who knows how long before SS decides to build a "Canadian " version. I wouldn't hold my breathe, lifes too short.

    Also according to irunguns, overall length via muzzle device pinning does not remedy the issue as it does in the US.

    Any pinned on or threaded devices, removable or not, do not add to the barrel length of a firearm.

    Not in Canada anyway.
