Sig Sauer

[MajO]

I recently (two weeks ago) found out that Sig Sauer gives a significant discount to retired military, as well as AD military and law enforcement.

"SIG SAUER is proud to offer discounts to Law Enforcement and Military members on a wide range of our most popular duty-style pistols and rifles. Those who carry a firearm on duty as a public safety official or military member may qualify for our discount programs, through one of our SIG SAUER Law Enforcement Distributors (SLED).

Qualifying individuals:

•Active or Retired Law Enforcement with official agency credentials
•Court Officers with official agency credentials or official documentation
•State / County / City Coroners with official agency credentials or official documentation
•First Responders with current credentials or official documentation
•Active Duty Military with an active duty identification
•Retired Military with retired military identification
•Active Reservists with Military Identification
•Active National Guard with Military Identification
•NRA Certified Firearms Instructors with current certificate of training"

It would be nice if Dan Wesson, Springfield, Colt, or any other American manufacturer would give such a discount. It seems ironic to me that two German companies, Glock and Sig Sauer do.

It still makes it hard for me to justify the price difference for a Dan Wesson (Specialist), as I was planning to do, when I can get a Sig Sauer for close to$1000 less. I have also recently had excellent service from Sig's Customer Service. My 3 years old P238 was having FTF problems and, for the cost of shipping, Sig replaced everything you could in the pistol and one of my magazines-at no cost. I was blown away. And, it was all done within two weeks.

I hope that all is well with you.
