Sure, there are loads of guns and accessories at SIG Range Day but the Wall Of Donuts remains a favorite.
SIG Range Day 20 – Wall Of Donuts
January 20th, 2020SIG Range Day – TYR Tactical Armors Hendrick Motor Sports STEED
January 20th, 2020Hendrick Motor Sports Silent Tactical Energy Enhanced Dismount, in my opinion the most impressive improvement to small unit mobility since the mule, is now even better.
The STEED remains capable of improving mobility and load carriage for the squad. This electric cart has zero emissions and can carry up to 500 lbs over complex terrain at speeds from 0-6.5 mph. STEED will even climb stairs and can be used in water.
But now it is armored thanks to TYR Tactical. They’ve armored the motor underneath and developed a kit to mount a level IV Ballistic Shield. The shield adds 43 lbs to the front of the STEED which they’ve offset with a soft container for ammo crates at the other end.
SIG Range Day 20 – Blackpoint
January 19th, 2020Blackpoint continues their relationships with SIG SAUER.
For example, they offer both inside and outside the waistband holsters for the P365 as well as for pistols equipped with the Foxtrot and Lima laser and light modules.
SIG Range Day 20 – Smart Shooter
January 19th, 2020
Israeli company Smart Shooter demonstrates their SMASH system mounted to a SIG M400 carbine. SMASH is a small arms fire control system that combines a thermal imager and algorithms to acquire a target, lock on to it and then effectively engage it. Once the target is selected and locked, you keep it in your sight picture and depress the trigger. The weapon will knot engage when a proper firing solution is found. Using it, I was able to easily engage moving targets out to 200 meters.
Seen here is the trainer version on a generic stick which is used to show new shooters how to use the system. Thanks to the thermal camera, it can be used in day or night. Additionally, the sight picture can be shared with others via C4 systems.
The system can be used to designate and Additionally, SMASH has been used to engage drones with M4 carbines.
SIG CEO Ron Cohen told me that they are going to work with Smart Shooter in the future and introduce some of their technology into the system such as BDX.
This system makes the average shooter more accurate and can be used for individual precision shots out to 300m. Naturally, you don’t have to use it if you need to engage multiple targets at once.
SIG Range Day 20 – Tread 716 DI
January 19th, 2020SIG has introduced a Direct Impingement version of their 716 rifle in .308 to the Tread line.
It is very similar to the SIG rifle selected by the Indian Army last year.
One notable exception is the lack of a bayonet adapter on the rail.
It includes a Adjustable Magpul SLK Stock, Free-Floating M-LOK Handguard, 16” Precision Barrel and Ambidextrous Controls.

The cartridge case is a new 3-piece design with stainless steel head and brass body with an aluminum washer to hold the pieces together.
