Default RE: What's going on with Sig?

I can't predict the future, but sig is strong in belief, they never wanted to make money a first priority. Sure, all companies look at the bottom line, but sig does what people want and not what the bottom line needs. Because they realized a long time ago, if you do what you are passonate about, the money will follow. I would find it hard to believe that sig would exit the industry, but then again, I don't have a crystal ball so I can't say that for sure. So in the mean time, when I go to the LHS, I buy SIG hardware, sig kits and try to support them, I tell the hobby shop owner to order me something SIG just send a message. Every little bit helps, because if all the kit manufactures are gone, the ARF market will take the stage and charge what they want due to the fact that there will be no alternative except plans, that is if you can get a set of them, just look at goldberg, bought to dismantle the competition. I own a pristine bucker jungman NIB, so I know what we have lost over the years, along with the A&A kits, birdi speedster,MEN kits all sitting on my shelf. They are a reminder of a happier and more enjoyable time for not only me, but you too.
