New Sig Sauer product...

Why, why would they do this? Maybe I’m missing something but I just don’t get what practicality it serves

And I’m sure Anytown and Moms demand will loose there s&$t. Their press release will be coming shortly

My guess is that it is a proof of principle design to show they have the capability to do it. Sig provides sidearms for the army and marines and soon to be providing the xm7 (i believe that’s the name) and the heavier xm250 to the army. Sig is saying, “hey, you want a drone gun too? If so, we can do it.”
This is my only reasonable explanantion.

It has to be a directed to the Military market. I know my home state of Indiana as several other states it is illegal to arm a drone.

wouldn't surprise me if terrorists are already doing this, as well as the gang-bangers......so what else really is..."new"..??

for the "law abiding people", it's illegal........all others can do it with no repercussions.

But is there a Legion version?

And does it come with a coin?

SIG been showing this kind of stuff for a couple years already, they made a whole set of videos on it, vehicles with automated turrets... They acquired General Robotics, that's why they're showing up at these trade shows like AUSA with these kinds of contraptions, looking for funding.

They've had the land version DOGO for 3-4 years already, so why not an air version, I want to see the sea version, that's got to be pretty cool

ISIS was using drones to drop Bad Mitten Birdies filled with explosives several years ago in Syria with success. A I’m sure it’s only evolved.

This.

It's not 'cutting edge' tech by any means.

You're right, it looks ghetto and put together at the last minute.
They also brought this thing to AUSA 2023
