SIG MK25 Review:

UPDATE 12/17/2015 From RANA on M4Carbine.net
Latest update: the G19 will be integrated over the next 2 years to replace the SIG's. The SIGs will be around another 2 years in some capacity as each Team goes through a work up and receives extensive training with the G19 vs the P226 prior to deploying with it.

Which makes perfect sense.

When asked about delivery we have been told to "stand by."

WTBS there are a lot of interesting things coming down the pipeline and a lot of things going away because they just don't provide much relevance; or said items perform poorly in the field.

According to the Yankee Marshall the real reason the Navy picked the Glock is because it's a cheap gun. Seals are allowed to pick their own personal weapons for carry, and they often pick guns that are better than the Glock. So the default gun issued by the government to the Seals ends up collecting dust.

I have worked in the tactical community for over 11 years, I am not sure what occupation Yankee holds, however I have received exemplary training by various retired NSW individuals regarding CQB and Tac Medicine, where as usual we venture into firearms discussions. The Glock 19 and 17 were seeing routine, "adoption" far before the official stances were taken as we saw last year. A Delta medic told me face to face in a regional training class that he and nearly every guy in his unit chose Glocks for various reasons ranging from ease of parts acquisition, field maintenance, so on and so forth. All one really has to do now is see recent photographs of "in the field" or "in theatre" SF guys, MARSOC, NSW, DELTA and so on to see the overwhelming majority of secondary weapons are indeed now Glock 19 and 17. Our entire SWAT team transitioned to Glock over the last 2 years. That is my experience on this.

It's popular for a reason! Thanks for sharing

Yeah because the government always makes the best decisions ;)
