Glock vs Sig: Army's MHS Pistol Program Blows Up In Their Face
Glock vs Sig: Army's MHS Pistol Program Blows Up In Their Face
The US Army did not conclude the testing laid out in the MHS RFP, and in doing so selected a winner prematurely after conducting a 12,500 round test. Because testing was not concluded, the Army does not know which pistol is the best one.
Also, for the same reason, maintenance schedules and spare parts packages cannot be developed for the handguns.
SIGâs Performance (sic) Verification Testing was conducted on the full-size pistol, with only 500 rounds through the compact variant.
No environmental/harsh conditions testing was conducted.
The 22,500 round Product Verification Test never took place.
The military could see issues with the pistol after adoption, which testing would have uncovered.
SIGâs price is likely unsustainable, and he is skeptical about their spare parts bid as they submitted two separate pistols.
There is a lawsuit out on SIG from Steyr regarding the pistolâs chassis design, which is likely to be decided in Steyrâs favor â royalties from a favorable decision for Steyr would cost SIG even more on price.
The Government selected for âvalueâ over âperformanceâ.
The Army has a responsibility to complete this test.
Itâs unfair to the companies who competed.
The US Army needs to provide the US serviceman with the finest weapon available, even if the weapon in question is just a pistol.
