Sig m11a1 lite primer strikes
I have a sig m11a1 that I sent back for the enhancement package. I use a combination of federal xm 882 and 124 go Winchester 4318 ammo to practice with. I seem to be having some lite primer strikes and a thus a failure to fire. The all go off with the second tap. Could something in the
Aep package cause this. I don’t remember an issue with fed hst ammo. I cleaned the firing pin channel as best I could but I am curious as what the experts think

I don't think so. Some lots of the 124 Grain NATO gave me light strikes with a P228 that I've since sold. Only ever occurred with that platform.

If you're not working for the military, with an issued DoD pistol, you do NOT have an M11. You might have a SIG P229 that has been labeled/marketed as an M11-A1. Even SIG-Sauer acknowledges that reality on their website. Wink

Yes it’s an m11a1.

Call SIG, tell them their AEP screwed up your gun, and get a shipping label. They own it until it's fixed, simple as that.

Can't a man call his gun what Sig stamped on the slide? I have a Sig 220 Scorpion, but it really isn't a real live scorpion... It does get the point across, and you can figure out what we're talking about.
