Why Sig Sauer Beat Out Glock For US Army Contract
Sig Sauer's P320 won the US Army's Modular Handgun System contract over Glock primarily due to a significantly lower bid price, exceeding $100 million less than Glock's proposal. The Army's requirements included no finger grooves, a flared magwell, and modularity, which both manufacturers addressed differently. The Sig M17 and M18 will replace the Beretta M9, with the 101st Airborne being the first unit to receive them.
