Love the jab @ SIG.

[@SDevante]

I kept waiting… given the topic, I knew it was coming and it didn’t disappoint

[@armorers_wrench]

I appreciate what you dudes are doing. I also really love your podcast. It is very informative. I work in a similar industry(the auto industry) for a very well known companies R&D engineering firm that builds dies(production and prototype) and does high end CNC. I eventually want to transition into the firearms industry and I know how costly real engineering is and I can see why some companies forego the prototype process entirely. I'm glad you guys aren't doing that. Keep it real bros.

Dont forget the machinists who keep the engineers in line ! This is coming from a machinist, whom is currently in school for engineering ! Wish machinist would get more love for products being made... :( 😊

[@kevinbrittingham6774]

Or I wish all engineers could run machines…like ours. 🤷🏽‍♀️💅🏻

[@AlChemicalLife]

@kevinbrittingham6774 I agree 100% , there's nothing worse than an engineer who designs something that just can't be machined. Those who can are gold, IMO. I don't work in the gun industry, so I have no idea how it works on your guys' end, but on the aerospace and defense side, it's way too common of an issue to find an engineer who is too book smart and has never had time behind CAM and machines before. Keep up the good work! -Steven

Can the engineers design a 3 position stock…. Maybe even extend that grey bit that sits on top of the buffer tube further out?

@@kevinbrittingham6774well that’s two subjective reasonings. I get the weaker thing I’m sure you could prove it if you really wanted but Couldn’t someone Just hold the release button down until the stock is fully extended bypassing the 2nd position… all that’s adding is a pound or so of pressure holding a button as you’re pulling it out. I think you mean lack of convenience rather than slower cause I’m not sure how this be any slower since you’re slinging it all the way out still. A girl can dream though, maybe gen 3 badger can have a more usable stock 🤞Should do a “y Q” on the stock.

I don't understand this argument. Like even the sprinkler company I worked at had engineers. What major firearms company that is producing new products doesn't have engineers? You literally can't design or produce anything in a modern way without engineers. If they don't have them on staff full time they still have to acquire those services.

[@Michaeldpress14]

Most silencer companies don’t have actual engineers

[@chipsterb4946]

I think Kevin’s brain is trapped in AR world sometimes. Sure there are companies that make Mil-spec this and that for AR-15s that don’t need inside engineers (or at least think they don’t). Some AR consumers want everything for cheap and they end up getting badly made/badly designed parts. However, I am reasonably certain that Sig, Sako, Ruger, Beretta, and Benelli all employ engineers. Heck even Glock might have 1 or 2.

It took a room full of engineers to replace a perfectly good cheek weld with a shark fin that threatens your molars?
