SIG Sauer featured its M400 Tread rifle at the SIG Media Day early in 2019, an all-new platform that provides firearm enthusiasts with an easy, effective way to enhance and upgrade their rifle.

The SIG Sauer M400 Tread, unlike other base-model AR-15s, secures the barrel and handguard to the upper receiver with a completely different system that requires only two screws for assembly. For entry-level owners of this rifle, this makes changing out components like handguards and barrels even easier. Those who like to tinker with ARs won't have to have a collection of specialized tools to swap out components, making the already-accessible AR even easier to modify.

The company offers a number of accessories that are compatible with the new system, giving consumers the ability to swap out charging handles, fore-ends, hand stops, back-up sights, muzzle brakes and trigger units with common tools

For all the details on this easy-to-use platform, check out the video above and take a look at Shooting Illustrated's First Look here.

New Pistol Suppressors for 2025

We hear you (pun intended)! This year, we are reporting manufacturer’s sound-reduction rating where available. Now, not every manufacturer makes that information publicly available, so you’ll see a fair number of “N/As” where no decibel-reduction numbers were provided, but rest assured that, despite what you might think, the noise-reduction rating is one of the least important factors when choosing a new suppressor (more on that in a future article).
