Revision as of 14:42, 11 May 2014
NOTE: In the past, some IMFDB users have mis-spelled "SIG-Sauer" as "Sig Sauer". "Sig Sauer" is not the correct spelling; "SIG" is an acronym for Schweizerische Industrie Gesellschaft ("Swiss Industrial Society" in German), and thus, all three letters should be capitalized. Also, it is preferred that IMFDB users put a hyphen between "SIG" and "Sauer".
About
SIG-Sauer was formed in the late 1970's when Swiss weapons manufacturer SIG (Schweizerische Industrie Gesellschaft, or Swiss Industrial Company) partnered with the German firm Sauer & Son. The SIG-Sauer line of handguns began in 1975 with the SIG Sauer P220. Prior to World War II, Sauer had been primarily a maker of shotguns and hunting rifles. During the war, they produced a handgun, the Sauer 38H, but afterwards had retreated from this market. With SIG as their partner/owner, Sauer returned to the business of manufacturing handguns. American corporation Sterling Arms started to manufacture imported P230 in 1975 (whole two years before SIG-Sauer's own line started!), but exact number of guns manufactured is unknown and was probably very low. In 1985, after Sterling Arms departure from the market, SIGARMS Inc. was created as the American branch of SIG in Tysons Corner, Virginia to import the P220 and P230. In 1987 SIGARMS moved to Herndon, Virginia, and in 1990 moved to Exeter, New Hampshire to accommodate new manufacturing. SIGARMS, and its European sister companies, Sauer & Sohn, Blaser, Mauser Jagdwaffen GmbH and Swiss Arms were bought by Michael Lüke and Thomas Ortmeier in October, 2000. On October 1, 2007 SIGARMS officially changed their name to SIG Sauer Inc.
