The most underrated AR 10 on the market, hands down. It shoots incredibly accurate out to 800 yrds, is always reliable and can handle both 7.62 x.51 or the hotter .308 cartridge. Incredible, incredible carbine !!
More like rifle lol
What ammo do you use? I love mine!!!
@@Cossack_Cobra SIG Ammo , but it shoots any ammo great

I wish Sig would make a 20” barrel for both the M400 and the 716i.
When I went to the gun store it was the only rifle I looked at, purchased immediately!! Came with a 4x-14x scope and I couldn’t pass it up. Great product!
Oh, boy...gonna have to have this one.
Me too
When The Zombies Come Knockin' - The Sig Will Do The Talkin'
You mean when the Russian or Chinese military invades.
Indian army just received about 10k of these . The total order is around 76k.
Per piece cost was around 950$
Indian forces have never used a direct gas impingement weapon on a mass or standard issue before.
Wonder if they all will be this model.
The heat,dust and extreme operating conditions in India will be very tough on any direct gas impingement weapon.
If you buy 10,000 they'll probably give you that price too.
Just picked one up yesterday on independence day. So far I like it.
Where did you buy it? I've been looking around and haven't found anything.
I want one so bad!
Thank you Sig for the 716i supplied to the Indian Army. Lovely rifle. Will really help our brave soldiers get a one up over China and Pakistan
Indian army use this rifle
Good quality powerful rifle
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Yeah man it's awesome
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Just got this rifle and very excited
*SIG SAUER, INC* Very nice, thank-you for taking the time to show us. God Bless.
incredibly reliable....thanks for pointing out piston rigs are not needed
.308 sig semi auto sporting rifle 👍🏻 fuck yes 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This was procured by Indian Army and is one of the main battle rifles.
Oooo - I want one!
mine did not come with the ambi charging handle or the yellow tread logo on the hand rail.
Very happy with this rifle
That’s a good price
Quick question, I ordered one of these yesterday and I got a confused answer if this rifle can shoot a .308, the guy at the store said this rifle is chambered in 7.62 and a .308 is more powerful and could damage the gun. When I told him everything I saw online said it could fire both a 7.62 and .308 he said another distributor had it in .308. I just want to make sure when I finally get to bring it home that it will handle a .308 just fine and I don’t have to worry thanks.
I would like to know this as well???
Yeah it should shoot both
308 and 7.62 x 51 is basically the same round now 7.62x39 is different that’s the ammo that aks typically use .
According to Sig, these (and all 716 series rifles) can safely and reliably shoot .308 win and 7.62 NATO ammunition
It's actually stamped on the gun "multi-calibre". So it must be OK for .308 & 7.62.
Amid the ongoing dispute with China over boundary issue, the Indian Army is going to place another order of 72,000 Sig 716 assault rifles from the United States.
The order for the second batch of the assault rifles would be coming after the first lot of 72,000 rifles, has already been delivered to the Army for use by troops in Northern Command and other operational areas.
Total 150,000 716i Tread 😎🇮🇳♥️🇺🇸
I own a 716I snakebite.....My biggest knock is Sig choosing a carbon steel barrel chambered in 7.62x51 instead of .308. You marketed a target/hunting barrel with a battle caliber chamber. The worst combo. Should have been a CMV barrel if your goal was anything but competition/hunting, and a .308 chamber if your goal was only competition/hunting.
He said 308...is it safe to shoot 308 through this 7.62 NATO barrel? I've always read that overpressure and thinner walled 308 is dangerous in a 7.62 designed barrel. Can this shoot both safely?
Yes it can.
This can safely shoot .308 Win. It is a higher pressure than standard 7.62 Nato, but the rule of thumb is to always check with the manufacturer, as you can't always rely on barrel markings. Sig has repeatedly verified that this rifle (and all 716 series) can safely and reliably shoot 308win as well as 7.62 NATO. The barrels are probably marked 7.62 NATO as they are being sold en mass on international military contracts where metric (and NATO standard cartridges) are used, i.e. India now placing their second order for select-fire 716i rifles (another 70,000 I believe?)
It is
I knew this day would come. Gotta get me one bb
INDIAN ARMY PURCHASED 1,45,000 of these guns.AFTER mounting scopes & optics these guns have been deployed on LAC against China.
INDIAN ARMY IS VERY HAPPY WITH Performance of THESE RIFLES.
This gun does NOT come with a Ambi Charging handle. I pointed this out to Sig after I purchased the gun. They then deleted this video off their web site and responded that "they" had already caught that and deleted the video. They said this AFTER I brought it up to them. Yet here is this video still up and people are still watching this thinking they are getting an ambi charging handle. I watched these videos prior to buying the gun. I was disappointed to see NO ambi charging handle. For a lefty, it matters. Then to find out that the charging handle is a proprietary item that cannot be replaced. Come on Sig, you can do better than this.
Can I put the 716i tread hand guard on my M400 tread?
So when is the 6.5 cm coming?? I already hve a regular 716
i think this same TREAD rifle indian army got. but contract was for G2 patrol varient..Hmmmmmm
@@paritoshchaudhary3664 sig m400 is chambered in 5 56 but this one 308. Basically i-tread is the civilian version for our available i .
Only problem is Sig doesn’t sell a five round magazine for the tread 716 i.🙁
These rifles are compatible with all SR25 style AR10 magazines, so you can purchase/use other 5 round mags. The Duramag steel 5-round SR25 308/7.62x51 mags should work just fine in these, being that they are SR25 mags. Hope this helps
If they would have announced this back in December I would have waited to by my 400 Tread for this
I got it with the Sierra Bluetooth scope
Iam Little confused here. This rifle it’s 7.62x51 and can shoot 308?
Yes, its a multicaliber rifle that runs .308 and 7.62x51
Seeing Tread And Indian Sig 716 both look quite similar But Why? Indian Buys 716G2 Variant Or Something Else Please Someone Answer me🙏
india army bought sig 716i tread . G2 pretty expensive almost double . but SIg716i tread is a direct impingement rather then Short stroke G2.
@@Ajstyle48 Indian army bought sig 716i not i-tread .
i-tread is for civies, available in semi auto as sports rifle and no low pictanny like our army .
Our army uses the full auto modified versions .
But internally they are very same .
And the stock is a little different .
Sig stands for
One thing incorrect here, the 716i does not come with that Ambi charging handle, you have to purchase that from sig.
I had to buy the charging handle separately!!!
Is an 18 inch 6.5 creedmoor version on the way?
Every time I google Sig 716 it comes up 716i, There is a difference between a 716 and a 716i right?
No
Indian Army : Write that down, write that down.
Can anyone tell me why I can pull the trigger with the Is bolt open with the block Safety block in ?
Nice to see this at this price, well done sig.
What is the difference (beyond caliber) between a AR-10 and AR-15 mechanically.
They’re basically the same thing other than caliber. From what I understand.
@@papark the AR10 generally has a little bit bigger/wider lower receiver body to fit a larger magazine due to the larger ammunition. This also causes it to weigh 1-2 pounds more.
Indian army purchased 146,000 sig 716i tread
If you don't already have it if you could make your version of the HK sp5
They have. It’s called the MPX 😎
How do you open and close the chamber? I can't figure it out.
Very nice but I think I have ideas for developing it
Over here you're saying its a carbon steel barrel but on your website it says its got a stainless steel barrel...which one is it?
Will sig release uppers? Since I belive it is there own upper?
Somone please do a side by side/heads up comparison of this and the Springfield Saint 308. I may be actually buying something that says sig on the side, never thought I would be saying that lol.
Youve been missing out. The 716, MCX, MPX, P320, P226 are all excellent.
@@JimmyZ408 don’t forget about the 365 series, the 229, and of course all the Legion series.
Put direct link to this product very very difficult))
AidarYes CZcams won't let them.
Now i understand why Indian army choose these instead of ak203
What is this actually chambered in?
All official documentation says 7.62 but all reviewers and even your CZcams description flip flops between the 2.
I want to know also. Just bought one but haven't got ammo for it yet
It is chambered in 7.62 x 51 Nato, but you can use .308 Win whitout a problem.
When is new air Gun coming out????
Indian army enjoy this rifle
How to fit new gas case ring in sig 716?
Oh, so it’s being marketed as a hunting rifle...
K.
So is it chambered in 7.62x51 NATO or .308 Win? Or does it run both?
I'd imagine it would run both
BOTH. YOU CAN ALSO BUY AN UPPER IN THE 6.5 CM FOR THIS RIFFLE
@@mrblackbangkok6507I know this is years old. But was it an Sig upper? I have a 716i and I want to make it 6.5 creedmoor.
It says MULTI on the lower. It will shoot either 7.62 or .308 . Hence, MULTI. Bought one last week. It is nice but trigger sucks.
I wonder what a good trigger replacement would be?
Is the gas block pinned?
4150 barrel?
I know you guys cant wait to hear this,,,,But were is the left hand model at ?
Why did they stop shipping them with the Ambi charging handle?
It's my understanding that they never did, that was stated as an error made in this video. There's some other comments on here about people addressing that to Sig, and they had stated that they realized that error in the video and said they had taken this video off their website
Not a fan of plastic polymer lower receivers on AR rifles unless they are internally reinforced with metal or metal chassis. Pistols have metal chassis so pins are not directly supported by a plastic frame.
Not sure if this was a general statement, or geared toward this rifle, but I own a 716i Tread, and can assure you that they do not have polymer lower receivers, they are metal
this 308 looks like a AR15 size. Am I right?
Dapeng Li it’s bigger than an AR-15 and heavier.
Yes, SR25 magazines, so it's AR-10 in size to fit .308W cartridges, which are up to 2.800" long.
Is it safe to fire 7.62x51mm NATO from this rifle?
Yeah poison round can be fired
Seems like a step backwards from the 716 piston. Please make 762 MCX
I believe the point was price. The direct impingement is cheaper to manufacture than gas piston 716's , hence the much lower MSRP on these 716i rifles. They wanted to open up the market to a wider customer base
Are you able to remove the yellow “tread” plates
Yes.
where's the guy with the fancy hipster moustache ?
You guys please do a 716 mcx virtus so we can get it in mass
The MCX is not legal in Mass! Mass has banned all AR style rifles.
This I been waiting for but I wish I had money for it so I can go hunting
Why are You saying it has a Ambi Charging handle??? I must have purchased a SPARE part model as it DOES NOT HAVE...... Send me that AMBI for mine and let me save $100
And he said ambi bolt catch. Mine dont have that
Looks like 417 from Rainbow Six:Siege, just saying, it's not modelled from, just a similarity.
I love guns, but there are so many variables to it though
Carbon barrel?
Barrel caliber? 7.62 NATO or 0.308?
Both
But does it run suppressed with the fixed block?
no.
@@bcjdwbiernfjherwfbowfib you have one / have tried?
@@kevingreif6681 yes. You would need a can with really low gas blowback. I would just put a SI opressor universal on it and call it good.
@@bcjdwbiernfjherwfbowfib what happened exactly when you tried to suppress it??
Does Sig make all their own parts including the receiver set?
yes
Swiss made barrel ambidextrous
Can this rifle handle .308 rounds consistently?
wtf is this question....
Yes, according to Sig, this rifle (and all 716 series rifles) can safely and reliably handle 308win and 7.62 NATO ammo
Nice, but I need a 20 inch free floating barrel.
$1299??!? More like $1699
18" 6.5 creedmoor please?!?!?!
Ohhhh i second and third that idea lol
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The one Indian Army has bought recently?
What is the weight of this rifle
8.5 lbs with magazine
Recoil is very much high
Interesting... now how about a 6.5CM caliber, with a 20'' bbl. yes?
Meh, $1299 for a DI AR in 7.62. Worth $500-600. Hard pass.
Ambi charging handle my ass….mine didn’t come with one.
Unfortunately it comes with a tiny ass charging handle.
It's plenty good enough, though. It works perfectly for me.
$1200 is economical? If I'm spending that kind of money I'll just another buy a BCM
Didn't know BCM made a 308 battle rifle.
Yeah, good luck finding a bcm AR10.
I was talking about spending that kind of money on a rifle in general, especially one that's not optioned like the Treads
@@ejmarkle60 the price for an AR10 is higher than an AR15.
You will be hard pressed to find an AR10 sub $1200 that isn't junk.
@@zososldier Again I was speaking in general. I have a few AR10 style rifles that I paid sub 1k for that are not junk and run flawlessly. Sig makes good products but some of there stuff is way over priced for what your getting
Is that god awful yellow tag easily removable?
yes ots just mounted on the mlok slot.
that yellow tag is the color of the dont tread on me flag.
i was dumb enough to buy a pistol from sig, got a factory defect that wont come apart and have been trying to get ahold of customer service for over a month. i would warn anyone from doing business with this company
What defect
It’s an LR-308 with Sig on the side. Nothing innovative or amazing, just another AR-10.
That is what I was thinking. They took their 716 piston gun and made it into a typical DI gun and now it's a "feature"?
You don't say...
First
Not worth it , just another cloned weapon. Your struggling in these days and still sucking off the old however , still great MP5's and hand guns .
Maybe you should go comment on an HK video since that's what you seem to be bitching about.
Lol. Complaining about the wrong company there my guy.
on .308
