Posvar Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 That’s great. Now you have me thinking of doing it. Can’t wait to see pics. Did you have to pay any shipping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have to pay any shipping? Nope, they sent a return label. The only problem is that they won't allow the returned package to be held at the FedEx office to pick up, so I'll need to arrange someone to be there on Monday.

George16 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 That’s nice. Yup, Sig pays for the Fedex 2 day shipping both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eboadway Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 After the call to CS where they suggested Cat Crap, I sent an email and Amy Lord asked for more details. I’m hopeful she will help resolve the issue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akkid17 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Same here, sent it Monday and it’ll be back this upcoming Monday, 2 day fedex both ways and goodbye LCI Barrel! Pretty stoked they worked so fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaep1911 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Nice! By the way, how did you guys challenge SIG to get the replacement agreed?? Just told them the problem with the gas hitting the lens through the LCI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eboadway Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 My 2 are queued up to go back. Very grateful they are handling this quickly and fairly painlessly. They asked for serial number, rounds shot and a pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpm2953 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 (edited) I called today and got approval to send mine back to swap the barrel to a non-LCI. I just bought it yesterday and haven’t fired a single round through it. Although, I have 2 big matches coming up the next two weekends so I probably won’t send it back til after that. This will be my back up gun. Edited September 14, 2019 by jpm2953 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akkid17 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Serial number, round count and what type of ammo I was using, I also told the rep that I was getting an obvious line on the glass around the 100-150 mark and that was it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to do all true side by side to see how much better the GGI would be or if any GGI parts can further improve the Legion. Have you had a chance to compare the Legion trigger to the Legion with a Grey Guns competition trigger kit or other Grey Gun parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done the comparison. The legion trigger is ~75% as good as the x5 with gg trigger. Albeit, my x5 gg trigger has thousands of rounds through it, my legion only has a couple hundred i suspect after some break in the legion trigger will reduce in pull a little bit. Honestly, when it comes to running both triggers in a match, the difference wont matter for match placenent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be here on Monday. That will be exactly one week out of my hands...outstanding turnaround! I'll take some pics on Monday... Is yours back yet? I just dropped one, keeping the other until the first is back, one week would be great! I wonder if they'll start shipping non-lci barrels, although we are probably in the minority on this.

Mine just showed back up a few minutes ago. It was exactly one week since I dropped it off at FedEx. The new barrel looks just like a standard X5 new-style (black) barrel. I'll find out how it shoots later this afternoon. Edited September 16, 2019 by BillR1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PewPewJohnson87 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Are they requesting that you send the entire gun including the FCU, or do they just want the top end? Are you guys shipping it with or without you optics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akkid17 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Got mine back, sent it in with the optic and the whole gun and mags per their request. They send it back to the customer because you already own the gun and have done the 4473 for the transfer so it doesn’t need to be sent to a FFL unless you want it to be.

jaep1911 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 My Legion barrel is very sloppy/ loose in the Legion slide, compared to my regular x-five, which is very tight fit. Have you guys noticed any change to the fit before and after the barrel exchange? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eboadway Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 No, you can ship to and from the manufacturer without an ffl for repair (not replacement though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redpillregret Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I’ve contacted them twice and they told me no exchange was available. I’ve now emailed them twice and referenced others getting them. Is there a particular rep to talk to?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaep1911 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I emailed the CS about the LCI and carbon debris on the lens, and politely asked if they would exchange the barrel. They replied asking for evidences. I emailed the photos that I had posted here. It did not go as smoothly. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George16 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Don’t tell them that you need a new barrel. They’ll balk at the first chance if you say it most of the time. Just let them know of the problem and how it’s affecting your standing in the matches you participate in due to the clouding of the optic. If you get a knowledgeable rep, he’ll send you an RMA number to have your gun shipped to them for warranty repairs. If the rep still doesn’t want to issue you an RMA, politely ask to speak to his supervisor and go from there. Anywho, good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
