SIG Sauer issued a safety recall notice on its popular Cross bolt-action rifle Wednesday. It advises consumers to immediately discontinue rifle use on all Cross rifles.
SIG Cross Safety Recall
SIG personnel viewed a video presenting a single Cross rifle with a potential safety concern, according to a SIG Sauer release. The rifle then underwent inspection by SIG officials. It exhibited a delayed discharge after pulling the trigger. So SIG immediately issued the recall to implement modification to the rifle’s firing action.
Rifle owners should register at sigsauer.com/crossrecall or call 603-610-3000, option 1. SIG will then communicate further to arrange returning the rifle. SIG will cover all shipment and replacement costs.
