The SIGM400 is a family of firearms manufactured by SIG Sauer.[1] The M400 is an air-cooled, direct impingement gas-operated, magazine-fed carbine that is based on the earlier AR-15 rifle.[2] Depending on the variant, it can be chambered for 5.56×45mm NATO or .300 AAC Blackout cartridges, and may have a fixed or telescoping stock.[3]
