Sig Sauer's New Rifle Ad Goes Incredibly Hard, And Sean Strickland Is A Fan

Published|Updated

Sig Sauer brought some heat with its new rifle ad, and UFC star Sean Strickland loved it.

The popular gun manufacturer makes some of the best firearms on the planet, including weapons regularly used by Tier One American military units.

While Sig guns aren't cheap, they're dependable and trustworthy. When it comes to using guns, the best attribute is dependability and Sigs are dependable. It's that simple.

Turns out, Sig Sauer can also throw absolute heaters when it comes to marketing. The company recently released an ad for the M400 rifle titled "The New Face of Freedom."

I honestly couldn't tell if it was an ad for a rifle or the trailer for the latest version of "Red Dawn." Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

Sean Strickland loves Sig Sauer's new rifle ad.

Seriously, how hard does that commercial go? It's ripped straight from the 1984 version of "Red Dawn," which I have a habit of always watching after a few light beers.

Who is ready to fight some communist invaders?

We know one man who liked it for sure:

Content king Sean Strickland.

The UFC superstar shared the video on X with the caption, "Damn @sigsauerinc you went hard on this and I'm for it!!!" Agreed, Sean. Absolutely 100% agree. Whoever schemed this bad boy up was definitely cooking with gas.

It also wasn't just Sean sold on the M400 commercial. Many of his followers were in complete agreement.

Sean Strickland firing up X and tweeting about a Sig rifle is the perfect kind of crossover we need here at OutKick on a great morning in this beautiful country.

Also, for anyone looking to have a meltdown because Sean Strickland likes guns - save it for another time. Nobody cares, and in case you don't already know where I stand on firearms and the Second Amendment, enjoy the tweet below.

Are you a fan of Sig firearms or Strickland's stance - one shared by millions - on firearms? Let me know at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
