I just started watching the show "Burn Notice" last week. Ended up going out and buying season 1 so I could catch up too.

I've noticed a very nice trend throughout the show. It seems that somebody on the show production team has quite an affinity for Sig Sauer pistols (namely P228's and P226's)
It's amazing the percentage of people that carry Sigs on this show! Good guys, bad guys, they all have Sigs! Makes me proud! :D Anybody else notice this?
Aside from the gun selection though, still a really good show!

It's a great show. A little too simplistic and MacGyver-ish at times, but entertaining and does a good job of showing how to think outside the box.

Some of their gun stuff is just plain silly, but no worse than any other television series.

Watched the whole first season on a marathon they did couple weeks back, was very entertained.

And, ever since I picked up my p226 I have been spotting sigs in a lot of shows and movies I just didn't notice before.

My last job was working as Sales & Marketing Manager for Sangean (a radio manufacturer).

I came in contact with a company whos business was product placement. A company would hire them to proposition prop guys, set designers, even writers to place their clients products in exchange for free props, thus saving the production money. This is no doubt what Sig did.
