The recalled firearm sights contain a button cell battery that violates the mandatory federal regulations for consumer products containing button cell batteries because the button cell batteries can be easily accessed, posing an ingestion hazard.
The products include a button cell battery that is not in child-resistant packaging, as Reese’s Law requires. In addition, the products do not bear the mandated warnings. If ingested, button cell batteries, the batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death, posing an ingestion hazard to children.
The device has the Sig Sauer logo and Roemo5 name on one side of the product; the model number is on the packaging.
The recalled dot sights contain either the letter K or M, which is the last digit of the serial number printed on the bottom of the sight. Sig Sauer will provide instructions on how to access the serial number. The optic sights come in black and have one packaged CR2032 button cell battery.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled firearm sights and contact Sig Sauer for instructions on submitting a picture of the serial number to receive a free recall kit, including a new cap with the required labeling and an updated instruction manual.
