SIG 552?

2020-12-18 04:35:14 UTC  

Sig 550

2020-12-18 04:35:18 UTC  

basicly ya

2020-12-18 04:35:30 UTC  

ooh never heard of that one before. I like it

2020-12-18 04:35:41 UTC  

i really want one but theyre not here

2020-12-18 04:35:50 UTC  

how come?

2020-12-18 04:36:11 UTC  

I can never keep the SIG rifle designations straight.

2020-12-18 04:36:47 UTC  

Except the MPX

2020-12-18 04:36:51 UTC  

they shoot 5.56, 20" barrel, swiss army standard rifle, 1:7/10 twists, long stroke piston gas system, AR style assembly

2020-12-18 04:37:20 UTC  

G3 style sights

2020-12-18 04:37:26 UTC  

I do like the look of them, but they'd be ridiculously expensive.

2020-12-18 04:37:49 UTC  

i found one for $7000+

2020-12-18 04:38:07 UTC  

plus theyre perfect winter rifles

2020-12-18 04:38:29 UTC  

I think I'd stick to an AK for that price

2020-12-18 04:38:34 UTC  

plus folding stock

2020-12-18 04:39:00 UTC  

well ya but look at that piece of art

2020-12-18 04:39:22 UTC  

its gorgeous, but doubt I will ever be able to afford that

2020-12-18 04:39:30 UTC  

Beautiful, but we're talking 7k. I could almost buy an AWM for that.

2020-12-18 04:39:37 UTC

2020-12-18 04:40:01 UTC  

i mean i live in the snow so

2020-12-18 04:40:23 UTC  

id pay $1k without blinking

2020-12-18 04:40:28 UTC  

I may have a slight bias toward bolt-action precision rifles.

2020-12-18 04:40:38 UTC  

do ar15s have a hard time in snow? I wouldnt know, b/c have never really beem north of PA <:KEK:726877368601411624>

2020-12-18 04:44:40 UTC  

Severe sub zero weather like Siberia and Southern Canada (AKA Wisconsin and Minnesota).

2020-12-18 04:44:55 UTC  

i mean direct inpingement has built in reliability issues

2020-12-18 04:47:33 UTC  

I saw a video where they tested AK vs. AR in Russian winter and after leaving an AR for I think 6 hours in the snow and wind, it froze to the point that they couldn't pull the charging handle. The AK survived, though.

At that point though, why are you leaving your rifle unattended in Siberia for 6 hours?

2020-12-18 04:49:07 UTC  

or just carrying it

2020-12-18 04:49:24 UTC  

sub-zero is typical where im at

2020-12-18 04:51:39 UTC  

I think if you did a press check every so often, even just carrying it wouldnt freeze it. I mean you really have to try to get a modern gun to freeze (but to be fair AK will probably survive even if you try).

2020-12-18 04:53:28 UTC  

I'm not saying that a SIG 550 isn't worth it, I'm just saying I'd go for something different. They are beautiful and you probably couldn't go wrong with one.

2020-12-18 04:53:34 UTC  

i honestly havnt done any snow shooting

2020-12-18 04:54:08 UTC  

It sucks... at least it did with the Army.

2020-12-18 04:54:36 UTC  

i mean ive got all my bases covered

2020-12-18 04:55:28 UTC  

AR carbine, AKM, G3 battle rifle, RPK

2020-12-18 04:58:51 UTC  

I have an AR, my Kar98k and my 3 pistols. My collection is small, but I have what I need. I figure if it all goes to crap, I can load up and move out quickly.

That being said, I do have a list of guns that I want to buy..... an extensive and expensive list.

2020-12-18 05:00:03 UTC  

i have a few pistols but im more rifle-y

2020-12-18 05:03:04 UTC  

As far as pistols go, I think I'm good with what I have (except I want a P226). My desires are for carbines like the LaRue OBR 5.56 and G36, battle rifles like the M1A, and precision rifles like the AWM and a 6.5 CM... and finally an M134.

2020-12-18 05:07:56 UTC  

the m134 is that port gun, right?

2020-12-18 05:08:06 UTC  

Is a 6.5 creed considered a short action?
