[mmatt]

Aside from the weight, this is a pretty cool rifle.

I really loved my non restricted carbine when I had it. That is one I will regret selling.

 

[saskcop]

I really should get one of these things ...

 

[platnumbob]

Yes...and do so while you still can. Availability is likely only to go down.

 

[mildot]

Good job!!

Kinda want to trade some ARs for one of these

Around $3000+ used, $4200 new.
I used to have two of them and in my opinion they are very nice rifles but certainly not worth 4000.

I am planning to get one but at $4000 I have way too many choices.
Great gun? Yes.
Worth the $4k ? Maybe not

If only it was 762 x 39

Yes it is. Thanks! I have many other gun reviews on my channel:

(there's some recent flying stuff on there too so you may have to scroll down a bit. What can I say...? It's my other passion)

Neat review, looks like whoever hit that rifle with the rattle can forgot to remove some of the furniture first.

Why is your mount backward?

Nicely done review.

Thanks for the reviews

4200 $ for a Swiss , It' s built to last a soldier's lifetime. No other rifle is more reliable. --go to http://www.biggerhammer.net/sigamt/550/550techinspection/

only bad side, no fun switch....


2.- Weapon service life

2.1 Service life of individual components

The service life or individual components is classified into 4 groups as follows:

a) min. 10000 rounds for wearing parts of the bolt assembly
b) min. 15000 rounds barrel life
c) min. 15000 rounds for all other secondary components
d) min. 30000 rounds for major components.


2.2 Extended service life / Functional safety

- Experience indicates that depending on the grade of ammunition used, the barrel has to be changed after approx. 20000 up to 30000 rounds have been fired.

-15000 rounds for wearing parts of the bolt assembly are quite feasible: other small components will last for anything up to 30000 rounds.

-Major components such as trigger housing, bolt, receiver, plastic parts, the main components of the trigger action may readily be expected to withstand 40000 rounds.

-We have weapons at our plant which have major components still fully functional after firing 80000 up to 100000 rounds.
