Re: New CQB Rifle

Sorry Switchblade45, I should have been more descriptive. UPDATED

commanderjb is correct it's a Sig 556 with the original 551 handguards.

Viking, those are a step above worthless. They are kinda an afterthought really. It's really built to have an optic. I'm thinking of selling my Eotech and getting something different.

I owned an AR15, selling it and bought the SIG. I've never shot one, but have always loved the look. They aren't perfect, but they do serve many countries well.

 
Re: New CQB Rifle

Looks like a nice gun. have you shot it, yet?

I talked to a young guy on the range FOB the sandbox. He had one and an ACOG and said they group really well and swears by the reliability. He had some ratty worn hundred mile tape on between the lower and the upper receiver, made his Sig look kind of weird.

I was thinking of selling one of my M4geries and getting the Sig 556 myself.
