Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Which is more reliable, Sig P516 10" or Sig P556XI 10" ??
Posted: 12/1/2014 10:43:28 PM EDT
Thinking about picking one of these two up.   Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the reliability of these two?  Both 10" barrel and 5.56 NATO.

in theory, XI.



Fixed ejector, claw extractor, long stroke piston. It's basically an AK.




In practice, #idunno

I have the 10"  516.  It has been flawless except when I put it on the suppressed setting without having a suppressor mounted. On suppressed with a suppressor it ran perfectly.
