An AR stock has no business on a rifle other than an AR-15.
Hopefully Sig realizes this.


Sig 550 serises were not unique because they had Ar-15 parts on it...

toss a folder on it and I'd be all over it, that's my only hangup.  and I'm glad they ditched the A2 flash hider/comp that were in the first pics.

  It just looks like another pimped out AR. Until they put the real folding stock on it, I'll pass.

If it had a folding stock i would be very excited,

the ar stock just doesnt look right.

I'm with you, although a SOPMOD would look good as well. I too don't care for the pistol grip, but hopefully Magpul or someone will make a MIAD for it.

I love it, could do with a different stock and grip, but thats minor quibbling.  I will be an early adopter, I only wish it used AR compatible grips, mine would be getting a hogue asap, looks like it may take an AR style drip with some minor modification though.  Thats a sexy beast, and being able to use my current AR mags is cool, as are the new snap together plastic ones that (should!) work with ARs as well.

Originally, I thought it was the concept of an AR stock on there bothering me. Now I'm beginning to realize it's THAT stock bothering me.

I'd buy one for the supposed $1k though. Add on a UBR or CTR stock and B&T handguard and I could live with it.

How the hell can you predict that it isn't "practical?"

Have you ever fired one?

ETA: Looks good to me. Glad to see Sig offering something for the American civvie market.

I am REALLY starting to like it.  I would rather have an A2 fixed type stock on the 20" model though.  The AR style stock on a carbine seems to be pretty practical, more so than the folding stock.

They need to stay true to thier sig roots.  It looks like they welded an ar's butt on to a sig rifle.  I want an original sig look.

No one is forcing you too. Some of us are interested knowing the quality level SIG produces.

Since the buffer tube isn't necessary with the Sig55X series system, how hard would it be to make a side folder to attach to whatever buffer tube attachment point they are using?  I am guessing aftermarket or Sig factory options to accomplish it will be available within a month of market availability.

The other post advised that it will be able to accomodate the folding stocks, original 550 series handguards, and the upper receiver will be available without the raised rail. FYI.

From the looks of the lower receiver, it doesnt appear that the original sig folder will fit. The treaded part for the AR type stock looks to be part of the lower.  

screw the rifle, I want more info on that OPTIC mounted to it.............

Talk about watermark overkill. Crappy pics because of it.

I'll take the one with the silencer and scope.

I'm kinda curious why do most people on this forum seem to hate this new gun?  It seems cool to me.

If you just wanted one of the original 55x series then pay the exorbant amount of money to get one.  This gun seems to fill the requirements I have been coming up with for the last year.  I can not wait to read a range report so we actually know how it shoots.

Not spending any of my $$$ for one in THAT form...I wouldn't buy one even if they were only $500.

Looks like an Armalite AR10 instead of the "SIG that looks like it was ass-raped by First Samco" is in my future...
