The carbine is great, don't get me wrong, but I have wanted the rifle version since I was a teenager in the 80's.

Thats the difference between a rifle and a carbine.
rifle = long carbine = short ; -) |

Back in the day I thumbed my nose at it for two reasons; the price and the rubber dust cover which seemed cheesy at the time. Boy was I ignant!

I am sorry 0351 did you have a rifle for sale or where you just stating that you liked the 550 platform?

I think he's just saying it'd be great to have a 550 "available" for those who want a rifle instead of a 551/556 type package which is more of a carbine...
Would be nice to have this available, but with what's out now...I'm good lol. |

I'm the opposite I guess. I prefer the shorter versions. The 550 is just too damn long IMO.

I am happy with the carbine. It is more sensible in the long run, unless you are on an open battlefield. I don't plan on being on one of those in the near future.

I much prefer the look of the 550 over the 551.
