$300 Rebate on Sig556 Rifles

I wonder if this is an attempt to sop up some unfulfilled demand due to the perception of the ACR rifle?

If it was on pistols too, I might have bitten and finally got off my butt and SBR's something. Not P556, just rifles.

a local shop has dust bunny's on the Sigs-and a price tags marked down from 2100 to 1400-------

That rifle still isn't worth the $ IMO.

Hell, 1400 plus a 300 dollar rebate!?! You can't beat that. Thank you Sig!!

I'm highly tempted. With the ACR as much as it is this would be a nice consolation prize. Throw on a vortex and some Aurora diopters... good times!

That said, some friends with more sense than I are talking me out of it. I have enough ARs and don't get enough trigger time as is.

I'm thinking about getting one of these, but want to know the good and the bad. Can you elaborate?

I LOVE MINE! (but wish my fingers were all 1/4 inch longer)

I got a Sig 556 when they came out, brand new from Sportsman's Warehouse at the sticker price of $999.

It ran fine, but it offered nothing IMO over an AR or AK.

Check out an Arsenal 106fr before you lay down any bills for the Sig.
