I noticed recently on GunBroker and on impactguns.com you can get some of the SIG556s for right at a grand. In some cases or version free shipping too. Seems like a good deal.

Was wondering why the price on them has dropped?

the obama scare is over, the economy is shit, and there is more supply than demand. imho.
I dont know for sure but thats what I suspect.[Flower] buds has them for $971.00 shipped so sig may be running a promo of some sort also???

People have noted, that there are AR-15 rifles available - who wants a Sig when you have a huge selection of AR´s ;)

the scare is over, supply and demand...there is a ton of supply and the demand has fallen off sharply. people are starting to feel it in their wallets.

there are plenty of good deals to be had now, but I think they will get better.

a lot of manufacturers jumped into the ar market anything from a .22 to big calibers. when the market floods like that prices are going to fall off.

I am just hoping ammo will continue to fall.


all it takes is one bill to get to the house or senate or obama to make a proposal and the fear will ride again and prices will soar...
