Sig 556 Patrol SWAT

[Jose]

Since I sold my Bushmaster a couple of months ago, I've been on the hunt for it's replacement and found a Sig Sauer 556 Patrol SWAT for $1050. Is this a good deal on a used 556?

I saw them cheaper at the last Market Hall gun show. My old man paid $800 for his, certified pre-owned.

But is $800 what you've normally seen them for or was that an extremely good deal? Also what's the difference between the SWAT Patrol and the other 556's?

$800 to $900 seemed to be a pretty standard price on them.

The Swat patrol has a side-folding stock (not just collapsible), a picatinny rail, integral folding front a rear sights (that are really shitty, but nonetheless present), and a 16 inch barrel instead of an 18 inch (like the regular swat).

Here is a Swat Patrol-




And a regular Swat-





Note: The flash hiders on these guns are also quick attach suppressor mounts.

Edit: I just looked it up and I think they both are 16" barrels, but one has a longer picatinny rail.

There is one for sale @ the army navy pawn store in Irving, didn't see the price though.

my 556 and 10/22 are by far my favorite guns

800 seems good.. It wasnt a year ago that they were 1200+ for the non railed version... I know cause I wanted one to match my patrol issue Sig 226. I hate sig pistols, but that rifle is tits.

$800 is good but only if I can find it easly at a gun show. Unfortunately I haven't been to a gun show in years and I have more money than time so I'm going to go with this. I've looked at all the broker sites but locally at nationally and this seems like a good deal so I'm going to go for the $1050. I found one in Houston that throws in a scope but I'm not waiting on it. I may flip it late as I really wanted a Ruger SR556 because the take down is familiar but I'm really like the Sig folding stock right now. Might sell it later. gonna buy it tomorrow night.

Good looking rifle

I like that regular Swat model.

Yep...me too. Although..the few I've handled seemed loose to me.

[Jose]

So I'm thinking about backing out of this deal now because I found that the Classic SWAT sells for $1099 brand new at CDNN and Bachman Pawn & Gun so it's not as great of a deal as I thought when buying from a store.

Sounds like all my ex-girlfriends. Nothing to be afraid of.

But they were loose before you got to them right?

I probably wouldn't mess with 'em otherwise!
