Sig 522

[NSR500]

Looks like the Sig 522 (Rimfire 556 Clone) will be available by April/May as stated by Sig at Shot 09!
100% Made in the USA (Exeter, New Hampshire)

Hopefully we'll see some good pics from the Shot 09 coverage.

w00t!!!

I'm so happy that there are more modern semi-auto rimfire rifles. We'll now have the WASR22, GSG5, AR22's, and this new Sig.
Outside of the ability for us to train on the cheap, I think it'll help bring new shooters to the sport and help reduce the "Evil" image of black rifles.

Any info on pricing? I just hope it's not like the SIG556. Because if it is....I'll stick to my 556.

Watching the NRA video coverage I believe it was targeted in the $500 price range. Google search pulled up some retailers prepping their websites with pre-order information for an unspecified Sig .22 rifle in the $500 range.
Hopefully, that'll be the price upon release because that'll be a damn good price. AR Rimfire uppers alone go for $500+... Might as well buy a complete rifle with that change.

It's up on the Sig Sauer webpage now:

If it really goes for around $500 I'm all over it!

[X-NewYawker]

They say $500 and I've got my request in already...

[NSR500]

Yeah, I was going to buy another uppper for my AR, but why?
If the Sig is solid I can get a complete rifle.

[!@#$]

does it work with BDM mags?

There's already a 110+ post thread on the 522.

Short version: I want one.

I doubt it takes the BDM mags, but it might.

Jeese that's pretty. Can anyone say GSG-who?

I was trying like hell to get one of the elusive GSGs, and now... I dunno. Think I wanna 522. That thing is gorgeous.

I've got to get in line for one of these.
