SIG 552-2 Commando

The civilian model of the Commando, it has an 8.9“ long barrel but to maintain non-SBR status a fake suppressor is pinned on to reach the 16″ long requirement. These are very hard to find and sell for around $3,500 to $4,000+. The SIG 550 series, even among its civilian market models is known to mark and wear off the finish on the upper from spent shells. This happens in quite a few semi-auto rifles but its quite pronounced on the SIG’s even after just a couple hundred rounds. (GRH)

SIG 552-2 Commando

A short barreled SIG 550 series variant chambered in 5.56x45mm. This particular example is a rare select fire model. Civilian semi-auto models with a pinned on barrel extension were available but are also quite rare and costly since they make excellent SBR hosts. I’m not sure how much the seller is looking at for this one since it has a reserve, but its an interesting and impressive (not to mention collectable) piece of Swiss machinery. (GRH)
