Title: SIG716 AR-10 Clone
Post by: 2aHawaii on February 02, 2010, 08:53:45 AM
It looks like Sig is coming out with an AR-10 clone since AR-15 clones have been done to death. No word yet on pricing or availability.

I would love to have one of these

That LaRue looks nice too.
The only thing is, personally, I can't imagine spending that much on a rifle....yet.
At this point in my life, I'd rather get a DPMS or AR-10 SASS for a precision sniper or a base model of either for a stripper model.

I just noticed the ArmaLite SASS is also $3k. The DPMS SASS is just above $2k.

Wow, I just saw DPMS has a new model. The Pantherâ„¢ REPR (http://www.dpmsinc.com/firearms/firearm.aspx?id=66) for $2.5k as well as a whole bunch of other new .308 models.
