The SIG-551-SWAT

SIG's SG 551-SWAT is a gas-operated weapon conceived specifically for special forces and elite units. Incorporating synthetics and corrosion-resistant materials, it is highly suitable for maritime engagements. The weapon is based on the proven design concepts of the SG 551 (SG is an abbreviation for Sturmgewehr, or assault rifle) and is extremely compact. The optimal layout and outstanding weight distribution provide convincing accuracy and recoil characteristics.



                                                             
                                                         
The SG 551-SWAT is equipped with a highly tested and accurate sighting system. A combined diopter and snapsight shooting assembly is mounted on the receiver housing and calibrated for selected ranges. This rear sight resembles that found on HK rifles and submachineguns, and it is adjustable for both windage and elevation. It is also equipped with tritium-illuminated markings for night firing. The front sight is equipped with a protective hood and a flip-up night sight that is also illuminated with tritium. A universal scope mount is available for the SG 551-SWAT that accepts a wide range of sighting aids such as night-vision equipment, Trijicon ACOGs and other STANAG-based optics without the need for special tools or adapters. A universal fitting on the foresight mount accepts special equipment such as bipods or laser sighting aids and provides a safe means of attaching the weapon in transport vehicles.

                   

 All components of the SG 551-SWAT are manufactured to withstand the rigors of combat in any environment. Exposed steel parts such as the upper/lower receiver, sights, magazine release and trigger are coated in plastic to resist corrosion. The folding buttstock, pistol grip, handguards and magazine are all manufactured from high-impact synthetics. The gas system's components are made of stainless steel. The barrel, bolt, carrier, and firing pin are all made with steel that has been gas nitrided, hardened and tempered. The bolt and carrier, along with most other components internal to the receivers, undergo a special phosphating procedure. The result of SIG's engineering is a rifle that is especially suited for tropical and maritime operations.

Sometimes it is difficult to chose

                   

A.C.O.G.

Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight - The tactical advantage for precision sighting in any light.  Initially designed for the M16 family, every feature of the ACOGs mechanical and optical design was chosen for a single purpose - to provide increased hit potential in all lighting conditions.  The exterior of the ACOG is a forged aluminum body (aircraft strength 7075 alloy) which is precision machined to exacting tolerances then hard-anodized.  ACOG’s are internally-adjustable, compact telescopic sights that use tritium illuminated reticles for target acquisition in all light conditions - even total darkness.  Manufactured and tested to exceed military standards, The ACOG 4x32 model was chosen by U.S. Special Operations Command for all Special Forces Units including Navy Seals, Rangers, and Green Beret. The ACOG is also in service with many federal, state and local law-enforcement agencies.  ACOG gives you the edge in any light to keep your focus sharp.  Both full size ACOG models (4x32 & 3.5x35) are available with the popular Bindon Aiming Concept which is achieved using a unique combination of advanced fiber optics and self-luminous tritium.  Using dual-illumination technology, originally developed for the military and proven in combat, the fiber optic light collector illuminates the aiming point automatically balancing the brightness with the shooting conditions.  The tritium illuminates the aiming point even in total darkness.  The result: lightening-fast precision aiming in any light without failure-prone batteries - for maximum shooting success.
