Sig550


Photo From: MikeDavies - Album: Rifles--Classic Military

Description: This is the Sig550 "Blue Star", which was the first of the 550 models to be imported into Canada for sale to the public. Painting the receiver and other parts in this startling blue colour was Sig's concession to the CFC (Canadian Firearms Centre) to make it look "less evil".

Do you think that could lead to an accident or is it just my innate pessimism showing?
