SIG SG 550
The SG 551, 552 & 553 are all variants of the SG 550 thus I moved them to the Variants column. The SG 550 SR is technically a variant as well but i think it is substantially different enough that it will help to have a picture. --Zackmann08 13:49, 17 January 2012 (CST)
- Are the SIG 550 series rifles even made by SIG Sauer? I thought they were SIG arms which used to be a part of SIG Sauer but is now a separate company. --cool-breeze 16:11, 17 January 2012 (CST)
- I believe the company history and structure of SIG is very complicated. I think the original company was just called SIG, but it merged with a german company for legal reasons I don't remember and became SIG Sauer GmbH. The American branch used to be called SIGARMS, but changed in 2007 to SIG Sauer Inc. The original Swiss company SIG was also bought out in 2000 and is now called Swiss Arms, which is the company that currently makes the 550 series. I think that there are currently 3 companies that exist, Swiss Arms (Swiss part of the company originally called SIG), SIG Sauer GmbH (which is the German company that represents Swiss Arms internationally), and SIG Sauer Inc (the US company). So to answer your question, I have no f***ing idea where they should be. Depending on whether we are going by original company name or what the company goes by now makes a big difference, but I would put them all on the same page as unless you are familiar with the internal manoeuvrings of SIG you wouldn't know where to look for them, and it all started off as the same company anyway. Doubtless some of what I have written above is wrong, the whole SIG company structure gives me a headache, so anyone feel free to correct me. --commando552 17:30, 17 January 2012 (CST)
- Man, it doesn't just give you a headache, I need some painkillers now lol. --cool-breeze 18:59, 17 January 2012 (CST)

SIG-Sauer P238
What about P238 ? Flexo 14:07, 17 January 2012 (CST)
- We only list guns that have a page on this site already (note that this was the directive of the Admins, not my personal choice though I agree). The SIG-Sauer P238 has not been used in any movies, tv shows, etc. --Zackmann08 14:23, 17 January 2012 (CST)
