Hi-Powers

A gun design as old as the hills, but somehow keeps going up in price for no real improvement in quality.

typical AR isn't anywhere near as rugged, nor can shoot the Swiss hotter load 5.56.

>>28426716
>The only reason for the price is that it's made in Switzerland by people that have high salaries.
no, the reason is because only one company makes them, but everyone and his cousin is making ARs.

What are economics, and how do they work?

My friend in the Swiss army has one that wobbles all over the fucking place because he threw it at the floor while training several times.

He can't even shoot straight with it.

Swissfag here.
Can confirm the SG550 really is rugged as fuck.

[spoiler]All things considered, it's still overpriced though[/spoilersdon'tworkon/k/]

Your friend is full of shit and a bad shooter.

I've seen one get driven over by a fully loaded Steyr truck and still work just fine, only thing broken was the plastic charging handle cap.

>>28426816
not sure if you are agreeing or disagreeing.

My dad peed fire in 'Nam fuck

Do you think I could get away with buying a SIG 553 and shoot it at the 300m range in Switzerland?

Would they say anything or forbid me from using it?

>>28426842
I'm on your team homie.

>>28426860
Really depends on the folks at the range.

But if you don't know anybody there and just waltz in with an SG553 you're probably gonna get laughed at and sent out.

Try one of these ranges instead, they'll let you shoot pretty much anything short of F/A fire.
