Law Enforcement Rifle SG 551-1P
Developed specifically for law enforcement assignments at short
to medium intervention ranges up to 300 meters.
Universal Firearm
Self-loading pistols and sub-machine guns in 9 mm Para caliber
are essentially short-range weapons with corresponding stopping
power. The SIG 551-1P, in contrast, is an outstanding weapon
system for special units when confronted with sudden engagement
situations against mobile delinquents at short to medium ranges.
Design Concept
This highly compact weapon is based on the service-proven design
concept of the assault rifle SG 550. The ballistic capabilities of its
ammunition provide effective stopping power against any delinquent.
Optimal weapon configuration and excellent weight distribution result
in convincing accuracy and recoil characteristics.
