*If* this were a true all-Swiss import with a few US parts for compliance, it *might* be worth something close to that, based on the price of what an all Swiss gun is in Canada (~2500?) and the premium that our market might be willing to pay for a new run of them.
But I've read about these and at the end of the day they are basically doing the same thing that individuals here are doing; that is, buy a 556 and swap a 550 lower. If you are one of the people who wants to do that, this might be a decent option since they seem to be going for about the same price as it would cost you to do it yourself, and this route is less trouble, and has Sig's blessing with "matching serial numbers" apparently.
But at the end of the day its still a $3600 parts gun with a 556 upper. I just don't see $3600 worth of appeal. Not even close, really. Evidently some do, so more power to 'em.
