Really SIG, WHAT were you Thinking?????

[Kyle Reese]

Odin approved.

[LOKNLOD]

I've got one on order for when my application to the secret guild of super-human assassins is processed.

Good thing I don't really aim with my eyes when bending bullets, or those sights might be a problem.

[SecondsCount]

I laughed hard.

Theme guns, for those attracted to shiny.

[LHS]

Completely impractical (especially with that front sight), but I can't help but start in with that "Lo there do I see my father..."

[JM Campbell]

I guess "Sons of Guns" did some consulting work......




Epic FAIL.

[John Ralston]

I guess "Sons of Guns" did some consulting work......

That IS funny!

[ToddG]

And the einherjar wept...

[will_1400]

Well, there goes my desire to own a SIG...

[LtDave]

Contraindicated for appendix carry me thinks...

[Fly320s]

If you are ever near Epping, NH, go buy Sig Academy and take a look at the guns on display in their shop. I think Sig tries hard to come up with outlandish designs simply to say, "Look at me!" Purple, gold, chrome, nickel, rainbow... and that is just one gun!

[Slavex]

my forefathers would hang their heads in shame to have such a weapon.

[G60]

Odin approved.

[YVK]

Wonder if it comes with extra-long reach trigger and 27 lbs trigger pull 'cause, you know, vikings, they don't give a sh...

[TCinVA]

So does it fill a soul gem if you shoot somebody with it?

[derekb]

I think we've got a winner, folks.

[secondstoryguy]

Looks like Angelina Jolie's gun from the movie Wanted. Sig needs to get a life, unless that gun is a joke, then it's pretty funny.

[Joe in PNG]

For night use you just set the front sight on fire!

[TCinVA]

Anything you can do, I can do better! I can do anything better than you!

I wonder if it does extra damage against elves (http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Wuuthrad).

The really sad thing is that I didn't have to follow the link to know what that was in reference to.

[DonovanM]

I think the rear sight brings new meaning to the term "windage adjustment."

[LHS]

How does that even work?!? The notch becomes a square aperture beneath the sail, but there's a figurehead on top of the front sight. The figurehead would completely obscure your target. Ok, this just went from being over-the-top to full retard.

[JeffJ]

I guess nobody told Sig that you never go full retard

Pretty sure that the kind of people who would buy this aren't members of pistol-forum.

[Mitchell, Esq.]

Gaudy...yes...

But in my opinion, stunning work.

Except for the sights, I'd take it.

[LHS]

Honestly, I was thinking that this style of engraving would look great on a .500-3" double rifle. Hammer of Thor, anyone?

[TCinVA]

I don't think that's really a concern with that pistol.

[Mitchell, Esq.]

WIN!

[John Ralston]

That IS sad...REALLY sad! I looked at the link and I still couldn't figure it out.

[Sparks2112]

Is that a thumb safety...?

[LHS]

One of the great joys of my life is that I live within easy reach of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Arms and Armor collection: Double Barreled Percussion Shotgun (http://www.metmuseum.org/Collections/search-the-collections/40003180?rpp=60&pg=5&ao=on&ft=*&deptids=4&pos=293)

Words fail me.

[dookie1481]

I didn't have to look either. I are nerd.

[DonovanM]

That... is disappointing. A true Nord of Skyrim would know.

[gtmtnbiker98]

Nothing from that dumba$$ company surprises me anymore. Just to think, they are selling enough to justify a larger facility in NH. Who really buys their junk?

[John Ralston]

I am a Norseman, not a Nord man...I used to be a geek, but I stopped playing D&D when I was 13 :D

[Joseph B.]

I think it would have been a very cool collector peice if they did not <fracking>put that <stuff> all over the sights?:rolleyes:

Pretty cool art work, just seems too much of a wall hanger for me, I would at least like to shoot it once...

[NickA]

So would a holster for that thing have a sight channel or a ship channel?

Yep, they are building new facilities at their range and they just leased a larger building to expand their manufacturing.

[NEPAKevin]

No oars?

[jmjames]

Is that an AK converted to bolt action, or do my eyes deceive me? :D

Obviously this pistol was designed with the point shooting crowd in mind.

[Tamara]

I understand guns that are engraved to the point that they are essentially unshootable objets d'art, or at least I do when the guns in question are old Broomhandles or Lugers that probably wouldn't get much range time anyway. They're not my personal cup of tea, but I understand them.

What I don't get is heavy engraving and serious bling on modern MIM-'n'-plastic guns full of toaster parts. It's like seeing hand-stitched Connolly leather, lambswool Wilton carpets, and a hand-polished walnut burl dash in a Toyota Camry with stamped steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps.

That's brilliantly put.

Actually, the X-series of SIG pistols are really nice and completely unlike their mass produced cousins. It's like mistaking a Rock Island with an SVI. They're built to be able to shoot 2" groups at 50 yards.

Impractical, yes. Just like a custom 1911 :)

[JV_]

Are the extractor issues fixed?

Honestly, that engraving isn't really blowing my skirt up quality-wise.

Yes, I am well familiar with the X-Series pistols, thank you. My comment stands. ;)

[jmjames]

You know you want one.

I mean, think of the possibilities... it's an AK firing, most likely, 30 year old Eastern bloc mil surp ammo, with the extra accuracy upgrade of a flimsy wire underfolding stock (ever try the cheek weld on those?), mixed with the AK irons with their "legendary accuracy potential"... and it all up, mix with a homebrew bolt action system (probably just a big charging handle welded to the bolt carrier and some mechanism to keep it from accidentally being removed on the bolt cycle...), and you've got a recipe for "Tack Driving Accuracy (TM)".

I would be a fool to not want one... and my previous PSL/FPK and XD40 ("it's got stopping power, but won't overpenetrate or kill people in the next room" is what the local gun shop told me, I swear...) ownership PROVES that I am no fool. :cool:

Now, what's the pricing on the Viking SIG and where do I send my check? If I ever go pillaging and razing villages, this is the sidearm for me. Combine it with a quality, modern longarm like one of those KelTec RFBs, and I think I can safely retire my Mosin-Nagant/HiPoint pistol combo.

I posted this to Facebook, and the response from my friends was overwhelmingly positive. Le sigh.

The weapon has obviously been blessed by Odin. Empty cases wouldn't dare defy the will of Odin. I mean, that's worse that walking up to Chuck Norris and impugning the chastity of his mother.

[JV_]

Empty cases wouldn't dare defy the will of Odin.You might be right. But the Gen4 has defied Glock's "Perfection". :p

[Tamara]

It sure looks like it fell out of Yggdrasil and hit every branch on the way down. :p

[Legion]

Ok, now THAT'S funny. :D

[JRas]

reminds me of the guy who showed up to a ccw course:

He rolls up has his handgun in his pocket with the holster :D

instructor is like uh, you might be better off putting it on your belt, the guy refuses and says this is how he carries it.

first draw the holster comes out with the gun, so he finally listens.

His carry gun is chromed up sig with gold accessories and a design on the top.

more to the story but I should probably stop now.... makes you wonder if some people are responsible enough to carry

[Mitchell, Esq.]

No.

I don't wonder.

[David Armstrong]

Obviously you folks simply do not understand the cultural imperatives and subtle attractions of what is perhaps the ultimate Texas Barbeque Gun!:cool:

Texas DPS did just get their own boats; perhaps we'll be the next great seafaring people. (BTW only in Texas would we have boats that say "Highway Patrol" on the sides)
