Overview-

============

The SIG SG510 is probably one of the most underrated rifles of the Cold War era. While it may not be particularly noteworthy in appearance, it is a true crude combat rifle designed from the ground up for accuracy and reliability in extreme climatic conditions. The 510's design was derived directly from the AM55 rifle designed by Rudolf Amsler, which borrowed much of its functionality from German designs during World War II (notably the MG42 and FG42, though never to the extent that it infringed patents). The SG 510-1 (or Sturmgewehr 57 as it was adopted) as standard for the Swiss Army has a 24-inch barrel length, a heat-treated stamped steel barrel box manufactured using soldering instead of welding, an integrated teat (in which the mount can be moved forward or backward depending on preferences), flip micrometric sights with dioptrical apertures, a retractable winter trigger, and a rollback system with one of the most impressively complex shutter mechanisms. Despite all this, the rifle is still lighter than the G3 and M14, and combined with the 7.5x55mm GP11 (which in the standard FMJ version is virtually identical to the Match-grade .308), surpasses both rifles at a distance.

Despite this, it remains a somewhat forgotten weapon. Although it is essentially one of the best full-size rifles, due to the above-mentioned soldering and heat treatment as well as difficulty, it was one of the most expensive ever adopted. This, combined with the somewhat insular business practices of SIG Neuhausen of that era, did not contribute to its commercial success.

While the 510-4 (version under 7.62mm NATO) was adopted in Chile and Bolivia, and the FAMAE was produced under license, even the civilian market was barely interested in it due to the high price. Thus, it appears to be an outsider of history, and SIG in both the 510-4 and 510-1/Stgw57/PE57 versions are essentially collectibles outside of Switzerland.

This kit comes with 5 rifles, corresponding magazines and optics for the GP11 and 7.62 NATO versions of the 510 family.
