The picture may not be accurate to the product. Does the rifle feature the bayonet lug?

David, no Sir. The Sig Sauer 716 Gen2 Patrol Rifle does not include a "Bayonet Lug".

No David .. there is no bayonet mount on this rifle.

Hi David, No unfortunately The 716 Gen2 Patrol Rifle does not include a Bayonet Lug.

David, no bayonet lug on the 716 Patrol. Additionally, the handguard covers the gas block and the barrel is too long for a bayonet to seat correctly had there been a lug. It does appear that thumbnail image is incorrect and is showing a 516 model.

So on some of the other models it states .308(7.62×51) but this model states 7.62x51 I thought the rule was you can run 7.62 in a 308 but not the other way around so the answer I'm looking for is, is this .308 or is this 7.62x51

Some military chambers for 7.62x51 can run head space to 1.645 which will stretch a 308 win. case to the point that it may separate. Won't hurt you much, but not a good situation. Have the chamber checked and see if it is chambered short enough to run 308 safely. If so then you can shoot both. You can fire a 7.62 in it then black up the shoulder with a magic marker. Set your dial calipers to .400 and set them on the shoulder to leave a mark on both sides. Then measure the head 2 times to both marks and average your readings. If it measures 1.634-1.627 it is safe for 308.

Thomas - Copied directly from the owner manual of the SIG 716 rifle: "The rifle is chambered in 7.62x51mm naTo and is compatible with .308 Winchester ammunition" (Page 21 - Owners manual) sigsauer.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/SIG716.pdf So, YES the rifle is compatible with 308 Winchester Ammunition.

Thomas, the SIG 716G@ has long been advertised with 308. For warranty and safety reasons confirm this directly with SIG at 603-610-3000 option 1 ---- 8:00am – 5:30pm EST.

The reliability of SIG's short stroke piston design, taken up a caliber with a FDE Cerakote finish.

Familiar handling, unfamiliar power, SIG SAUER has taken the proven features of the SIG516 and applied them into a potent AR-based rifle chambered in 7.62 x 51mm with a FDE Cerakote finish. Utilizing the short stroke piston-driven operating system, an M1913 Mil-Std rail, free-floating barrel, aluminum forend, and telescoping stock, the SIG716 is the rifle of choice when you require the power of a larger caliber carbine.
