This video review focuses on the FAMAE SG 543 rifle, a .223/5.56 caliber firearm. The reviewer acknowledges its potentially high price point in the Canadian market but highlights its classic status and enjoyable shooting experience. The video touches on the resurgence of these rifles in value due to upcoming prohibitions on other Sig550 style firearms, making the FAMAE 540 and 543 the only legal Sig-style platforms in Canada for this caliber. It also briefly mentions FAMAE's SMG lineage, inspired by the Sig SG54X series and HK MP5. The firearm is confirmed as legal to own in Canada with an RPAL and is restricted to approved ranges.
The FAMAE SG 543 is a Chilean-made, licensed variant of the Swiss SIG SG 540 series, chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO. It features an AK-style operating mechanism, a tubular buttstock, and offers safe, semi, burst, and full-auto fire modes with a rate of fire between 650-800 RPM. This review highlights its historical significance as one of the few remaining manufacturers of the SG 540 series.
