HellsAngel Posted January 30, 2008 Report Share Posted January 30, 2008 The 556 is undeniably a SIG rifle, just with improved ergonomics and functions. I prefer (by a BIG margin) the old school looks of the 550-552 but the 556 is an improvement. If I were to request a SIG rifle, it would be the 556. Stanag mags and bolt closure... It simply is better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nox Invictus Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 Merged into one. Sig pistols and rifles http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-2/1243131/Sig.jpg Amateurstuntman, could you post up a few more pics of that '226 with the compensator, or whatever it is? Looks very, very cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sturgis Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) just fitted the top rail and AP combo i'll have to use my other mount though or get a new one, as the ap sits just a little to high, still useable, but just doesn't look as good Edited January 31, 2008 by sturgis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
[BS]_MARS Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 The receiver looks MASSIVE. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sturgis Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 It's alot beefier to hold then an M4, it's a touch longer aswell. I've begun on what is supposed to be a pritty thorough review of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SigPro552 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 (edited) One word: gorgeous. Edit: How's the build quality? I was thinking of picking one up before, and I may just have to do that. However, $400 is rather steep, though it is a unique kit indeed.

k30dxedle Posted January 31, 2008 Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 First of all, I'm completely jealous of you. That having been said, is that bottom foregrip rail removeable? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sturgis Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 (edited) One word: gorgeous. Edit: How's the build quality? I was thinking of picking one up before, and I may just have to do that. However, $400 is rather steep, though it is a unique kit indeed. Build quality is good overall, be aware that the lower receiver is not a one piece lower though, it is infact two halves. there are a few niggles, but overall, i'm quite pleased with it. I'm writing a review atm where i will go deeper into them, but it's progressing slowly with having little time, i expect to have more to time to complete it this weekend though. so bear with me. First of all, I'm completely jealous of you. That having been said, is that bottom foregrip rail removeable? The 3 rails on the 556 handgaurds are all molded on the handgaurd and thus non removable. been playing around abit after seeing amateurstuntmans 556 I had some plans with mine, but seeing as i do quite fancy the 552 front on it, i think might have to work my plans around a RAS upgrade aswell, since the siderails on the 556 won't allow you to put on a full length railcover Edited February 1, 2008 by sturgis Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DerRelienT Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 That 556 is B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L I got to hold one at my local store yesterday, and I'd buy the kit in a heartbeat if I had the money for it and the money to get it installed/skill to install it. Can you fit standard M4 stock on it? *Will post pics of 552 and 552 later* Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sturgis Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 yes, you can fit a standard M4 stock here are some pictures from my review wich i have just finished, and will be uploading in a few minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Evan Levesque Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Nice gun quiksilver, what non-rail kit is that? I've been looking for an older style SIG everywhere, can't find one... Evan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
quiksilver6184 Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Its a PGC non-railed kit. I have been in love with them forever, but they were discontinued. PGC just released a new batch of them and I was able to buy one the first day they were available on redwolf. I also installed a Guarder steel barrel, nineball tightbore, guarder springs and real steel grips. She is my pride and joy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Romulus Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 That is a really beautiful P226 quiksilver6184. It is so simple and clean but yet still very eye catching. Just curious though, with your Jack Bauer themed sig are you thinking about making it two tone at some point? That would look awfully good as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nicoli Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 (edited) Ok so just what about that gun is Sig now? It looks even more like an odd M4 variant!! argh!!!! lol Edited February 6, 2008 by Nicoli Quote Link to post Share on other sites
c_a_r_t_e_r_3_5 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 I'm not sure about the OD stock and the Tan magazine... but I like it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Ok so just what about that gun is Sig now? It looks even more like an odd M4 variant!! argh!!!! lol Errr, everything except the muzzle device and the stock. It doesn't say anywhere that the M203 has to be on an AR variant, the RAS is a copy of the B+T RAS not an airsoft affectation. I like it, I think it will look pretty good when it is painted tan/FDE. On that note, I am pretty sure the stock is FDE and not OD at all. Lovely gun. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
c_a_r_t_e_r_3_5 Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Oh okay! (I don't know what FDE is...) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
