CapaciousZepher Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Yeah I actually like the hockey tape, it gives a pretty cool look. Not sure any rational, as far as a silencer like that in a real world sense, but definitely looks pretty sweet. - CapaciousZepher Quote Link to post Share on other sites

yee245 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 There haven't been too many 550's recently. Here's my new G&G Sig 550. Haven't taken any pictures yet with the "good" flash hider. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SquadSniper Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 My Sig 556. Converted with the GWS kit from a Marui 552 and painted with DuraCoat in Magpul Flat Dark Earth. The optic is a 4x32 ACOG replica, none of that FAKEOG reddot nonsense. Gearbox has a Systema overhaul with torque up gears, bore up cylinder, cylinder head, piston head, nozzle, piston, AR latch, spring guide, bearing bushings, and medium magnum motor. The hopup unit is Marui with a Madbull M4 length TB barrel. With that setup it's running a Madbull M120 spring that I think was mislabeled, it's shooting 450-455. Anyway, here's the pictures. Something you may have noticed in the second picture is the chopped front sight. The variant of the 556 I was trying to replicate lacks the hooded sight post that's present in the "classic" version. Just need to smooth it out and paint over it. Also in my armory is the Sig 556 CQB. Same setup except it's 330 fps and has a shorter barrel. I kept the original TM front assembly and left the diopter sights on there for a good 1 point sling mount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Crunchy Bunny Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 That FDE 556 is perty. You have any issues applying the Duracoat? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

quiksilver6184 Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Nice. The finish on your Guarder kit looks 10x better than mine did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FELDJAGER Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hey guys, i would like to send out a picture request for a SG551/2 with an aimpoint T1. Thanks in advance . Also is anyone aware of a lower profile scope mount for Sig rifles? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mat Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 (edited) Some beautiful guns in here, not so much a fan of the American Sig range though, I'm almost tempted to unpack mine (while it's still mine) from it's box and get some shots of it. lol, this is the problem with the SIG, I wanted a G36 for my first AEG and every time I went to the local airsoft shop I got distracted with a TM 552 with HurricanE body they had on the wall... after the fourth visit and spending yet another 10 minutes fondling it and feeling the reassuring weight I bit the BB and forked out for it. Now I'm broken hearted at having to sell it, but there is another gun I want and I'm poor, so it's one in, one out at the minute.... Although I figure if I can sell enough of my old style SIG low cap mags to pay for the other gun - I might get to keep my beautiful SIG. I love the reaction the 552 gets at sites, had plenty of marshalls wandering over to have a shufty, especially when the Quad RAS is on and it's in it's full metal glory - love the trigger response on the basic unit too, had plenty of Marshalls ask if I have two round burst installed, lol. Okay, now I'm talking myself out of selling it... I'm trying to shift everything onto the G3 platform, trouble is I can see myself wanting to get the full 55X platform too... and my other half has already said she can see me getting a SIG automatic, the amount of time I spend playing with them in shops. FELDJAGER: All the SIG mount rails I've seen have been like the TM one SquadSniper has above, or like the HurricanE one on mine (below). I don't think it's actually possible to get any lower I'm afraid. Edited April 16, 2009 by Mat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FELDJAGER Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Thanks for the info Mat, i have a marui mount on my ics 551 but it just seems to spoil the lines of the rifle imo. Anyone have any info on this mount? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DizBukHaPeter Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) Theres no airsoft equivalent to the pictured rail, only the airsoft sig 556 has anything close. You can probably fabricate a solution by taking off your rear site and screwing in a rail to cover the holes. Edited April 17, 2009 by DizBukHaPeter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mat Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 (edited) FELDJAGER: As ever the best answers come from the real steel site and a bit of research http://swissarms2.ath.cx/index.php?id=30&L=1 Options include an adjustable drum dioptre sight or Picatinny rail receiver with adjustable auxiliary iron sights. While there is indeed a real steel low profile mount, as seen on the upper model it's part of the receiver, as all of the 55X range in airsoft come with the Dioptre Sight Receiver, I believe your only choice would be to custom build... or convert a real steel receiver Edited April 17, 2009 by Mat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FELDJAGER Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Thanks for the info guys, I tested a G36 side rail in the holes removing the rear sight leave and it seems to work. Now i need to find a longer rail and drill a new hole in it. Ill post pics if it works...if it doesnt just pretend i was never here . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Angus_ITA Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 My KJW SIG (licensed) P229 Begadi custom. I polished the chamber and some of the edges, as well as the barrel spring and the edges around the chamber guide to give it a used but I need do some more. http://www.abload.de/img/img_0085iiy0.jpg http://www.abload.de/img/img_00865lra.jpg http://www.abload.de/img/img_00877i0n.jpg Nice gun! I'm going to buy a P229... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FELDJAGER Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) ICS the lower receiver looks a little blue because it got some nasty scratches (not the cool battle hardened type) so i tested out my painting skills with tamiya german grey.

kelo 1 1 Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 After looking at all the fine, fine examples of p226 with PGC kits. Ive convinced myself i have to have one. Few questions, whats the fit like. I know there is the modification to the slide lock required, but is there other mods that have to be done on all the kits or is it just file it to fit? Thanks in advance. Kris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ezek_GrayFox Posted May 9, 2009 Report Share Posted May 9, 2009 (edited) comes with a cd that shows where to file, has verbal instructions but not in english, but the pics are good enough, fairly easy to do, alot of it is common sense as you can feel where the friction is, just take it slowly and file a little bit at a time mine Edited May 9, 2009 by Ezek_GrayFox Quote Link to post Share on other sites
