My G&G has the same finish. As long as it matches the front metal bits and barrel all is good. I like that better than the jet black, which I think is a US import thing. Like that short mag, too. I think the dude may have a 552. Whatever color it is it looks sweet...and expensive! Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 IIRC the RS Sigs are usually done in the Grey/green finish as standard but there is an option for the jet black for LE. Link to post Share on other sites
APOModern5 Posted July 7, 2018 Report Share Posted July 7, 2018 Man I haven't been this excited for a gun since the KWA Vector came out. My first gun was a jg sig 552 and while the performance was far from superb, the feel of the sig was phenomenal. Now that I own a GHK M4, I'm really excited to see the same internal quality being transferred to my favorite style of firearm. Has GHK said anything besides "second half" of this year or summer for the release date? I'm really hoping it doesn't cost an arm and a leg since I think they will sell the first batch fast.

blobface Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Yeah they have listed all those who pre-ordered though, if you're not on that list you'd have to wait till batch 2. Anyone here pre-ordered one? Link to post Share on other sites
LJ.NL Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Anyone here pre-ordered one?Yep Order complete. And now the wait begins (shipping to The Netherlands so it could take a while..) Link to post Share on other sites

DrAlexanderTobacco Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 I wouldn't be too happy with a store listing my (partially anonymised) name on their website TBH. What a weird and slightly unsafe way to do it. Link to post Share on other sites

LJ.NL Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Batch 1? You're on the list? Yes Yeah I agree, really wierd way of doing it, they could have listed partial order number instead of namesI agree it’s a bit iffy. But in their defence: the preorder was via a google-form/doc so there are no pre-ordernumbers or anything.Plus, they stated they had issues with a missing ‘email’ field, so I guess they had no way of contacting the people who pre-ordered..So it’s a good thing I noticed the facebookpost with my name in it Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Well, you're going to be the Arnies guinea pig then for the SIG Look forward to your review. Link to post Share on other sites
LJ.NL Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Looks like it No problem! Link to post Share on other sites
LJ.NL Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Order has been shipped. Should be around 7 to 10 days until it reaches The Netherlands. From there on it could be 3 or up to 365+ days at customs (not kidding, I have a 2x Stark Arms Glock package at customs from KIC that's missing in action for more then a year now.. Probably confiscated, trademark issue, but it would be nice if they let me know ;D). Seeing the 552 doesn't have any trademarks, it should be no problem. Link to post Share on other sites
LJ.NL Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Looks like it has been renamed to 553. And it's available for anyone to order now (7 items in stock, pre-order text is gone): https://samoon.com.tw/gbb-airsoft-gun/GHK553/ghk-553-gbbr Always interesting to have the manual:http://ljagtproducties.nl/ghk553/ghk-sig-553.pdf The last page shows other types of hand guards: Link to post Share on other sites

Dimitri MdP Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Maple Leaf has already developed a hop chamber for it and they are about to release it. That makes this gun so much higher in my wish list Link to post Share on other sites
LJ.NL Posted August 15, 2018 Report Share Posted August 15, 2018 And there she is (went trough customs pretty fast!): Looks & feels superb, solid as a rock! I'll have some test runs with it this weekend. The search for a nice optic begins.. Link to post Share on other sites

Wooly_Booly Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Keeping up with the Hong Kong crowd, there are a few issues with the first batch. Two biggest issues off the bat is that the sprint inside the front pin makes removal much more difficult than it should be. Pair that with the really unchangable gap between the receivers and it’s left a sour taste in some mouths. Also, there were a few cases with the magazine well on preorder models were too narrow for the magazines and prevented any feeding without filing the shell. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 I'm not a Sig expert but I'm not seeing much in the way of receiver gap. Where is that at? Link to post Share on other sites
DiscoBiscuit Posted August 18, 2018 Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 Thanks for the update, first batch orders should always sell at a discount. 8 hours ago, Wooly_Booly said: Keeping up with the Hong Kong crowd, there are a few issues with the first batch.

I'm not either and don't have one yet, (probably won't get one, not a big fan of GHK or their guns) that's just what I've heard so take it with a grain of salt. The is the spacing between the upper and lower where they meet. Link to post Share on other sites
hitmanNo2 Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 I've looked at a few RS ones and I can't see much of a gap. Link to post Share on other sites
icolater Posted August 19, 2018 Report Share Posted August 19, 2018 Quote Not really into the look of this gun but the fact it's made by ghk (the god of gbbrs) makes me want one. Link to post Share on other sites
