I can finally post in this thread!
556R - just picked it up this weekend; I went and put a few boxes of Winchester Q3174 through it - since everywhere I checked locally is out of cheap Ruskie ammo (this is my first 7.62x39.) I guess I'm going to have to break out the plastic & order up some mil-surp online now.

No optic for this one yet. It looks kinda weird, but it's just got a lot of break free on it. Just cleaned it.

+1 always wondered which ones would fit Arrendo Arms mag button for the AR- was playing around with it, and it is alright but there is room for improvement. The Arrendo will not let the stock latch in the folded position. I have a design optimized for the SIG 556 in the works, will be the follow on to the Scorpion Grip.

The Knights Armament enlarged mag release that comes with their drop-in AR15 ambi mag release is a great addition to the 556 lower. What the 556 lower still needs: - An adapter to allow the use of AR15 grips (ie Magpul MIAD) - Ambi mag release |

Building the 556 collection back up. Picked up a 2009 NIB classic the other day. I swapped a P556 lower onto it and then added a Magpul stock and tube. Now my green P556 has a classic lower. Then a lightly used 2009 era Classic showed up with a green 55X stock. I had a 550 hand guard and DDLES hand guard ring waiting on it. I think I'm set on 556s for a while...

made a few changes to the 556 and 522. Ditched the Eotech's for 1-4x scopes and added the MFI BUIS for the 556. I think Santa is going to bring me a swiss stock for the 556.

The Burris LRS itself weighs in at 17oz. and the mount is probably at least another 5 to 7 oz. I had a similar configuration for a while using a Trijicon TR24G and trimmed quite a bit of weight going back to an Aimpoint Red dot. I guess it just depends on what you are using the rifle for ey! This configuration of yours looks like it may weigh a fair piece with that flashlight and bipod on the front.

I do not like them
in a house. I do not like them with a mouse. I do not like them here or there. I do not like them anywhere. I do not like Sig Sauer diopter sights. I do not like them, Sam-I-am. I don't like them at all. I prefer the popsicle rear sight much better. I couldn't get used to the V notch sight and the 100m peep blocked out too much periphial view and impossible to use with an optic. Originally Posted By cyclone:

After years of being on the fence for a Sig 556, I finally got one. Had wanted to go with the new 551 style but I got this new for $925 with the Swiss style stock. Handguards were a little loose, so I tightened them up by adding a plastic zip tie aroud them inside the front cap and they are perfect now. Also added a more aggressive flash suppressor. And I really like the look of the Lancer translucent magazines with this rifle.

Nice choice in the Patrol model. It's not so front heavy and offers the same reliability you expect from the 556 platform.

 I REALLY need to get some lower profile rail covers, probably LaRue Index Clips, to replace the XTMs. On a slimmer AR rail, XTMs are no problem. On something with as much beef as my 556, I feel like I'm grabbing a 2x4. |

On something with as much beef as my 556, I feel like I'm grabbing a 2x4. Thanks! It started out with the folding CTR and (sub)standard flip ups that came on the first runs of 556s. I swapped out the front sight with the Samson flip up, right now I've got a LaRue BUIS on the back, and I installed a Griffon charging handle. It lasted that way for a bit before I changed the stock for the UBR. Most recent things swapped out were the trigger guard, and the flash hider. Oh, and since I get it asked a lot, I didn't get it refinished, there was a distributor special edition that were done up FDE at the factory. This was actually the first long gun I ever bought. |
