. When I bought my 553 from ratworx they had 40 30’s. 25 bucks each. Paid a grand for them. I got shot 10 more from various places and I got 5 20’s. It’s a sickness.

I am a little bit behind you. :) ^
is it safe to shoot XM193 out of a .223 marked 551-2 SP Swat? Didn't know if that was done for export purpose or because it really should use .223
Yes it's fine. They are all 5.56
Thanks, I thought I recalled reading that but when a buddy asked me recently, I wasn't 100% sure
Hey, just a shot in the dark, but is there any way to get 80% SG receivers or flats?
Negative. The 55x construction is spot welded and furnace brazed. I’m sure you could skip the furnace brazing. The Sig Sauer USA 556 lacked brazing, though I would not rake my cues from them on how to build a quality 55x rifle.
I would love to have some receiver blanks/flats and bolt rails. I have a bunch of trunions and barrels.
JDI has mentioned before offering US-made receivers for Swiss parts kits. No update on when yet.
