Just an FYI Gemech HALO suppressors fit all SIGs.

is that a function of mating to an A2 birdcage? So anything would fitment for A2 should work as well? (I have a 14.3" 551-SB I'd like to run a can on)

I “researched” this a little before I got my 553 lb and I came to the internet conclusion that old halos would but new ones would not fit the integral flash suppressors. Very well could be wrong.

The one I wanted was the 553 LB. Not too short. Not too long. No pugnose barrel. Sooorta M4ish. Preferably flattop.

You all think it’s a joke but I can literally pocket carry an MP5K.

If I want a super short gun, I have ARs. I didn’t dislike them but don’t think I got the right one. Doubt I would suppress.

Does anyone know if SanSwiss is importing 553 lb flattops?

You can custom order about any configuration of 553 you want last I knew.

Actually any NATO diameter flash. HALOs run on SIGs, HK 93/33, AUGs, etc. Will absolutely run on your 551-SB.

Different guy than GB.

Cool.

My normal LGS has a Halo on the shelf. I’ll swing by later and try it out. Been there long enough it’s the Titanium version and tag is faded by the sun
