What will your SIG 556 look like?

All you need is this with AR15 mags and you are done...

SIR, NO SIR!

One of THESE with AR mags, please....

[Todd.K]

These are made in the USA, so I don't think a 551 would be any faster into production.

I handled one at SHOT and didn't like the top rail/charging handle setup too well. I went to pull the bolt back and raked my finger against the scope mount on the rail.

I think they did good with the handguard, it's not all rails so it lacks in the CDI factor but it has enough for a vert grip and a flashlight.


First FN and then Sig, good times for AW fans as manufactures are starting production in the USA. I hope more join in, Styer? H&K?

I was very disappointed in the Sig rifle at shot. I couldn't believe that they put that elevated rail and an AR type stock. They should have left it like the original series but using the AR mags would have been fine.

If they build them like the shot show models I am afraid that I won't be getting myself one like I had planned on.

Supposedly Steyr recently submitted their TDP to the ATF and are awaiting approval. IIRC, the American AUG A3 is going to be called the AUR or something along those lines.

H&K is going to be reintroducing the SL8-1 and the USC to the American market. I haven't heard when they're expected to hit shelves though.

I wouldnt bother with an SL8 but if HK cranked out a G36, that might get my attention

If they make one like this available, I'd buy one:

You may have seen this pic before....

My Ideal 556 right there. I'd fork over quite a bit of cash if that is what SIG made

I bailed on my pre-order. All the internet rumors of pinned collapsible stocks and no flash hider made me think of the "good" old days when Slick Willie was in office.

I'll wait until the finished product is on the market before sinking any money into one.

Plus, I'm really digging FN's offerings for civvies.

[Todd.K]

Well, the raised rail is the only way you are going to mount say an EOTech on there and still be able to use the charging handle from what I can remember.

Damn you SIG and your lack of updates
