Replacement SIG 556 forearm

[Sniper_Wolf_666]

I am currently turning my SIG 556 patrolman carbine into a DMR. the Rifle I have doesn't have any rails on the forearm (only has a single rail on the receiver) and I am looking for a quad-rail forearm that will fit with the 18" Heavy Contour Barrel I am putting on her to replace the basic 16" carbine barrel. I am having a hard time finding a forearm tho. I've found plenty of the SIG 556 rifles that comes with a quad-rail forearm but obviously I don't wanna buy a whole new rifle for 1,300$ just to get the forearm off it lol. So I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of a website that sells SIG 556 parts. Any help would be appreciative.


Oh and this being my first post on this site, wanted to intoduce myself. The names Josh, I am a 26yr old Musician/Guitarist & Producer/Audio Engineer from Seattle, WA. Been shooting firearms most my life and In the past couple years since I've had the funds and the time, I've been getting even more into and starting a nice collection of various modern and classic firearms. Anything from WWI to present. I am especially into Long-Range Marksmanship and have been getting into competitions and such.

So that about sums my firearm history up and a lil bit about myself. Nice to meet you all.

I run a Troy on my sbr and like it. But just know your adding more OZ to the gun. If I was you I would get a couple of the magpul plastic rail add on and drill them into your hand guards. If you don't like it than shell out the 300 for the rail.
Welcome to the hide its a passion and an addiction.

Re: Replacement SIG 556 forearm

Yea I know its gonna add weight but I'm not worried about that. As a DMR I plan on mostly shooting it from the prone anyways and its still gonna be fine shooting it from the standing or off-hand position. The particular forearm I am looking for is also skeltonized somewhat so that will help reduce added weight. And it looks really good too so that's why I am trying to find that specific forend instead of just adding rails to the one that's already on it. Already considered going that route. But I really just want the forearm I am looking for. So does anyone know where I can find parts for SIG rifles that include forends/forearms whatever u wanna call it lol
