Re: Sig 556 sbr?
I have one with folding stock. It's an ak with ar controls and 3 more pounds. The only draw back is how heavy it is ( to me) everything other is GTG. On a side note this gun is built like a tank.

Re: Sig 556 sbr?
I have always liked them myself. A friend of mine bought one a few years back and has barely shot his ar's sense. I have just been thinking of doing a sbr and have always liked the 552 but with the 556 i can use my ar mags.

Re: Sig 556 sbr?
I've had a factory 556 sbr for awhile now and only have a couple complaints. Biggest one being is that it's pretty heavy especially on the front end because of the gas system. Running my m4-2000 adds even more but the long stroke gas system also makes it pretty loud to suppress. Going to take the swat rail off because the way it mounts is very loose on the front, and it weighs enough as is.
Other than that I can't really complain about anything else with the gun. Shooting it slinged folded is a blast and probably what I have most fun with it lately. The 45 throw is awesome and the trigger isn't half bad. Haven't had a problem with it suppressed or unsuppressed, and don't know if it will ever jam because it throws my brass 20' with or without the m4-2000. Recoil is smooth and light but it should be for how heavy a tank it is. Folded it was a good bit shorter than my 7.5" m16 but if I had to do it over I'd probably get a sbr ar15.

Re: Sig 556 sbr?
I agree that it is not optimal to suppress but it is an accurate, reliable and easy shooting SBR. I found it more comfortable to shoot than an AR SBR while unsuppressed.
As an aside the 556 SBR slings brass about 25 feet!

Re: Sig 556 sbr?
My friend runs one with nothing but steel cased cheap ammo and has had zero problems. The thing just keeps going.
I love sig and I love the setup but the thing is a pig. I just wish it was closer in weight to a AR
