No, they have some English on the checkout though IIRC. Go to the dropdown and click on SIG Sturmgewehre Zweibeinstutzen Wangenauflagen

If you go over $100 (I think that is the magic number) remember to do the customs form.

I had 2 separate orders in the past. One for a 550 Handguard and one for a 553 Stock and pin. I didn't do anything special from my end and they just wrote stock and handguard on the customs slip from their end. Was I wrong

No, you probably weren’t wrong, but people had their Zenitco stuff seized. You’re not getting your money back if Customs takes it, these day better safe than sorry in my book. Someone will hopefully pop in and tell me I am wrong.

Yeah I saw that, this was all before the Zenitco fiasco. Had plenty of Russian stuff come in as well in the past, but all marked very generically on their end. Stuff from England too. I wonder if they are specifically looking for stuff coming from Russia now.

I saw this and just ordered a few smaller stock parts for the total under $100. Hope it works out...
How long does it take to ship and arrive? |

The last stock I ordered took about a week and a half or so IIRC. This was about 6 months ago.

Got tracking last night, so about 2 weeks for it to ship out.
Now how long will it take the Swiss Post to get it into the US? |

Damn, never had them take that long for mine. Wonder what happened?

Apparently my bank assumed the charge from Switzerland was fraudulent and just ignored it. So my original order never went through. Thanks for letting me know, USAA!
 I just re-did the order using a different card; hopefully that one will work. Kept it under $100 USD. Is it possible to order Swiss SG 550 mags from that site? They are on there, but can they be shipped to the US? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Damn, never had them take that long for mine. Wonder what happened? They emailed me Tuesday or Wednesday, apologizing for the delay due to a backlog of orders, but it would go out by the end of the week. I was starting to worry that it wasn't going to happen, but they hadn't charged my card yet either. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Is it possible to order Swiss SG 550 mags from that site? They are on there, but can they be shipped to the US? Yes, people have done it even though the mags are more expensive. Just remember to do the customs form, I would hate for your items to get taken since you don't get your money back and you are out of luck. |

Are those metal? Plastic? One piece? To remove that part, do you have to remove the gas block? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: A US-made 551-A1 lower mated to a P556 upper? I had been meaning to ask: on the short uppers with non-railed handguards... most of them have cups or gaskets on the rear side of the gas block that the handguards fit into. Are those metal? Plastic? One piece? To remove that part, do you have to remove the gas block? Mine came with a railed handguard. When I purchased this "pistol" the plan was always to SBR is and go for the 552/553 look. The cup is metal and made by JMac Customs, and modify the 550 handguard. I followed a guide I found here on Arfcom, it's archived so I can no longer give credit to the original poster. I know it's not perfect, but the 552 was a childhood dream gun. It's taken my 6 years to get it to this point. ETA Yes, had to remove the gas block, its just two roll pins and it came right off. I saw the pic of yours a few days ago on the non-AR SBR thread Weirdly on Jmac's website they show them as OOS, and the description says it was a small batch run. In my search for one OpticsPlanet said they had them in stock. I messaged them and they confirmed they were ready to ship. So I rolled the dice and here I am. |
