It is the shizzle. What of it? Just kidding. I saw another 556 with one and it looked great. The way I have mine set up, it allows the Eotech to sit forward of the charging handle. It looks unconventional but shoulders well and feels perfect. |

When I spoke to Sig last week about parts availability, I was told there are 556's in FLAT DARK EARTH being sent to distributors in a few weeks.
Yes, that's what I said. FDE bitches! |

Okay. I put the CTR back on because I decided not to go ahead with the other project I had in mind which required the CTR.
Also new is the YHM Phantom suppressor mount. ATF cashed the check 13 days ago. Hopefully in a few weeks I will be posting new pics of my Sig 556 wearing a YHM 7.62 Phantom.

Ok...what sights do you have on there? Looks like a 551 front sight? I want something other than the Samson front sight, a fixed sight, and a proper height fixed rear sight to go with it. Picture post:

I pay her very well, heck she even sleeps with me! She is also my wife, but it sounds better when you tell people you are sleeping with your secretary. I am shocked on the color. It looks so good in person, to me it makes the black look "plain." It's even made me start changins some of my ARs to FDE. |

Kind of off topic but what are my choices for front sights on my 556? I currently have an eotech 553 and dont like it so I think im going to go with irons. I know of these:
-Samson flip -Sig OEM -Aurora hood Do any of the YHM front flip sights fit the 556? Also any standard ar15 BUIS will work for a rear sight correct? |
