I love the platform and still have a 556 Patrol Swat. It's the last of 9 variations of the 556 I've cycled through the collection over the years. Runs like a top... Roswell Crash - July, 1947, CIA Formed - Sept, 1947 | ||

I have a swat patrol as well, it's always run like a champ for me. Who makes that handguard yo u have and where did you get it? I have the clunky quad rail and don't care for it. | |||

The quad rail is still on mine, those are alien armor extended rail covers slid over it from alienarmorgear.com Roswell Crash - July, 1947, CIA Formed - Sept, 1947 | |||

Thanks, for $30 I might have to give them a try. | |||

With bad intent |
I moved my last 556 a couple years back. Like you, I think I had 5 or 6 at one point. Buds had them on clearance for 879.00, how could you not buy a few at that price. In hindsight I probably should have kept one but the MCX was calling my name. ________________________________ | |||

They are extended rail covers from alienarmorgear.com Roswell Crash - July, 1947, CIA Formed - Sept, 1947 | |||

Thanks. I thought they were replacement handguards. They don't look like just extended rail covers that go over an existing railled handguard. | |||

I have two both NIB. An original fish gill w/o the canted rail that was bought the first day they were released in my neck of the woods and a 556 Classic with the collapsable and folding stock. __________________________ | |||

I still have my old 556 SWAT, great rifle but a bit heavy compared to an AR. | |||
|

Absolutely love both of mine. A first gen SWAT patrol and a standard gen 2. | |||

Still have my original fish gill early early release. Shoots great. It wears a set of irons, an Aimpoint and a Scout light. "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | |||

I had three at one point. Original, classic, and swat. They were a bit heavy, but they shot well. Divorce got me out of the 556 business. | |||

I own a 556xi if that counts? Nice rifle but loves to send spent casings out with purpose striking shooters next to me in line. They often ask the RSOs to move. Accurate as hell. Nice rifle. It sucks that Sig has made it an orphan. Chris | |||

I've still got mine,an early release with lots of Swiss parts.Good shooter and dependable as can be.Has a Samson quad rail and an Elcan ATOS 1.0 red dot .One of my favorite rifles. | |||

I still have 3 of my orig 7. I have an unfired DMR 556008, and 2 of the 556302 with the folding stock/quad rail/and quick thread flash hider because I like this rifle for it's folding variation, and the flash hider I can attach the SDN-6 to. Yes heavy, yet more reliable. Runs clean, yet dents brass and throws them into next week. With the sudden price drop which cost me a chunk of change, and support and parts for the platform gone, I have yet to forgive Sig. ------------------ The plural of anecdote is not data. -Frank Kotsonis | |||

Let's see I still have: 556R Classic G2 556 SWAT Patrol Swiss Stock 556 SWAT Swiss Stock 522 Classic IDPA ESP SS | |||

We gonna get some oojima in this house! |
I really prefer the way it shoulders compared to the straight stock ARs. I'm just afraid to pick one up because they are gone. Parts may get hard to come by. I have an M400 because it's an AR, but I'm not in love with the platform. ----------------------------------------------------------- TCB all the time... | |||
