Unlike the open-post front sight of the standard SIG556, the Classic features a heavy-duty hooded front sight unit like found on the Swiss 550 series. Two rows of cooling vents-located on the top of the upper handguard and on the bottom of the lower handguard-help dissipate heat. It comes drilled and tapped to accept three optional strips of polymer Picatinny rail at the 3, 6 and 9 o'clock positions. The synthetic, two-piece fore-end system of the Classic is also similar to the SG551 LB with its streamlined shape and molded ribs. Also, a secondary buttpad adding an extra inch of length is included. To retain it in its folded position, the stock has a latch that interfaces with a protrusion on the rear right side of the Classic's fore-end.įor further flexibility, three interchangeable internal plates included with the stock allow a shooter to adjust it to preset lengths or leave it fully adjustable. In addition, the stock can fold alongside the receiver with a push of a half-moon-shaped release on the forward left side of the stock where it attaches to the receiver. Adjustments are accomplished through squeezing the integral lever located on the bottom portion of the stock. The triangular-shaped synthetic stock of the SIG556 Classic is patterned much like that of its Swiss siblings and is adjustable for length of pull over three settings. In response, the company developed a new variant of the carbine dubbed the SIG556 Classic with sights, fore-end and a stock assembly akin to the original Swiss offering. subsidiary of SIG Arms, quickly realized there was a market for a version styled more closely like its Swiss inspiration. shooters certainly took notice, and not all of them thought these modifications were for the better. It also readily accepts M16 magazines, features a redesigned fore-end system with built-in Picatinny rail strips and an AR-15-style collapsible stock assembly, making the Americanized SIG556 look quite different from its Swiss cousin. The SIG556 lower receiver is manufactured from 7075-T6 forged-aluminum alloy rather than pressed steel like its Swiss sibling, reducing overall weight by about a pound. While the SIG556 featured elements of its Swiss counterpart-such as a full-length gas piston system, pressed-steel upper receiver and similar overall configuration-it differed in some significant ways. The SIG556 resembled the SG551 LB, a carbine variant of the SG550 designed to accept a bayonet. Note: Pistol and accessories not included.When SIG Sauer introduced its SIG556 carbine two years ago, many American shooters were excited by the prospect of a U.S.-manufactured, semi-automatic version of Switzerland's heralded SIG SG550.
