The five-port flash suppressor is different from the 550’s but does the job just fine. An AR15-type magazine release on the SIG556 is different from the 550’s paddle release, but I don’t mind that, since I shoot AR15s a lot and instinctively use my trigger finger to operate this style magazine release. The well-designed cocking handle and safety/selector levers are the same as on the 550. On the other hand, the SIG556 has a Picatinny rail, which allows quick mounting of optical sights. My 550’s side-folding stock is the most comfortable I’ve ever used, and I missed it on the SIG556.
I’ll admit, however, that I was a bit prejudiced because it used a CAR-type telescoping stock. I considered the SIG556 an excellent carbine, one of the best on the market. In fact, the SIG556 combines the best features of three excellent carbines: the SIG 550, AR15, and AK47. It also showed typical Sig Sauer quality.
Simply, it combined many aspects of the 550 upper with a lower designed to take AR15/M16 magazines. Once the SIG556 was introduced I saw things about it I liked. I was glad that even a partial 550 would be readily available, but I was a bit skeptical.
Then, on a visit to Sig Sauer, I learned that the carbine would not actually be a 500, but a hybrid between the 550 and AR15. So I was thrilled when I heard rumors that Sig Sauer was considering producing a version of the 550 in the US.
