Cybergun SIG 556

Yes...yes...another SIG replica. I can't get enough of them! This post is a work in progress since it is very new and still needs to broken in, so this specific post will be updated when there is a need to be updated.

The Unboxing
Pretty standard boxing.Not much else to say other than the high FPS due to chronoing with .12 gram bbs.
The entire package included two SIG style hicaps, a stick battery and a trickle charger, and of course, the gun itself. Otherwise the its pretty much standard packaging.
As you can see in the picture, the gun sight has a hood on it which is not accurate to the real SIG 556, so that hood will be coming off the next time I update this post. Also, the other inaccuracy is the bolt, it should be a different style rather than the 552 style.

The first thing I noticed was that the quality was surprisingly good despite it being a Cybergun product. The gun itself is pretty hefty with a lot of the weight in the frontal area. The hi-caps had a good feeling to them, more of a polymer texture rather than cheap plastic (this applies to the gun as well) and you get two that comes with a clip that binds the two mags together. There was a little bit of wobble in the magwell, so I added  a bit of adhesive velcro strip to make the fit a little bit tighter. I tested the gun with other brand of midcaps as well which included STAR, MAG, and a G&G hicap. 

So from left to right, the SIG hicaps, Star EMag, MAG mag, G&G hicap.

The included SIG mag of course fit perfectly.

The STAR EMag has a good fit.

The MAG M4 Mag fits also.

However, the G&G Hicap does not fit with the magwell modification.

I was able to cut off the hood on the front sight using a dremel but the bolt remains at the moment no clear why on bringing it up to the real verson.


More to come....stay tuned....
