Cabelas Sig 552
 

Hey guys,
Does anyone know what brand / make of Sig 552 that Cabelas is selling?
Is it the JG version or Swiss Arms??

Thanks.

JG is the Swiss Arms version.

So, is the one that Cabelas is selling a JG?

Its a Cybergun re-brand of a JG.

Do you know if it can be upgraded with TM internal / external parts?

Yes it can.

Thanks for the help....

so this brand is good or what?

See that big long gun in my signature? It's a JG SG550, its exactly the same internally apart from the longer inner barrel, and I put in a new hop up rubber. On the 552 you won't need to replace the rubber, because you probably won't be looking for as much range as I am. They're very reliable internally, but I would suggest a reshimming.

What's your definition of "good"? I find a lot of new guys get pissed when we say anything under $350-$400 isn't "good" (and that number USED to be $600) and actually suggest some "good" guns like CA/TM/G&P etc.

my define of good is won't break down easily if handle careful

even if your careful a lemon exists and even breakdowns, failures, internal fuckage (is that a word? :D) or bad QC that makes the "good" gun, as you say

My advice: If it ain't broke, DON'T FIX IT!

well I went to Xtreme tactics since they has Sig 552 for rental, I don't know brand but it do wonderful.

It was either a TM or a JG. I highly doubt it was ICS.

They're Swiss Arms, there's a bunch of boxes in the back.

Sig 552 at ET
 

They are the same items available from Cabela's and are used as a rental. ET has told me they work quite well but might not be as tough in the end as something full metal. Keep in mind these are for rent. One can reasonably expect that you might treat it with a little more care than someone out on a stag night first time combat trial. Even then, given the price difference, a place like ET could go through 2 or 3 of these guns before reaching the CA price point. Just think of how you can build up your armoury in the same way.

Swiss Arms doesn't make airsoft guns. They're either JG, TM, or ICS. They may be rebrands with Swiss Arms licensing.

I bought this one back in the fall.

gamed it once (in subzero temp) and the piston head blew apart.

around $200-$300 later:

-DeepFire titanium tooth piston
-Modify aluminum piston head
-Modify aluminum cylinder head
-Sorbo Pad
-Prometheus M100 spring
-Modify air seal nozzle
-Shim kit
-Modify double-groove stainless bushings
-new Hop up rubber & bucking
-Madbull tightbore barrel
-11V Lipo battery

OK now, after all that, I know my way around a V3 mechbox pretty good, and I've got a really good performing machine. Nice and quiet, precise, and quick on the ROF. Not the way I'd recommend for everyone else to go, but it worked for me.

I have one and i love it, I've had one problem where an o-ring split and jammed the piston causing the sector gear to strip the teeth off it but a few bucks and that was fixed. Just threw a hurricane tune up kit in and reinforced piston and i'm good to go.

hard to believe they is same brand, box said there is top rail and one side rail, I rent XT(Xtreme tactics) one, they don't have top rail, just one side rail. But I will check box again. I does love Sig 552. only issue I have is I need outdoor gun since I have Mp7 For CQB. I still think Mp7 is supreme CQB weapon. I test Sig 552 from XT, for distance. from one outer wall to other outer wall. idk how it do since scope system suck. I know XT's outer wall is least 75+ ft apart in certain area (dark area, for any local who know place, tan side door to black side door I feel this is 75+ ft)

the XT sig 552 are from SIR they are the same ones! they do fine outdoors, wont get range like an AK or a M16 but they are good, talk to diamond SEA on MAA site he was using a sig 552 outdoors last season i belive.

The SIG 552 that XT uses were all bought from cabela's.
Edit DAMN shane you beat me to it! lol.

o.o
well look like I need to search for parts that install top rail for sig 552.

This is the one you'll need: Tokyo Marui Mount Base for SIG Series
