SIG 552 laser modification


Gibbs

Recommended Posts

After I got my SIG522 I decided to remove that fake gas block (adjuster) that actually works on the SIG556 and replace it with a laser with remote switch.  Got the laser at Walmart for about 30 bucks or so, and I drilled and tapped the side holes 8-32 for set screws.  That kept the laser firm and mounted toward the top so that the elevation and windage screws would still be accessible and able to adjust it.  Does it work?  Raccoon on the porch with the laser dot between the eyes, as well as the possum near the side of the house (same condition at night) would attest to that... but they are not with us anymore.  Wherever the dot is, the bullet hits.

Also, on the safety bar switch I drilled a small dimple and filled it with red paint, so that when the safe is on, that dimple is covered.  But when in the fire position, the red shows and you can physically feel the dimple even in total darkness.

Same thing on the opposite side.  The SIG522 has ambidextrous safety switch.
