Are the TM M16 Mags Compatible with the TM SIG 552?

[[]D[][]\/[][]D]

Exactly what the title of this thread says, are the TM M16 mags compatible with the TM SIG 552? The reason why I ask this, is because I found a review on the TM SIG 552 on this Slovak airsoft site. I can't read Slovak so I don't know what the caption says under the picture. But apparently in the picture the TM M16 mags are compatible with the TM SIG 552. I just want to confirm if this is true or not.



Here's the link to the full article: http://www.airsoftklub.sk/clanok.php?id=31

Maybe they are modified somehow, because from what I can see, the SIG has one of the ambidextrous AK-style mag releases that requires a little lip at the rear of the mag. M-16 mags don't have that lip.

I can see it being possible but I just mailed away my Sig552 a few hours ago so I cant confirm the fit. The Sig552 mag catch is at the back with the hook on the front, you need to rock them in like AK mags, hook the front and roll it back till it catches. I guess if you added the appropriate holes/gouges on an M16 mag it will work. In that picture though the M16 mag doesnt look like its that far in the mag well though.

Theres no way in hell any mag from a M16 will fit in a Sig

A. It does have the lip for the mag catch to grab on to
B. BB's in the Sig mags load at the middle M16 mags load at the front
C. The guys a big douche

I bet the mag is just lying there by the gun. Although I dont speak Slovak, I bet the phrase under the picture explains that it wont work:

"Å*koda len, že táto kombinácia nie je funkčná."
...................this combination don't function"

Yeah, I just too a look at my friends M16 mag, and the BB's feed at the front of the mag, whereas the SIG mag feeds the BB's in the middle. So they aren't compatible for sure. Thanks anyways guys for your replies.
