Oh another question on the 552.... What is the true maximum capacity of the magazines with dummy rounds? (I have seen several websites advertising them as 43 and others as 60.)

I thought it was 43. The old school (not cool) non dummy round ones hold 60.

its just odd that I see several sites saying 43 then I look on DEN Trinity and it says 60... (Thanks for putting up with me to answer all my questions Petary... ;D)

The stock mag with the dummy rounds will take 43 BBs. There is a 60 BB mag but it doesn't have the dummy rounds, and the hicap mag holds 220 BBs. The gun does have a quirk though, it will not shoot the last 2-3 BBs in the stock mag (a design flaw I guess).

No TM gun will shoot the last 2-3 BB's in a standard mag.
EDIT: Perhaps the P90 will since it's top fed. Dunno.

Hey Scythe. If you like the looks of the SG552 get it. Being a TM gun, you can't go wrong. I have one and have no regrets. The stock mag with the dummy rounds look sick! I got it because I liked the look of the gun & it was a TM. Can't lose.
