Sig owners, what should I do?

Here's something to consider.
The Sig 556 is a great, awesome gun. Certainly a better weapon than the one I have. I'm not knocking it all.
However, the one thing about a 556 is that you can't upgrade the base components, add and upgrade features, like you can with a regular AR. Obviously there's really not much need to upgrade a $1,500 Sig. But upgrading is fun.
One of my friends has a 556. He loves it. But he sees all his friends that have regular ARs, like me, having a blast going through the upgrading process, researching the next cool thing to switch out, the fun they have the first time they try out the latest modifications, and he's kind of bummed out that he can't do that - so much so, in fact, that he's considering getting a base AR so he can join in the fun.
Just something to consider.
