There's a "stock" with an extension that you will be able to use any AR style stock with. Essentially just a buffer tube (with no buffer or spring, obviously). |

So this is the best 5 shot group I could get today at 100 yards with winds ENE 4-5 mph, using XM193 and my PA 1-6X. Again, there is one flyer (no surprise to me).
With that said, it had no issues hitting clays at 200 yards and steel all the way to 400. For now, I'm going to swap the PA 1-6X out for an Eotech and place the 1-6 in a mini-recce build. I had much better results with my SCAR 16 same ammo, scope and range...too bad I sold it. |

Quick NFA question WRT the MCX.
I currently plan to get the blackout pistol when they become available again. The swappable stocks have me intrigued. I'm thinking that I might SBR the MCX pistol, but keep the stock er... brace... around too. So, according to ATF determinations, you can go from non-NFA weapon to NFA weapon by remanufacturing it on a Form-1 and again by removing all NFA components you can return the item to its previous non-NFA configuration, even though it will remain on the registry unless you send them a written notification to permanently remove it. I also know from other determinations you can go from pistol->rifle->pistol again but you can never go from rifle->pistol without a Form-1 because if originally manufactured as a rifle, always a rifle. So, my thought is to SBR it, and if I travel to shoot in a state without SBRs I can just put the folding brace back on and travel with the pistol. Does that sound like a realistic plan, or crazy talk? I currently own an AR SBR, and a couple of cans, so I'm not a complete NFA newbie. |

It depends on what day of the freaking week it is with the ATF whether what you describe is legal and the reality is the chances of you being "caught" with a SBR'd lower in a pistol config is probably pretty slim.

Since Sig designed the MCX with an easily swappable barrel, it's likely that any conversion kits they sell will just consist of the barrels and bolts. Doubtful they would sell them assembled with uppers since that somewhat defeats the purpose of the design. |

I still don't get QD barrels in the sense of caliber swaps.
The AR15 once again rules this area. When you swap calibers or barrels, your sights and optics will all have to be re-zero'd whereas an AR15 if you just swapped uppers, you could already have your dopes or what not leaving the optic attached to your choice upper. Still watching this closely, however, as I do think this is about the closest thing to giving the AR/Stoner design a run for it's money. It has just enough familiarity to be considered an evolution of the platform, but enough new features to greatly depart from 50-60 years of the AR15. Hope they get the piston 300BO figured out for good, also. |

Hope they get the piston 300BO figured out for good, also. QD bbls for quick caliber swaps is mostly a marketing gimmick. What it does it easily allow individuals or organizations with high firing schedules or those who want to change the caliber (for whatever reason) do so without needing the special tools required for the AR. It's not "quick change" per say as much as "user serviceable". It basically retains the modularity of what already exists in the AR, without needing an upper vice, barrel wrench, torque wrench, punches and some time; all you need is a pre-set seekong torque wrench and an allen wrench. Larger organizations like USASOC can go through a barrel or 2 for each individual doing pre-deployment workout, and that creates bottlenecks and backlogs as the armorers take the guns in to rebarrel. While not as applicable for the civilian user, it allows us to play with calibers and configurations without the tool and workspace needs of an AR, which frankly is a good thing. |

Agreed on that aspect. Just in civvy land, it really makes no sense. Still pulling for the MCX though. Doubt it will win too many contracts as most have dug their feet in with the AR platform, but eventually something has to give, and Sig's innovation is really helping drive competition.

Hope they get the piston 300BO figured out for good, also. SIG has gone beyond what others have so far done with the QD/field adaptable rifle by producing a modular upper and lower receiver. While most of the civilian users probably won't do much with swapping parts once they have their rifles configured to thier liking I can see a pretty big benefit to this modularity from an LE standpoint. Have a large department that wants a 14.5 or 16 inch barrel for patrol? The MCX can do that. Have a boat patrol unit that wants a shorter platform for working on the confined space of the boat? Change out the barrel. Your ATV or motor squad wants something very compact for carrying on a bike? Change out the stock and barrel both. Your SWAT guys want a 20" DMR? Add a longer barrel and a rifle stock. SWAT now wants a short little 300BLK with a suppressor? No problem. You get the idea. The possibilities are almost endless and the modular parts can be changed and allow the shooter to configure his assigned rifle with simple tools based on his duty assignments without a large workshop or a specially trained/equipped armorer. All we need now is for SIG and/or the aftermarket to fully embrace the MCX design and start producing barrels, stocks, etc. |

WRT the charging handle preference.
I do kind of wish they had done something like Adcor did with their design. A forward charging handle is my favorite placement, and Adcor came up with a solution to have it both ways. That being said, it would obviously add more weight. |

The MCX was developed in response to a request by "top tier units" who wanted a more powerful, quieter alternative to the MP5SD. That need birthed the honeybadger, which after a bit of trials was formalized into the LVAW. SIG worked on LVAW development, eventually turning it into a multi-caliber weapon (MCX) and splitting off a SMG of the same base design (MPX). That same contract specified an M4 manual of arms. Which is why there's no ambi stuff and it retains the same controls as an AR. Additionally while many seem to like a forward charging handle, it doesn't play well when you have a PEQ-15 and weapon light mounted. It's already difficult enough to effectively balance the mounting of modern night fighting tools, before adding the charging handle. Then you have to complicate the system and it's handguards, plus as you stated it would add more weight for no gain. |

Another down side is that with varying gas block locations and lengths of op-rods it would add complexity to the system. |

Retractable MP5-ish stock. How is it compared to the original folding stock? Worth it? I like the original but this is really taking my interest. I say it's definitely worth it but this is just my opinion. I believe there are other stocks in the making as well. If I'm lucky to get my hands on them I'll report on those as well |

Should be shipping end of this month Are rifles going to ship in this stock configuration or will the skeleton stock be the standard configuration with this stock being any accessory? Awesome. Just order from sig store? I don't know for sure. I know that the MPX is now shipping with keymod rails. But as far as the stock on the MCX, I've only seen and heard that the skeletonized stock is standard. |

Not that anyone asked but let it be known that I don't work for Sig. I do get my info, obviously, from a good source. |

For information, the 5.11 Shorty M4 works great with the side folding Skeleton stock/20 round mag and optic, dot or low power variable.

Ugh....so many choices these days. MCX, Keltec RDB, Tavor, RRA LAR-47 or CMMG Mutant, new SR15 Mod 2 MLOK, or do I want to do a clone Mk18 or Block II build lol.
Narrowed it down to either the MCX or LAR-47 at this point in time. I feel like with the MPX debacle and with Sig seeming to constantly change stuff on the MCX, I'm not sure if I should wait it out a bit or what. On the flip side, that election is getting closer and closer to being here and we, as freedom loving scary black rifle owners could be in a world of hurt soon....so many choices, not enough time/money. |

Only had a 4x scope when testing the 262 accuracy, it's a 2 moa gun, no worries, didn't expect it to be a precision rig. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Your absolutely right about the SCAR and ACR stocks not working on the MCX I didn't think of that. I was just thinking something that's maybe adjustable for length with a little more width for the cheek. The 308 with side charger would be epic. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: They need something more comfortable. Since when are options bad? I thought everyone had seen the unreleased folding/collapsing stock SIG had shownshown. There definitely needs to be something more than the thin folder or the HK slider. But when I think of an ACR or SCAR stock I think of it having a cheek piece which would not work with the MCX Your absolutely right about the SCAR and ACR stocks not working on the MCX I didn't think of that.

just put the upper on a AR lower. Maybe most of you guys don't like AK folders either? Quote HistoryQuoted:

No, the thinking is that every design NEEDS NEEDS NEEDS to have it's own expensive proprietary stock or it's stupid. Look at the visceral gut reactions people have when they see AR stock adapters for AKs, SCARs, and ACRs. IMO, there's nothing "wrong looking" about the AR stock adapters for the MCX, as it's outline and height over board is the same as an AR, it also doesn't need an adjustable cheek riser. I've always thought the MFT minimalist stock looked awesome on it. However, SIG has shown their proprietary MCX folding/sliding stock, which will cover the concerns of the "must be proprietary" crowd. |

Question, I plan on a bolt gun using the MDT LSS chassis and use a folder for storage and transport. I currently have a XLR folder and chassis for one, thing is the XLR and MDT folder does not a lock, even friction while folded. Does the Sig version lock when folded or have a friction like the skeleton one? I haven't seen much or even pictures of the Sig AR adapter to somewhat answer this.
I would use a Magpul CTR with riser on the bolt gun. Appreciate any feedback. |

It isn't a folding buffer tube, it's a hinge adapter that a standard tube screws into. The adapter attaches to the pic rail on the back of the MCX receiver. |

I thought it would have a hub like the skeleton and would fold. |
