I'm speaking about the MCX of course, but I do want the MPX as well because like I said, I've always wanted an MP5. But also with the MCX

The MPX and MCX are probably going on my list instead. The design is just freaking sexy.

I'll probably get pistol versions of each so I can change between rifle and pistol and use the sig arm brace for the pistol version on both. |

I kind of figured the rep I spoke with was referring to shipping the guns out to distributors first within the week or so after the show, which of course takes time to work into their systems(assuming they did ship on time). I forget what the initial number shipped would be but I want to say they anticipated moving around 1500-2000 per month after the shipments started. Factory SBRs would come a couple months after the pistols started shipping. |

From what I was told, the aluminum and carbon fiber hand guards are the only options presently. At the 2013 Shot Show they had a hand guard with a built in laser and rotating flashlight, but I was told that was just a prototype and unknown if that will be released or not.

There are multiple style cans for this thing. The integrated baffle stack isn't the only setup that's been imagined. In fact, the video that debuted the MPX, the one where Robert Hirt comes out of the ice, has that exact same can on it. Quoted:

Thought the can looked like a sealed unit when I first saw this picture, but I just noticed the threads on the front cap and endcap. There haven't been too many pictures of the muzzle(or info in general) of the 9mm Sig-SD can until recently.
Would like to see a -K with the can and the longer hand guard. Not sure if that's possible though with the hand guard clearance. Looks fairly close from the photos. |

Love how it's already becoming a favorite with the aftermarket companies (ala KM hand guards) but Sig still hasn't given a date on when they actually plan on releasing it....Magpul Masada 2.0 How is this anything like the Masada? Because it's not out fast enough for you? There is no farming out the manufacture or any such silliness. It cracks me up that we basically hound manufacturers to release info before they're ready and then chastise them for not having it out fast enough. There is a reason magpul handles press releases they way they do. Don't have to deal with this bullshit. |

^^^^totally agree, at least Sig is making sure it's right before the release. You see what Remington did on the R51, total POS.

Haven't they been showcasing this for well over a year now? I mean it's been at at least two SHOT SHOWs. Yes I know, they ran into trouble with the ATF. And yes keymod is aftermarket in the grand scheme of things. 1913 is the industrial standard until the military decides it wants keymod. So if you don't want to call the keymod on the MPX "aftermarket" perhaps a better term is revision 58. Sure kudos to Sig for sticking it to the man (ATF) and great, they're refining and modernizing the weapon. W/ that said I really think they should go ahead and probably start releasing soon. We didn't hear near this much about the 556xi rifles and those are out.
Sig owes me and others nothing, but I just keep seeing them make changes like an artist that is striving for that perfect masterpiece. It will never be perfect, nor should it expect to be.

Honestly, I was looking at the POF MP5 clones but if the MPX gets good reviews I'll probably just go that way. Especially if they put out the model with the "muzzle break" now that the BATFE got their winkie slapped in court.
The version with the brace is appealing as well. I just don't like the side folder bit. I can live with it though. After shooting a real MP5SD (pre86) I'm kind of hooked on pistol caliber carbines with wire stocks.

Where are you getting this info from? So you are saying that the lawsuit case Sig vs BATFE has already been heard in court? Seems kind of fast as it was just filed in April which was not to long ago. Cases in Federal Court could take years to be heard. |

Cases in Federal Court could take years to be heard. I'll try to find it later today but there was a big thread in GD about it. Judge rules that it couldn't be a suppressor on the basis that the ATF's own rulings say it has to reduce sound, which it can't |

MP5 or MPX, MP5 or MPX??????????
It's a very hard decision for me. Might just go ahead with the MP5 since we don't have a clue when these are going to hit the market. I sure would like a integral suppressed MPX. The one stamp non-sbr version would be nice(if it ever makes it to production). |

Quote HistoryI did see that one awhile back but it's not related to Sig Sauers lawsuit and I did not see "Sig Sauer" listed anywhere in that article. When this finally does go to court, hopefully it's the same Federal Court Judge that hears the case. It could still take some time before this happens. |
