Now that the ATF has came out and said it's a no no to shoulder the sig brace....I'm guessing we have two more weeks to wait as Sig has to recall all MPX's w/ braces shipped to distributors

It's not that we can't own the sig brace...but I'm guessing if this ATF letter that came out catches any steam, Sig will no longer be shipping their pistols with them. I could be wrong though. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I hadn't thought of that... Why? It doesn't change anything from the manufacturer's standpoint. The brace isn't "illegal", only shouldering a firearm <16" OAL barrel with the brace without an SBR stamp is illegal. Continuing to use, therefore sell, the brace as it was intended is perfectly fine. Doesn't affect anything from the configuration of firearms. Now, will it affect sales of the brace? Most definitely. |

I am sorry but sometimes some people remind me of Henny Penny from the children's nursery rhyme fame.
If I am in my backyard in the woods and I shoulder my SIg Brace, I don't own one, and shoot my MPX, no one owns one, aside from the NSA K-11 satellite orbiting at 23,000 miles who is going to know? |

That's the problem. Much like almost everything else in the NFA, it's unenforceable unless they expect us to narc on each other, catch us in the act, or confiscate range camera footage (not that any of these are a likely reality). I still won't be shouldering one. |

Also, just carry the original letter that ATF said it was OK. Not a dam court in this country will do a dam thing about it with that letter. There is a lot of people that have that arm brace and possess the original letter. If the same people never check the Internet or LGS, they will have never known about the change with the Sig Brace and nobody would get in trouble over that. ATF would have to find out who all has those Sig Brace's and notify everyone about the change to do anything about it. I am sure Sig will also file another law suit over this.

If you as a cop knew the law and the individual didn't, you are still well within the law to lock him up regardless of his ignorance. So, like I said, ignorance of the law is no excuse. And there is tons of case law to support that. |

If they see a letter that said it was ok to shoulder a Sig Brace, that would be the end of it, we don't sit in our cars trying to research federal gun laws. Yes I know the new law now, so I quess I will be a dick then and forward the case to the Feds every time I see someone shoot the Sig Brace on their shoulder. Are you happy now? |

Well from what I am being told today, the MCX and MPX have begun shipping in small numbers. I will continue to get more info as the week goes on but I have been getting different answers from different people there, which is very frustrating. I do have a video of me shooting the MPX but not sure how to post it. At Shot they also have the 16" solid barel MPX (no muzzle break) on display with the key mod rail. I will get pics of it tomorrow and post it if I can figure out how to do it.

Also telescoping stock not available for conversion to SBR until later. We will see... |

The MPX was developed from the MCX so it has been around longer. The MPX will be coming, they just had a part that was failing and from what I hear at Shot, problem has been fixed. |

Didn't SIG say recently that SBRs we're going to be the easiest way to get an MPX right out of the gate?
I saw one at the Lancer booth yesterday, will try to get confirmation from SIG if the booth is rEmotely accessible. |

Was a little confusing.
They will offer the stocks, but some of accessories may lag as they use the parts to build up sell-able MPX. |

Even Sig has to do a transfer process to the class 3 dealer who is getting the SBR, so it would be much more difficult than just shipping out the pistols first. The SBR is coming, but not first. I saw the same MPX at the Lancer booth today but that was not an SBR, it had the arm brace, which is sold as a pistol. |

No, how would it be easier? Even Sig has to do a transfer process to the class 3 dealer who is getting the SBR, so it would be much more difficult than just shipping out the pistols first. The SBR is coming, but not first. I saw the same MPX at the Lancer booth today but that was not an SBR, it had the arm brace, which is sold as a pistol. Quote HistoryQuoted:

They didn't have any SBRs in their booth, and the only model that had one of the two stocks formerly reserved for the SBRs was the collapsible mounted on a 16" carbine that had a screwed up looking flashier integrally machined on the end of the barrel. I gotta say that I'm out now that I have seen the mpx in person, I'm disappointed and it's a function of expectations on my part exceeding reality. If a factory suppressed SBR is offered, I might make an exception, but to be honest there were a shitload of 9mm ARs at the show that are more appealing to me now. Wish It wasn't the case, but there it is. Didn't care for the Skorpion as much as I thought I would either, this trip is saving me a hell of a lot of money getting to see things in the flesh, and I recommend you guys wait until the MPX gets to your local dealer before putting a deposit on one. |

I agree with The Other Dave. Sig has been showing the MPX at SHOT for 3 yrs now. Wait till it come to a dealer near you. If you drop a deposit, you may be holding up money that could get you something else in the meantime. A lot of hype from a lot of MFG's about their SBR/pistols that are "supposed" to be available at SHOT. They are available when you walk into your LGS and there is one in the case.

Well you didn't look hard enough because Sig does have an MPX SBR on display. It's just to the right as you face the Sig information booth where you get the swag. I actually got to shoot both the MPX select fire and semi SBR at their range day and I am definitely getting one. One of the sweetest 9mm sub guns I ever shot. |

They must have had it some other place on Thursday because it as was there today. Enjoy, I'm a lot more interested in the Angstad as a cheaper option, and WAY more interested in the LWRC when it's available. It's smaller, lighter, will be less prone to baffle strikes when running suppressed, and available in 9mm and .45. delayed blowback is good enough for me, I don't have to have a piston. |

Yea the LWRC looked cool but never had a chance to handle it. Every time I got there, they took the gun in a closed door meeting.
