I saw one guy on here who chopped to 3" in front of the receiver, which is more if you use the dowel method:
That was from over Here Seen a lot of 4" Not much under |

4.5 inches is the shortest length barrel that SIG makes (MPX-K). If it was me, I wouldn't go below that length. I mean, SIG did extensive testing for knowing the shortest barrel length it can be for function,reliability, accuracy. I would bow to SIG knowledge, rather then some anonymous guy on the internet who hacked on his pistol.
it's your pistol, do what you want to do. |

You can actually thank HK for coming up with the 115mm or 4.5" barrel length for the K sized guns.

SIG, HK. only thing I know is I wouldn't go any shorter then what they came up with. if the OP, or anyone else for that matter, wants to go shorter, then more power to him(them). |

I'm actually gonna be chopping my barrel down soon too as I already got the SBR stamp but waiting on the can. I was planning on going 3 or 4 but what you stated about the 4.5 does make sense tho. Also I need to do some measurements and see how the obsidian looks when put on etc. |

But just to be sure the $65 obviously includes the barrel cut down as well as retread correct? You only mentioned thread on the $65 price. |

Lol I just realized you are from class 3 machining. I didn't read ur signature but went to the link you posted. Only now I saw it says class 3 in your signature.
You have more than a reputation already with mpx. Have heard it countless times. Will contact you as soon as I figure out how short I want to go with an obsidian including the rail. |

Will be cutting mine down via Class 3 machining but can't decide which thread pitch to go with. Is it easy to get 9mm flash hiders in 1/2x28? I will want something on end of barrel when it's not suppressed. Other idea is just go ahead with a 3lug mount and run that bare since 3lug flash hiders aren't inexpensive.
Thanks |

I went 1/2x28 on mine. Already have a few muzzle devices in that thread pitch plus the suppressors I'm waiting for...my cut down barrel should be here tomorrow. I placed an order for a Lancer 4.5" handguard as well...

I believe it comes in 1/2x28 but mines was 1/2x36 becuz when I first got into ar9 I wasn't that seasoned on the thread types. I fell into the u want diff size so you don't stick a 9mm flash can on an AR |

Need to pick up a 20 rounder or two... im not sure if i missed it.. but how much did you cut your barrel too? i have a can that im still waiting on but my goal is to use the can not only on the mpx but also on some other handguns etc. but when i use it on the other handguns, im either gonna stick a flash can depending on barrel length and if i go 3lug or not. because if i go 3lug which is highly likely then its gonna be one of those 3lug flash hiders etc when the can isnt on. yea the easy solution would be to buy another can but this being my first this wait is outrageous nothing else to do about that. but we shall see when i finally get the stamp and can. |

Looking to go the same route! Anyone know how the barrels are measured? Overall length? My measurement of where the flash hider would sit with the 6.5" Lancer handgaurd installed led me to go with a 6.5" barrel (removing 1.5" of my 8" barrel). I wanted the flash hider and my suppressor to sit very slightly inside the handgaurd, just like it does from the factory with the 8" barrel and factory handgaurd. |
