Sig just announced on their IG the MPX will be shipping to dealers soon.

People thought prices on CZ EVO was bad for first batches, just wait on the MPX.
$2,000 is my average guess. |
|
They started shipping last week I believe, there are several for sale on gunbroker right now.

Are mags available anywhere? Not that that would get me to buy an MPX right now, but I'm afraid that the shortage of MPX mags will be worse than the one for the CZ.

View Quote I'm interested in this too. I've had a deposit on 2 MPX's for over a year. It looks like I'll finally see them in the near future, but what about mags? |

What is the conventional wisdom on street price for one, once the hype/release is done?
|

I've read that it should be somewhere around 1,500 bucks for just the pistol, and 1,600-1,800 for the pistol with brace. Given time to get more of them out there, and available mags, the price should come down like the prices for Tavors did

I like it. Right now it's priced WAY too high. As I watched the video, I'm thinking of it as a replacement of the MP5. If they get the price down and all the initial bugs it's going to have fixed, I may get one and SBR it.

Sig has released 100 units to dealers , our local dealer got one and called my night job boss and he's at the dealer right now picking it up. I will get to get my hands on it and shoot it about 10:00 tonight . I'll let y'all know how it goes!

View Quote Rather have a Dillon 1050 in 9mm with a EVO, magazines, SBR stamp and components to reload. |

My boss picked his up yesterday for $1449. The shop only got one and don't know when they would ever get another. I got to shoot it last night in the rain. Seem extremely well built and not some plastic toy. Folding Stock lock up was super tight. Lower is very AR'ish. Upper looks heavy but was not . I was highly impressed and if not for my income situation I'd buy one in a heartbeat. But I can always come shoots my bosses .

Just bought one on gun broker for buy it now price $1749. Close enough for MRSP for me, within $200. I didn't want to be stuck watching some some sit on gun broker at $3800 for months. I hope it lives up to my expectations, I could probably sell it pretty quick for small loss if I end up hating it.

I have two questions on this gun
1. Can the sig brace version be retrofitted with the collapsible stock and made an SBR under a form 1? 2. Is the trigger system the same as is used in an AR? Thanks! |

Anyone know why they released the 8" versions? Everything about the MPX-P and regular MPX has said it would have a 6.5" barrel. I don't have much use for an 8" barrel that will make it harder to keep some 147gr ammo subsonic.

Picked mine up today. Bought it off Gunbroker for $1799.00
Fired it today also. Recoil impulse was HK 94ish. Nice and smooth Much smoother than the CZ EVO. I do believe I was getting a bit of trigger slap. I'll try again Sunday when I have some time. |

I have an Evo but wanted an MPX, I gave up on Sig ever releasing the MPX 2 months ago. I like the Evo, but the MPX is calling my name. |

Anyone know of a good source online to order one of these from?

A lot of the demo models are 6.5, they should have that system well sorted. And if they were especially worried they could just enlarge the port. |

It's 110% useless without the magazines.
Not touching it until I can buy ten reasonably priced mags the same day as the gun. It's amazing with all this extra time they did not think to coordinate the release of this with the availability of magazines. For cryin' out loud... the Czechoslovakians did it. |

I think it's more because a 6.5 isn't remarkably different from the K model. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

View Quote I think I remember reading a while ago that they contracted Lancer to make the mags. Not too sure if that's a good or bad thing... . But I'm with you, I mentioned that a while ago, no mags are availible and the ones I have seen listed as out of stock are $69, too much IMHO. In time prices & availability will level out & I'll pick one up, but until then, I'll shoot something else. |

I'm waiting till I can buy mags too. I figure once the mags are out there the factory SBR's will be soon to follow. |

View Quote The 30rd mags for the Scorpion are trickling out at a very slow pace - not sure I'd really use that as an example. They *are* much cheaper, though, which is nice. |

IMHO, the Lancer mags are one of the best features of the MPX.
