Sig MPX SBR (Factory)

[DireWolf]

I was looking into a Sig MPX factory SBR (collapsible stock) recently, and was curious if anyone here had one and can weigh in on how they like it....as well as how hard they are to find.....

Backround: I got my mitts on one today (in stock, in store) and first impression was hugely positive, but wanted to get perspective from a current owner if possible, as well as general availability - in other words, are they easy to find or are they unicorns? (I havent seen any in stock prior to today, but that doesn't count for much...)


Thanks!

I have an MPX gen 1.

Paperwork is in process.

I like mine. I used it in a local competition and it shot well. Dad is running it in competitions now. I have had no problems whatsoever with it...that being said they seem to be hit and miss. They have already started selling a gen 2 version. Some parts are not interchangeable. There have been feeding issues, fit and finish issues...mags not interchangeable....

Again...I like mine. Had no troubles at all. But there are a number of others that have had trouble.

Sig in general has been very hit or miss with their rifles over the past several years (more misses then hit's) I fell victim to their 556xi-R so won't be buying any more products from them anytime soon.

All though I was intrigued by the MPX, $70 mags turned me right off. I would suggest looking at a CZ Scorpion at half the price.

No first hand experience but the complaints of gas in the face when running suppressed and expensive mags made me look into the CZ Evo. It was a toss up for awhile but the Evo is the road I'm going to venture down.

I have an SBR and have had no issues, although not an SBR from the factory. I don't get any gas in the face when using a can at all, zero. The mags are pricey but worth the fun, I think. From what I've seen the mags are actually compatible between gen 1 and 2. I've tried both in my gen 1 with no issues, I think it's that the gen 2 rifle won't hold old gen 1 mags.

Not to derail your thread but I was in the same boat when I looking for a 'factory' 9mm SBR carbine. I held the MPX and Scorpion and liked them both. After researching both, I bought the Scorpion. I just couldn't justify the price of the MPX with the so so reviews on it. I had not read anything bad about the scorpions plus the mags were so much cheaper for the scorpions ($17 MSRP) vs MPX ($50). Mags were a little hard to come at first but they are easily found now. I am not sure if the MPX mags are hard to come by still.

I am into my Scorpion for $1350+/- and that includes factory folding stock and two Form 1 stamps; suppressor and SBR. For the price of the scorpion at full retail, plus the factory stock and tax stamp, you are into for the price of (1) MPX pistol. Just throwing it out there for consideration.

Here is what it looks like currently.

Where'd you guys buy the 922r compliant stock??? They were out of stock everywhere, was gonna sbr one but after seeing no 922r kit in stock i changed my mind.

I was one of the lucky ones that got it directly from CZ Custom Shop. I had it in my cart and when I went to hit "order submit" it said OOS. I immediately called and the guy I spoke said he saved an extra just in case there was a problem and shipped it to me. I was really lucky but they are popping up more and more.

Don't mean to derail the thread...

Barfcom and CZ forums have Scorpion threads where people update availability. Looks like they are sending out 2 versions. Old with the hook, and new with the magnet.

Thanks for all the input, this was really helpful!

Just to throw this in, the one I was looking at yesterday was a Gen2, and priced around $1650, if I remember correctly.....
