As mentioned, it is a pistol, no matter what some politicians might claim – a big pistol, but a pistol just the same. And, needless to say, they want to ban all magazines that hold more than 10-rounds of ammunition – and that, I’m sure is only the start of many restrictions to come our way.Īnyone who is the least bit familiar with SIG-Sauer firearms, knows they produce some of the most reliable firearms on the planet, and they are always coming up with new designs, and that is why I believe the original MPX was discontinued to make way for the smaller Copperhead version.Ī little bit about the MPX is in order. So, it will be a constant uphill battle when it comes to owning guns – any type of guns. Make no mistake, the new Administration is totally anti-gun – everyone Biden appointed to various Cabinet posts, are anti-gun. It’s a vicious circle, but in the end, I believe the FedGov will outlaw these pistols – with or without an arm or wrist brace. Or, you might have to turn them in so they can be destroyed, or you might turn the pistol into a rifle, by adding a 16+” barrel or by welding on a really long flash hider or barrel extension to bring it to 16+ inches. Politics have entered this debate, and with the new Administration in the White House, and they are very anti-gun, they are pushing the BATFE, through Executive Orders, to reclassify these pistols the same way you’d treat an NFA weapon – and that means you will have to register them as a “Short-Barreled Rifle”, with fingerprints, the consent of your local Police Chief or Sheriff, and a $200 transfer Transfer Stamp. Most recently, they proposed a totally arbitrary set of “standards” for evaluating arm-braced pistols, with a felony for the owner of any braced pistol that goes over a certain number of “Points.” This has been one big confusing and contradictory mess! Then they said that you could NOT shoulder the gun when you fired it, or that would be a “de-design,” Then, the BATFE said that, you could shoulder the gun – intermittently. Some many years ago, the BATFE said that you could have an arm or wrist brace on these types of pistols. But the BATFE, as always, just keeps changing the rules on this matter. Until recently, the ATF has held that pistols, with an arm brace or wrist brace, is legal to own and use. Right now, there is a lot of confusion, caused by politics and the BATFE, over certain firearms. I received an early version of the MPX for testing, and I’m just now getting around to finishing the article I started a few years back. The MPX K PSB features a 4.5″ barrel, telescoping 3-position brace and a short aluminum KeyMod handguard with handstop.This 9mm pistol, and it is a pistol, has been discontinued by SIG-Sauer for some reason…and they now have a shorter, smaller version called the Copperhead. A full-length picatinny rail allows for solid, consistent mounting of optics and targeting lasers. A short-stroke gas piston allows the SIG MPX to run all weights and brands of 9mm ammunition with no adjustments to the gas valve.
The SIG MPX operates from a fully-closed and locked rotating bolt, offering enhanced reliability and safety in use. Completely ambidextrous, the SIG MPX is great for left- or right-handed shooters with its dual-sided selector switch, magazine release, charging handle and bolt release.
The SIG MPX redefines the submachine gun category with a new level of operator safety, in-field adaptability and proven reliability in the harshest environments. Unconventional design, unmatched performance, and familiar AR handling.
