Buy the folder and try em both. Depending on your intended use, carry method, and your personal size and how you like to shoot, youll favor one over the other.

Im sticking with folder.

Any love for MRO's? If so, which mount did you like?

I did notice the Scalarworks from pg.130 - just curious of other's experiences.

Excuse my ignorance on this. I just swapped to the ILWT 4.5 inch barrel and his website said to be sure to check headspace after swap. Where is the best place for headspace gauges? I saw a set at Brownells for $60.

Barrel slid right in like butter. Should be perfect with the omega 9k.

Did anyone buy the Next Level Armament spring block and charging handle so you don’t scratch the top of the receiver like the factory parts will?

The spring block works perfectly with the factory charging handle. If you use the supplied charging handle from Next Level Armament you will scratch the top of the receiver in a different place because their charging handle is much thicker than the factory supplied handle.

First time I have been disappointed with any of their stuff. The spring block works perfectly but skip the charging handle since it totally defeats the purpose of what their spring block is designed for.

I tried the NLA block and CH and when I shoot supressed, the gas blowback leaked thru the back of the CH, not enough “seal”. Not that it was supposed to. I saw the Giesele CH and bought that. It does not need the NLA lift block (not compatible with it) and it blocked more of the “suppressed” blow back gas and the CH feels better. My recommendation is the Giesele CH for better feel and blocking of the gas.

Expensive but the best for a MRO. Quick detach feature and also allows for co-witness with BUIS...

the angles are weird and it doesn't look like it.... but that tape measure is in the same place on both pics

I'm sorry, but angle has nothing to do with it, the tape measure is not measured in the same spot. It's very clear.

I have searched and must have missed the definitive answer about magazine compatibility due to my weak search fu.

Gen1 mag -> Gen2 mpx = ? (no issues, has issues, does not work)
Gen2 mag -> Gen1 mpx = ? (no issues, has issues, does not work)

Thanks fellas.

That's cool. I'll go ahead and call you a liar too.
Liar.

so the local Gander Reincarnated has a MPX Pistol with the 4" barrel for 1990 and change. Not that I will pay that but who has the 4 inch and how do you like it?

Gen 1 mags seem to work perfectly fine in Gen 2 guns. Not sure about the other way around.

I absolutely love my 4" MPX. So much better, IMO, than the 8" in balance, maneuverability, and my use.

Oh, thats pretty! What suppressor os that, DWD?

Anyone ever consider changing out their gun's plastic dust cover? To me it's so cheesy that I can't bring myself to refer to it as 'polymer'. But alas, I'm not aware of anyone who actually MAKES an aftermarket replacement.

I have this exact setup and couldn't recommend it more. By far one of the most accurate combos I've ever used.

All my mro's are mounted on adm mounts except for 1 that's on a bobro.

I just found a brand new Sig Romeo 5X for $170 shipped on Ebay and mounted it on my 8 inch MPX Gen 2. Most fun I’ve had shooting...

Wish these Romeo 5’s could stay in stock. They are affordable, sleek, and very nice.

I'm interested in picking up a MPX K. Anything to look out for? What's a good price range considering all the craziness?

Same old stuff. Look for a Gen 2 gun as they can use the cheaper gen 1 mags.

As for price, it ranges regionally and wildly.

I have seen used ones go for 1200 and 3k. It depends on what it all comes up with.

Now, I do have a recommendation. Don't get hung up on the barrel length. You can order an In Lead We Trust (ILWT) barrel with gas block that is significantly better than stock.

So, if you find a cheap rifle, and want to go SBR as I did, that is an option.

As to the MPX K versus the longer ones. I have shot the K, and owned the 16" carbine. I opted to split the difference at 8" OAL for my SBR. I am very happy with how it functions.
