SIG SAUER MPX (Update: Exclusive Non-NFA version P7)

I like to peek at the available MPX aftermarket accessories on Amazon from time to time.

Some are pointless, such as the two fake cans I've found so far: http://www.amazon.com/Guntec-U...Micro/dp/B013RNP4S4/ and http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate...ended/dp/B012PEIYHO/

But some are interesting. Anyone have any experience with this foregrip accessory?

Anxious about an update on the charging handle fix.

I canceled my Sig MPX charging handle order as they can't confirm if it will fix the slop or not. All they can say is that it's ambi.

How much were they asking for the new handle?

The original CH for the MPX was ambi, so it may or may not be a new design.

I really dought the ambi charging handle will fix the slop issue, it will more than likely be addressed when the gen 2 receiver is released.

Is Sig redesigning the charging handle to fix the issues or just releasing a ambidextrous model?

That's the 100.00 question. All Sig CS could say is the the new charging handle is ambi and unknown if it is a fix for the slop.

I was told by the a Sig CS rep that the new charging handle is the full height at the end and angled to allow it to fill the gap and reduce slop but. Obviously the angled part will still slap the receiver but it may reduce the bounce and flex therfore reducing wear. However when i called earlier this week i was told they weren't available to order.

I couldn't take it any longer!! I had to order one

I'll get the form 1 in on it as soon as I get it and then worry about the CH, barrel length, stock, keymod rail, extra mags, caliber change later. I'm feeling kinda giddy

Its a sweet gun! Downside is Form 1 has almost quadruple from what it was earlier in the year. At least it won't make you feel as bad while you wait for your stock! Unlike those who got a stock early but are all waiting for a F1 to clear...

I know

I had one come back this past year in 19 days! I was hoping that was going to become the norm. At least we get to kinda use it while we're waiting, unlike suppressors waiting on form 4's

Does anyone have information on the New Siding adapter that Sig is shipping on the MPX with Brace? Can you change it to accept a AR stock and tube? got my Form 1 back and I want to change the stock

The only thing that changed was the folding mechanism. You can still change the buffer tube to accept a standard M4 style stock.

Just got a Form 1 approved for my MPX... in 24 hours.

Allow me to explain.

I'd originally e-filed a Form 1 months ago, and it was denied because I used a PO box as my address.

I submitted a brand new form a few days ago on 9/4/15, but included my rejected application's Control Number as the "Internal Control Number" field on the new application. After submitting it via eForms, I used the "Ask the Experts" link to inform the NFA Branch that I'd submitted a new Form 1, and I included both Control Numbers (new and old) so they could correlate them.

Just for fun, I checked eForms today to make sure it was still pending. It wasn't, it's in "Approved." Created and submitted dates were "9/4/15" and finalized date is "9/5/15."

I didn't believe it, so I downloaded the form. The tax stamp is right there.

I'm certain it was only this fast because they probably treated it as a "corrected" form, but my MPX is about to get a whole lot awesomer.

How did you get a form 1 approved in WA State when they are being denied due to the manufacturing clause???????????
