    The video would be a lot cooler if you were able to switch caliber, oh wait Sig says there isn’t enough interest for caliber change over, that they marketed the gun as in 2015. Considering how backed up on MPX orders the ability to change to .40 cal is asking too much. I’m not jaded about it, I’m just saying multiple calibers is one of the strong points to the platform.

    Guys please follow the manual when installing the barrel. tighten the screws back and forth until snug then use a torque wrench to tighten to 30-40 inch pounds (first screw then second screw then first screw again)

    • @SetsunaKai5

    Due to potential legal exposure, I doubt either a g p ass cl9wbaxk, short piston, or l9ng pist9n d9es. But I do think the people near us are n9w cultivating. Even though through the gas piston system, the boly is not the MPX sight and s8ghts are no l9nger being compared in dearh, irons and red dot, I think you should get the aimpoint ar event.

    Hello Arm&Gun! - Where did you get the interchangeable barrel from? Looking to do the same, I have a 16inch and want to go for the 8 or 4.5. Thanks in advance!

  • @griff6985

    Nice overview.
    Do people find that they lose their zero after removing and replacing the barrel/cleaning the piston?

    • @robb9130
      @robb9130 Před 4 lety +5

      Zero can be a smidge off after removing barrel. Really only need a click or 2 to be back on zero again though. So it’s not like you gotta go through the entire rezeroing process.

    I’ve always wondered if a belt fed gun would be able to get around magazine bans. The law specifically says it cannot except a magazine with a capacity of over 10 rounds.. I’ve always read that is, a belt isn’t a magazine so I think you can do whatever you want with a belt. Would it be that was in Canada too?

  • @knighthawk6633
    @knighthawk6633 Před 2 lety

    WARNING - read before you purchase. Test your ILWT barrel to ensure that ammo feeds correctly. Mine did not because of a high feedramp. ILWT is 0.060” compared to the OEM 0.035””. The higher feedramp resulted in bullets nose diving into the base of the feedramp and not onto the feedramp resulting in stoppage. Because I let the gun sit in my safe for a year and did not identify and report earlier, ILWT won’t work the issue and I am required to make Dremel modifications to correct the geometry of the feedramps to allow seamless feeding and function. I highly recommend identifying the issue early and brining it to ILWT’s attention or else you too will have to break out the Dremel.

    • @pacodelfuego
      @pacodelfuego Před 2 lety

      I emailed ILWT months ago about this exact concern while considering buying one of their barrels and they never responded. If there was anyone else making a machined tri-lug barrel for the MPX, I'd buy from them instead of ILWT, but unfortunately ILWT seems to be the only option.

    • @armandgun
      @armandgun  Před 4 lety +2

      IMO the 4.5" is more desirable. You get a little more velocity out of the 8", but I got the 4.5" to replace mine. My gun started as an 8", so I got the 4.5" kit. Not sure if Sig still offers the 8".
