I bought one last week and it failed straight out the box ☹️ I’m taking it back to the shop today. This makes real sense and very helpful - thanks.

My son's jammed after a few hundred rounds. The same issue and no help from sig. I solved my problem by wrapping and press fitting the black pin. Greasing all the movable parts. Now i want to share something that no one has mentioned. The very tip of the blow block or what ever you call it. Where the air comes out from to hit the pellet, the black plastic part that has a very tiny super thin spring.. After a few shots it gets gunked up and the spring is to weak to push it back into position not allowing the reset jamming the pellet. All I did was grease all the movable parts and changed that little spring for a stronger one to pushes back and seals for the next trigger pull...the dirt from the co2 and the pot metal creates gunk that seize that part.. some light sanding a couple of good placed springs and grease will fix the problem.... it did for me..

Thanks for posting this. I also would have paid more for a better quality item, I think the concept works except for the low quality internal parts. I would be very interested in uprated parts for mine. There are seals kits for these on Ebay UK now but no actual parts

I've had 2 MCX's and a MPX, all which have failed on me within 6 months. I'm done with SIG, I won't buy another airgun or firearm from them. If you want reliability in an AR platform go with a DPMS SBR or Crosman R1. They are the the same internally. I own both and have put 7500 rounds through them without a hiccup. Plus it has all the working controls of an AR. (and full auto) 2 pins to remove and you are inside. Good stuff. And it's accurate.

I've had both the MPX and MCX fail after about 300 rounds, in both cases, Sig replaced the nozzle and sent the guns back. 300 or so rounds later, the sam problem occured again ! The finally sent me a Gen 2 MCX, and IT failed. I finally disassembled it and repaired it myself. So far it is working fine. You are correct, they heed to make these vital parts from a better material to improve reliability.

Mine seems to be leaking at the valve itself. Do you know if the valve is repairable? Or if one is purchasable? Had it just over two years and less than 150 pellets through it, but I’m sure it’s out of warranty.

I got the MCX and MPX both Gen 2. I hope this problem is fixed on Gen 2. I only have gone through 1 90g Co2 cartridges on both. But, my issue is the accuracy, it doesn't consistently shoot straight to the target. It's the worst accuracy air gun ever. It is just frustrating shooting it, just for plinking. It's just make you keep pulling the trigger until you hit the target. The Sig pellet air pistol is more accurate.

Did you ever develop a internal upgrade? I got around 800 shots before it failed. Bought it used at a gun shop. Probably no warranty. I like the gun and I don't want to get rid of it or put it in the closet and forget about it you know.

The velocity numbers these airgun manufacturers put on boxes are often with the lightest pellets. There’s much lighter lead free pellets out there around 5 grain which will give you numbers closer to 545 ft/s. A quick search came up with Predator GTO .177 Cal, 5.5 gr. So 5.5 grain, and if my math is correct you will probably get around 521 ft/s with those.

@Typhoonbladefist3 жыл бұрын
@@chrisflowers-smoker154 I believe the MCX and MPX only use pellets; I’ve never tried BBs in mine, but I imagine they won’t sit in the magazine chain like they should. Yes, BB grain is around 5 which would potentially increase muzzle velocity, but I believe BBs also are a little smaller in diameter than equivalent sized pellets which could mean some loss of power as some of the air can leak around it when shot. I’m not sure how much of a loss this could be. They are also more inaccurate than pellets are.
