Upgrading My MCX Spear LT

Happy for you man. Not what i would put on it myself but still, neat.

Very nice. I just ordered a PSA JAKL. Very excited to get it to add all the goodies haha

[@jwalls1125]

Nice video. Personally I’d never order a trijicon off Amazon to many fakes. Optics planet way to go

[@MugenZeroX]

As long as they say it's in stock, those wait times for back orders be something else

[@vietnamtactical]

When it says prime it’s legit, they do a check themselves supposedly but it did come out to be real i scanned the data matrix on the side to confirm it

[@matcha_546]

Rather deal with amazon customer service then optics planet. Don't have to deal with restocking fees nor deal with the bs customer service that you get from most 2a websites

[@vietnamtactical]

@matcha_546 yup trying to get a suppressor and customer service is incredibly horrible

[@matcha_546]

@@vietnamtactical haha damn straight

[@xpatrickchoi]

Sig makes a shoulder collar (sometimes they include it in the box), and it can be used with muzzle devices that require a 90-degree shoulder so the muzzle device is on straight. If you plan to suppress this, you might be at risk of a baffle strike. I can see the shim crinkling and you can't be sure that it's on completely straight. Surefire also recommends Rockset and should have been included in the box.

[@vietnamtactical]

I had someone tell me about the collar the day i posted this luckily i changed it asap

[@KamDaGravySeal]

nice build i'm on my 3rd lt great gun

[@police270th]

It's very nice and well made. 👍

[@dalalmuxiyo]

I would like more utubers to to this Fantastic video

[@vietnamtactical]

Appreciate it🙏

[@RickAmey-wc3dx]

fkn love it bro! excellent taste and good choices. i personally would use a tan crt stock, fde bcm mod 3 grip or the k2 + grip in fde. maybe a surefire brake instead of the warcomp. i hear they lock up easy.

[@vietnamtactical]

I didnt want a brake since im not going for purely recoil mitigation. I did change the stock to the Midwest Alpha series stock since the sopmod couldnt fold

[@Chasetactics]

This is one of the best looking rifles out there! Although imo I don’t really prefer the acogs, but great optic. Love the vid man! Sub

[@Chasetactics]

Personally I like the eotech with magnifier 💯 pretty expensive though. Seen you’ve tried it, doesn’t suit everyone.

[@vietnamtactical]

@Chasetactics had that combo on the mk18 great option as well

[@marcusd3212]

This is sick as fùck! Love the sig rifles! I dunno about that b5 tho. I like the original fixed one over that b5 adjustable. Curious what the black sig adjustable would look like on it. Could always paint or have it coated fde.

[@vietnamtactical]

Ive updated the stock since i couldnt fold the b5, check out the new short!

[@hackerforse33]

Nice vid! Take my subscription

[@Ready17]

Pretty slick setup my dude, one question though... By the way your light is setup, I imagine you're a right handed shooter, but the offset RMR is setup backwards from how most righties would run it. Any reason?

[@vietnamtactical]

I am indeed a left handed shooter but the light is far enough forward that it doesnt get in my way when im handling the switch

[@lamarisr9699]

This was a dope video 👍🏾

[@TeeJaay8888]

nice vid man, i've got the spear LT 7.62*39, trying to get a can now since ATF approval date improves. i heard the muzzle device is extremely hard to remove, have you tried to find any gun smith to remove it ?

[@vietnamtactical]

Did it myself easily, check out my long form youtube video on how to remove muzzles, it took me less than 10 seconds to do. Even showed it in this video of the muzzle just coming off. All you need is a wrench

[@greentipammo]

That nice bro, Now it's time to upgrade it to 300blackout..

[@kennyphelps1160]

I definitely would have used blue Loctite. Do you need anything? Is that you should have used the SIG shoulder adapter when you put the warcomp on SIG has a tapered barrel and you want to make sure you get a true alignment.

[@vietnamtactical]

Im uploading a long form video about it that, i so have the shoulder adapter on it now

[@oliverleong4804]

Before/Aftet?

[@kennyphelps1160]

You know you’re a gun guy when you have a vice in your living room😂😂😂

[@liggerstuxin1]

4:05 did you boil the muzzle brake? The Sig Rocksett is legendary.

[@vietnamtactical]

No i didnt, i have a video using this same method and it just comes right off. The thing some dont know about loctite/rocksett is gradual torque will never do you any good you need to use impact torque to break the threadlocker

[@liggerstuxin1]

@@vietnamtactical as in an impact hammer/wrench? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that. I’ve seen people use an absolute rapid boil. As rapid as the boiling can get. They said it in the water for 20 minutes and then it unscrews. Barring that I’ve never seen anyone able to remove it lol

[@vietnamtactical]

@@liggerstuxin1 im not sure if impact is a proper term. Imagine pushing someone as gradual and punching someone as more of an impact force. In the long form video i posted about it i believe everyone who commented said it worked, you should check it out its only a couple minutes long youll see what i mean

[@itsbigbad2050]

Is that left sided canted site ok with you? I woulda put it on the other side, but Im sure its user preference and I've just never seen anyone do that

[@vietnamtactical]

Im left handed

[@andreasebner2209]

Well done

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

very nice

[@wanghafHUN]

[@liggerstuxin1]

IMHO the RMR is better in the ACOG. But a good canted setup is good too.

[@markjacksonmusic21]

Can you provide the parts number for the stock and tube? Getting my LT next week!

[@markjacksonmusic21]

@@vietnamtactical Hell Yeah! Appreciated!

[@a1v175]

Sorry to tell you, but you're going to have an issue. On the MCX you need to run a taper adapter if running a non tapered muzzle device. It doesn't stay square if you mount a suppressor.

[@vietnamtactical]

I had got one a day after, its on it

I can't tell what hand you shoot with your RMR on one side and your switched light on the other...why?

Are you left handed? Just wondering why you would cant the rifle to your right to fire on a red dot. Otherwise great rifle, nice look, good work.

[@vietnamtactical]

Yes

[@MySkobi]

@@vietnamtactical explains. Does the ejecting work both ways? I never held/tried the Spear in person. Edit: I saw it at IWA, but now I’m choosing between the Spear and DD mk18 milspec.

[@vietnamtactical]

No it doesnt work both ways, ive owned a mk18 and ill tell you the spear is a better investment, it comes with an adjustable gas block so you can run it suppressed without getting gas in your eyes and lungs it is more accurate as well

[@MySkobi]

@@vietnamtactical that helps me a lot bud. I was just looking at the prices. In my country Spear LT or even MCX is around 300-500€ cheaper than DDM4A1 or MK18. And now there is only two oprions for me: DDM4A1 or Sig Sauer MCX. Both in .223 with a 14.5” barrel. I need to test them first to see which one is a better fit. But SIG offers much better customer support and spares. We are also neighbours to Switzerland, so it doesn’t cost me that much to just ride to their factory store and buy stuff. Any more suggestions?

[@John-Wick321]

im too broke to afford one but if i could i would LMAO

[@riiddisbuk2496]

@@vietnamtactical That stock is overkill. You could've used it to keep in a smaller backpack ;( I'm indifferent with your change for grips, but I do love that rubber magpul grip :) Was the change of a flash hider really necessary? You could've got a good muzzle brake :P Optics are clean. Foregrip is aight (would've used dat Daniel Defense Picatany grip :P). And the flashlight... gives the targets the "spotlight" :P

[@vietnamtactical]

@riiddisbuk2496 i hate daniel defense grips, the angle helps a bit, also on my more recent short i changed the stock to a more low profile one that i can adjust it looks so good, and yes im getting a suppressor soon, and im already good at controlling recoil to an extent, i picked the surefire warcomp since its the best of both worlds, im a more tactical guy so muzzle breaks imo suck way too much flash. You should def check the shorts out man👌👌👌

[@DeaZyy_]

put a EOtech vude on that bihh and get rid of the ACOG and canted RMR

[@vietnamtactical]

No Eotech LPVO’s suck. In my experience and personal preference I like something I can bang around and offers a more clear sight picture also something that doesnt require me to move my shooting or support arm just to change magnification. If you have a Vudu id sell it and buy a vortex razor hd II 1-6/1-8.

[@1995keandre]

You didn’t add the adapter before you added the muzzle device.

I ordered it and installed after this video

[@itsbigbad2050]

Tighten the barrel clamp and it fixes that issue

[@2AToday]

Too much sound. Not sure how best to put words to the issue. Every little paper crinkle sound, plastic baggie opening, tool turning and cardboard ‘roughness’…..makes my skin crawl. I don’t understand why anyone likes this “ASMR” stuff. I love what you did with the rifle. Looks awesome!! Please consider not doing the extreme asmr audio. One technical thing: the muzzle device needs to be installed with a taper collar. Sig sells one, and so does Midwest industries. Also loctite shouldn’t be used on the barrel/muzzle. Rockset instead.

[@vietnamtactical]

You had 5 minutes and 14 seconds to either click off the video or turn the volume down😭. I do have a taper ring tho thanks for the heads up

Yup! Call sig get the collar. Then use the shims for proper timing. When using rocksett make sure to clean the threads properly and make sure no oil is on them. Alot of people have had issues with rocksett not working cause they dont clean the threads before installing muzzle device.
