    Probably. Where there is a will and a dremel there is a way.

    That is how I ended up with my MPX - my shooting buddy is like a vice dealer - wife says I need to quit hanging out with him!

    Action type does not add or subtract recoil energy. It can only change how it feels by altering the attack, sustain and decay of the recoil impulse

    Question to any and all; since we have much heavier recoiling single action pistols with great triggers, why is it a challenge to have a decent and durable AR trigger on a 6 lb 9mm carbine?

    I know a knock on the SIG MPX for PCC is high $$$ magazines. Still seeing these Gen 1s on sale for three for $60!

    I had a great practice session with the MPX yesterday, and was really looking forward to the match today. Pretty darn cold this morning, but still fine shooting weather.

    Stage one, had a bunch of malfunctions, which resulted in the MPX becoming one shot, work the charging handle, and continue. It obviously ruined the stage but more importantly, was the first lick of trouble I have had since the MPX passed its initial break in. I borrowed some oil, lubed it up wet, and had a thought the cold combined with a dry bolt was the culprit. The good news was it ran fine the rest of the match. One other stage I made a rookie mistake related to bore offset. I was tight around a barricade, rolled the gun left, but didn't realize I had moved the dot but not the barrel. I clipped the side of the barricade and managed two mikes/no shoots due to the luck of the deviation through the intermediate barrier. So in overall match placement, on stages I finished 3, 4, 4, 32 and 34. But for the stoppages and bore offset, it would have been pretty good. Here are a few stages, starting with the second string of a classifier that involved support side shooting with the PCC.

    The MPX really likes to run wet. We have found that if you don't lube it a lot right before a match, you may run into issues.

    What PM is recommended on the MPX beyond running a bore snake through, and lubing the bolt assembly?

    You were blazing those pairs.
    What kind of splits are you getting with that SIG?
