I have to admit that CZ looks very legit. It a good job with setting up the rig itself. I'm just wondering what suppressor you are running.

For me I chose to run with the MPX and bought one recently. I will upload pictures soon.

Sorry for late response, it is an AAC Evolution 9. I think they are discontinued at this point.

Sig told me that it was a common problem and for me to try "name brand" ammo. So far everything I've tried will cycle except the freedom munitions 147's. I've tested Fiocchi, American Eagle, Speer Lawman and Federal(black box) and all work flawlessly.
Have you already finished the break in for it mpx. My gun Smith was telling me that they ha e to broken in pretty good for them to function properly.

I've only got about 500 rounds through my MPX thus far. Still waiting on my form 1 and stock. I just received another approved form 1(1/15/16) from another SBR project yesterday so probably another week or two for the MPX. When using 147 gr. Freedom Munitions it will jam 7/10 rounds. I get FTE mostly followed with the occasional bolt not grabbing another round and going back into full battery. Mainly the empty casing just gets stuck loosely in the chamber and doesn't fully eject. But like I said it works flawlessly with every other brand ammo 115's, 124's, 147's and 158gr. This was tested on the stock 8" barrel and also on a 4.5" barrel suppressed or not results are the same.

Playhard321 - Is your MPX a Gen 1 or a Gen 2?

I've already had my MPX barrel cut down to 4.5" and rethreaded to 1/2x28. My 4" K-Keymod handguard has been on preorder since Jan and should be released hopefully in the next month or two.

I've shot both side by side with Shockwave Blade's on them. All 3 of the guys I was with agreed the Scorpion was the better shooter. The controls felt better. The gun was just outstanding to shoot.

Had the chance to shoot both before I purchased. Was not overly impressed with the Scorpion, it felt loose and obviously very "plastic", and did not like the ergos. MPX I shot ran flawlessly, looked fantastic, is modular (huge deal for me) and the ergos are AR. I chose the MPX, go figure. I think its the only sub gun to truly compare to the HK. Only time will tell if it can be as dependable.

I see a few people with feeding issues. I had issues with 147gn HP as well. Contacted Sig and was told to break the gun in with supersonic 115 or 124gn. Wasnt happy about it but I bought 200 115's, mag dumped them all, then ran another 100 147's. It worked, the gun ran flawlessly.
