SIG Sauer MPX Airsoft AEG Rifle (by SIG AIR & VFC)

The SIG Sauer MPX - the modern take on the classic submachine gun platform. This baby hit the market in 2015 and it's been making waves ever since.

Designed and manufactured by SIG Sauer, the MPX is considered to be the spiritual successor to the aging but legendary H&K MP5 submachine gun. It is a short-stroke, gas-operated firearm that's primarily chambered in 9mm. What sets it apart from the rest, you ask? Well, it takes inspiration from the AR15/M4 platform, with similar fire-controls and operations like having a closed, rotating bolt, which makes it an absolute breeze to handle. But that's not all! SIG Sauer has recently ventured into the airsoft market with their highly anticipated SIG AIR Proforce Airsoft MPX AEG - a 1:1 scale replica of the real steel counterpart. And let us tell you, airsoft enthusiasts around the world have been eagerly awaiting its arrival.

Externally, this electric airsoft gun boasts a solid build quality that's reminiscent of the Proforce SIG Sauer airsoft MCX. It features a 14mm CCW threaded outer barrel, an 8" M-LOK front handguard for all your accessories, a full-length Picatinny rail up top, a side folding telescoping stock, a 1913 Picatinny rear-end rail that allows for the mounting of compatible stocks. And get this - you can even interchange the stocks between the SIG AIR Proforce MCX airsoft gun and SIG AIR Proforce airsoft MPX, just like in the real steel world! Now, if you're lucky enough to live in a country where you have access to real steel accessories, you'll be pleased to know that they plug and play with the SIG AIR Proforce MPX just as they do with the SIG AIR Proforce MCX. Talk about versatility, right?

But let's not forget about what's under the hood. The SIG AIR Proforce MPX packs a version 2.1 gearbox which features a handy dandy quick change spring system to allow for switching out lighter or heavier springs for indoor or outdoor skirmishes as well as full compatibility with most standard version 2 gearbox components like the piston assembly, rotary gears and the ECU, the same as the one found inside its big brother, the SIG AIR Proforce MCX AEG airsoft rifle. Its battery is wired to the front of the gun, and its inner barrel measures in at a respectable 168mm long.

Its hop-up can be accessed by pulling back the charging handle and turning the adjustment dial in where the chamber would be located at. The airsoft MPX also comes with a cool looking 100 mid-capacity magazine. Its build quality is neat with a semi-translucent polymer shell highlighting the dummy rounds inside. Shooting the MPX airsoft gun feels very responsive with 7.4v LiPo and since it has a built-in MOSFET, running a 11.1v LiPo is certainly an option if you want to make the most out of the high-torque neodymium magnet motor that comes with this airsoft submachine gun. And since this is a sub-compact weapons platform, the airsoft MPX is easy to maneuver around tight corners. The fire controls and magazine release are ambidextrous which makes it very easy to manipulate shots and reloads both on the strong and weak hand. Lastly, since it takes inspiration from the AR/M4 platform, everything about the MPX airsoft gun feels very familiar, making it extremely easy to acclimate to this airsoft gun.

All in all, the SIG AIR Proforce MPX is a force to be reckoned with in the airsoft world, with its impressive build quality, interchangeable stocks, and reliable internals. So, whether you're a seasoned airsoft veteran or a newbie looking to get started, this gun is definitely worth a closer look.
