I just read this and maybe prices will go up some more.

SOCOM finally found its next-generation personal defense weapon (msn.com)

Man, Sig is cleaning up lately. I think you should get one while they are plentiful.

Glad I was able to get one earlier this year for $2100 brand new off GunBroker!

my LGS had one in stock for $2600 before taxes. Smh

That’s the invisible hand of free market giving us the invisible middle finger..supply and demand..grabbed uppers when they were available..

Another big government contract is not good news for the civilian market…it’s been hard enough to get support and parts as it is.

They are winning on all fronts.

I think you should buy two.

And then put a couple hundred rounds through one of them and sell it to me for the 'used' price.

.556 or 300 blackout?

Methinks there's a lot of back-door dealing going on between SIG and the government.

The Taliban special....

The only thing keeping me from getting an MCX is the lack of an ambi bolt release. I don't understand why the MPX got one but the MCX didn't.

I guess that means you’ll just have to buy a MCX Spear 😂 They have the ambi bolt release.

Or get a SIG M400 SDI and the MCX adapter.

So, is SOCOM going to get MCX's in 5.56 or .300 Blackout? The 5.56 is nearly useless in that short a barrel. The .300BO is great, but I've always wondered what would happen if the military adopted it and the ammo started getting mixed in with 5.56 weapons.

That's a good point @dsk... dangerous mix up!
