Ok this has been burning my ass for months...
Why is the Sig MCX verboten in the People Republic?
Now I know this is model of rifle that was used in the Pulse shooting which supposedly the straw that broke Maura's back and led to the whole 7/20 cluster-fun, but as far as I can dell it it doesn't pass the AW Ban AR copy/dupe criteria especially in it's 2nd gen (or new 3rd Gen Virtus?) model.
The uppers and lowers are no longer compatible with AR upper and lowers with the new bolt carriers and trigger groups. At this point the only mechanical similarity is that it accepts STAGNAG mags, muzzle devices, perhaps AR-style grips.
In every other respect it is not the same or similar design.
It's piston operated (not DI), has internal recoil springs (no buffer tube), non-compatible trigger group, bolt/bcg, controls, barrels, charging handle, controls, and rails.
Am I missing something? Or is this simply just another pile on the Mass-mountain of bullshit.
There are other guns that are also mechanically fundamentally different but share an AR style manual of arms that are being sold. Why is the Sig excluded?
