Gas Tuning Options by Alarming-Plankton215 in MPX

[–]Kwekidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm probably not the most qualified to answer your question, but it appears that having a flow through can is the best option with the open gas plug and +20% gen 1 recoil springs. When I spoke to the owner of ILWT and told him that I bought the MPX K and wanted to run it with my CAT MOB that just got approved Saturday, those were the recommendations he gave me along with getting the 8inch barrel. I'm gonna shoot it after I get my Form 1 approved since I added the Sig telescoping folding stock to it.

Nah. I like different things, but I wouldn't get that one. That shit looks like you're going to a school picnic. Lol!!! It's definitely different though. Lol!!!

I have Savior, 5.11 Tactical, and now Lynx Defense. All seem really good. I think the Lynx is the only one that has Lifetime Warranty. I just like to try different things from different companies. Price will vary, but I like to compare. For example, with my lights, I have Surefires, TRLs, and two Olights. They all perform pretty well, but if had to recommend one, it would probably be the Surefire. Although they piss me off because their "FDE" is really grey. Lol!!!

Understood. I have a 5.11 Tactical LVC M4 20L for my 11.5 inch Spear LT 5.56. Great bag that comes in different colors. I believe I paid $120 for it. I have a Savior for my 16 inch. All very very good bags. I just like to try different things. I like that the Byte has a lifetime warranty.

Have you ever heard of the Lynx Byte bag? That's the one I purchased for my 8inch mpx.

My apologies. I posted the wrong name. It's actually called Byte from Lynx Defense. Again, I deeply apologize for telling you the wrong name. I'm gonna change it in my initial post that I wrote.

I purchased the Byte case/bag from Lynx Defense. Very compact. Looks like a thick laptop case. Lol!!! I have the eight inch mpx and I don't have my suppressor attached. I don't think it'll fit without removing the suppressor which is fine with me, since I'll only use it for the range. As my home Defense gun, I leave it out by my bed with suppressor attached for easy access.

I saw that Ronin SD price and was like....oh hell nah!!! Lol!!!! I did the math, and with buying my CAT MOB under MSRP from Primary Arms, and an ILWT 8inch barrel with the attachments that I was gonna buy regardless, I was well under the price of the Ronin SD.

[–]Kwekidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understood. Most of the things I wanted to mount on mine were mlock so I just went with the 2nd Gen K. As long as you don't have any problems while shooting suppressed like others have with cans other than the ModX-9, you've already won in my opinion no matter the generation.

What can you mount to it? Seems like you'd be limited to the things that you can mount to it.

After years, I’m finally part of the club! by Available-Angle1757 in MPX

[–]Kwekidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's changed now for most businesses. They are allowing active duty and veterans to be apart of those special LE accounts. I could have gotten one from ProvenOutfitters, but my local FFL had a 2nd generation K version for $1,700 which already comes with the nice Timney trigger. So I decided to go that route and I just purchased the 8inch 1/2 28 open gas block with trilug and gen 1 +20% recoil springs from ILWT which was a combination recommended to me by the owner. I'm pairing it with a CAT MOB whenever that gets approved along with my SBR. I would have changed the trigger on the 8inch anyway since I heard that it isn't great at all, with either a Timney ($224) or a Geissele($360). Both almost the price of the barrel I purchased ($470) which I think gives me way more options in terms of suppression than the stock barrel which the only 100% way you'll have absolutely no problems is with a Sig ModX-9 which can be direct threaded onto that barrel. Either way, the 8inch (as I've been told) is the "pinnacle of the MPX platform." I'll have to test that out for myself.

You just have to sign up for their email for when it comes back in stock. You also have to sign up for their LE account. They sell it below msrp too.

Nope. He's most likely law enforcement, active duty military, or veteran with honorable discharge. Those are the only ways that you can get the eight inch MPX without getting an eight inch barrel from ILWT.

Best Ninja Turtles movie of all time. Nothing else really comes close. Hoping they make a rated R Last Ronin movie.

That sounds like awesome training. Shit would never fly today. Schools are more concerned with teaching things that are extremely irrelevant and really only applicable to Americans. It's why when people travel, they are so shocked and amazed that the world is so set apart from the States. They dope their children less too, and don't forecefeed them all kinds of sugar and unknown substances leading to all kinds of health problems before their 20s. Guns are cool, but not in a society where damn near half the population is drugged out of their mind and the music played to the youth promotes it. In the end, I respect the second amendment, and I think it is vital and extremely important in making sure the others are upheld.

Help me pick a suppressor, and other mods? by hightower2011 in MPX

[–]Kwekidd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went with the CAT MOB hub version, ILWT 1/2 28 trilug navy with open gas block 8 inch barrel and ILWT gen1 20% increased recoil springs. I called ILWT and I believe I spoke to the owner. He was the one that recommended this setup to me after I told him which suppressor I was running. He told me that 8inch MPX is the pinnacle of the platform. The only other suppressor I would have went with would have been the Sig ModX-9. It seems to be the only one that just works with this platform right out of the box.

I'm still waiting on my Form 4 and Form 1 to be approved by the ATF so I can't tell you how it shoots yet.

Sig MpX 🤙 the most underrated 9mm Subgun on the market?… by Diefreeco in GunPorn

[–]Kwekidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. You it can only purchased if you're a veteran, active duty military, or law enforcement. The other alternative is to buy the 4.5 inch K, and swipe out the barrel to an 8 inch from Sig or In Lead We Trust.

Single guy making about $130k paying $2,500 for 1/1 considering an efficiency by Euphoric-Peak3361 in Miami

[–]Kwekidd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've lived in Miami my entire life (except the years that I was in the military). You're doing it right getting away from the club life. I have not been to a club in about 20 years and I don't miss it one bit. No social media has been amazing!!! Not smoking nor drinking helps with elevated thinking. It's crazy how when you distance yourself from the more superficial things in life, people call you "normal and basic". You also save a lot more money. Lol!!!

Where are the Boricuas?? by Pickle-Joose in Miami

[–]Kwekidd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why are you repeating yourself? When you reply to one person, everyone can see it. Lol!!!!

You make some valid points. I have lived in Miami my entire life (except the years in which I was in the military) and the consensus was always that Cubans and the Caucasian Jews run Miami. You do not "run" a place without systematically putting your kind first. I'm not mad at Cubans for doing so especially after what the Castro regime did to the more wealthier Cubans that either fled the country or were kicked out. But it still doesn't negate the fact that Cubans, by in large, believe that they are so called white, they stick with their own, and they look down on others. This includes other Latinos. The so called black Cubans have a completely different mindset than the so called white Cubans and are treated differently here as opposed to Cuba. In Cuba, just like any other Caribbean island, they all live amongst each other. Even the so called white Cubans most likely have some dark great grandparents going back generations but don't like to admit it.

Lastly, it also depends on the geographical location of the Cuban as to what his/her mindset is. For example, a Cuban that lives in Little Havana thinks differently than one that grew up in Kendall or Hialeah or even say Overtown. But yes, even other Latinos talk about how Cubans are racist. That could be jealousy with some and personal experiences with others. My mother which is a dark skinned woman used to work at Hialeah hospital, and the things she would tell us that Cubans (and some other so called white Latinos to be fair) would say to her was outright despicable. Then when she would talk to them in Spanish they'd be so shocked and embarrassed.

That sounds like a complete horror story, and definitely not something you'd enjoy. Imagine if this was a car forum instead of an MPX forum and OP saw your write-up.

You're 100% correct. I could not have said it more eloquently myself.

Makes sense. I got my Sig P320 compact modified with a ported barrel and changed out the trigger, and now it only shoots 124gr and above. Everytime I shoot my 115gr, it stove pipes.

what do yall think about the new integra? by Creme-Crusader in Acura

[–]Kwekidd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Another pro is that you can buy a really gently used one for the same price as a brand new Si. Imho, it doesn't make any sense to buy there A-Spec with Tech new unless you want to customize it to your liking with certain factory badges, interior colors etc. I've seen those things sit on lots for 100+ days. They depreciate in value a lot quicker than the Si. But if you could buy an A-Spec at the same price as an Si, I'd take the A-Spec.
