    Things I liked:

    I LOVE IT! Some people say it's not a self defense gun. WELL They lied. I tested 2 layers of denim, on top of 2 t-shirts and put a canaloupe behind all layers. Lead free light alloy pellets went thru all layers & 80% of the canaloupe.

    What others should know:

    I tried 11gr, and 9 gr lead free h&n field green pellets. They penetrate MUCH Better Than Lead. Lead pellets bend and flatten but alloy pellet keep going

    Things I liked:

    I like everything about this air rifle. Ran 4 magazines through it before thinking about recharging the tank.

    Things I would have changed:

    I would add sling swivels

  • 5.0 5.0

    3.0 3.0

    Things I liked:

    Semi automatic nature is extremely satisfying in a pcp loadout. You get a modicum of power, but way more than anything you'd get in c02. But nothing like higher caliber pcp rifles.

    Things I would have changed:

    Accuracy isn't great, I'd say that is probably due to the trigger cycling the magazine.

    Things I liked:

    Made in Japan, semi-auto., PCP consistent power on 60rnds

    Things I would have changed:

    Larger bottle either .33l or .45l, increase regulator pressure to at least 1500psi. Add extra belts or Magazine. a rail on under side of barrel

    What others should know:

    Put .45l bottle and 1500psi regulator on mine, increased impact and range, might move up to 1800psi regulator in future

    5.0 5.0

    Things I liked:

    Looks and feels like a sig. coming from co2 .177 sig pellets and bb rifles, this thing is pretty amazing. It is consistent shot after shot, for at least 3 mags straight. Its accuracy with provided iron sights is pretty spot on at 200 meters. And still hits the target at 400m.

    Things I would have changed:

    Picatiny rails on the bottom so i can attach grips or bipods would be a hell of an idea no.

    What others should know:

    Get a good pump haha its a workout.

    Things I liked:

    So looked great everything felt right, but it leaked air immediately so I am waiting to see if I get an RMA. I will update my review when I get a replacement.

    Things I would have changed:

    Hold air lol

    What others should know:

    This is very much not a light rifle it has great balance but its heavier than most air rifles in similar power and caliber.

    Things I liked:

    Nice gun. easy to load fun to shoot

    Things I would have changed:

    The tank

    What others should know:

    I cracked the butt pad that goes on the end of the air bottle, I must have tightened it a little too much. Contacted Sig Sauer directly and they do not sell parts for this gun yet. I am to send the whole gun to them but I hunt skunk nearly every day and do not want to send it back. Sure wish I could just get the butt pad. I would love to see a gun like this that had the tank in the fore stock under the barrel, would look better also, the air bottle makes this gun look like a toy.

    Things I liked:

    To be honest... my experience was bad... i recieve a bad product. Because i cant fill the tank with air (it seems i recieve a bad one) and also the tank/stock is loose and cannot be tightened.. I try but I can't adjust it.

    Things I would have changed:

    the gun is beautifull.. and very nice... maybe im just a guy with bad luck and all the other customers had a great experience buying it.

    What others should know:

    maybe you must wait until the internet get filled with more info about this gun.. also there is no place to buy spare parts o get some tech help.

    Things I liked:

    Things I would have changed:

    I would change first the 16 FPE with 18gr, and a different presice barrel to make a useful for target competition

    What others should know:

    This pcp is good for plinking in 10-20 yard. It is very delicate toy

  • 4.0 4.0

    3.0 3.0

    4.0 4.0

    Things I liked:

    I have had the gun for a couple weeks and have fired a couple hundred rounds through it. The quality of this gun is as one would expect from Sig Sauer and it is very realistic. A fun shooting gun and with no problem plinking cans at 40 yds with open sights. The magazine loads easy and there is an audible difference when fired on empty chamber.

    Things I would have changed:

    Ship with extra magazine and or belts

  • 3.0 3.0

    3.0 3.0

    Things I liked:

    It's a good $300 PCP. It cycles well semi-auto. The belt fed system is new to me and it seems solid... we'll see how it holds up.

    Things I would have changed:

    I'd like to not have to count my shots. It does not have a stop built in when the rounds run out. I would like to get power out of this gun... Maybe a 1200/1300 PSI regulator? And a slightly larger tank... get me 60 solid shots at 900 FPS. Throw in an M-Loc weaver/piccatiny rail for a bi-pod, loose in the box would be fine.

    What others should know:

    My tank was loose once I installed it... air tight but not solidly founded in the receiver. The threaded bushing in the tail section was not solid... it was more like a floating design. I did not like the feeling and used some LOC-TITE to remedy it. The owners manual is rudimentary... in a hundred different languages but rudimentary. It does not mention how to cock the gun... more or less self-evident but still no instruction on the subject... nor did it mention the lack of a stop when you run out of rounds. DO NOT over-tighten the butt pad screw... I used my T handle allen key and cracked the plastic. In defense of SIG and the owners manual it does mention to use the tool they supply... it doesn't have the grip to provide the torque it took to crack it. My bad...

    Things I liked:

    The rifle is fun to shoot. Decent accuracy although I haven't done bench trails - just off the shoulder shooting. Very easy to load. No jams unlike the Hatsun Sortie. The tool to seat pellets is nicely secure in the grip.

    Things I would have changed:

    More power. Definitely more power. Include second ammo belt or large capacity magazine and belt. Manual could be better.

    What others should know:

    Important: In order to seat and seal the air tank it was necessary to apply air gun safe silicone grease to the threads. Without grease the tank stopped just short & appeared to seat. Hand pressure would NOT seat it. Only the application of light coat of grease enable the tank to make the final turn.

    You can almost get 200 shots on one fill. My manual says use the tool to seat the pelletd

    Things I would have changed:

    The magazine only lets you use light pelletd.

    Things I liked:

    This is an update to my 2 previous posts. After consult with Sig, found it is important to seat the pellets correctly. They must be pushed all the way into the belt until they appear to click. This is not emphasized in the user manual. This solved the trigger pull & keyholing problems I was having. Trigger pull is on high side at 6 lbs, but consistent & smooth after the belt advances. All is now well with the air rifles operation.

    Things I would have changed:

    Reduce the trigger pull. Make the butt plate adjustable vertically & for length of pull.

    What others should know:

    Using a 1X, 3 MOA Red dot sight am able to consistently hit 3 in bullseyes at 25 yds. Very satisfying. .

    Things I liked:

    Its a super fun plinker. Im able to consistently hit a fry pan with a red dot at 150 yards.

    Things I would have changed:

    Add some sort of lubrication in the magazine. As soon as any dust or debris gets in the Mag you are in for a whole mess of jams and frustration. Also, hunting is basically not a thing with this. Ive shot numerous pigeons close range but its definitely not ideal and could use a little bit more power.

    What others should know:

    Buy as many extra mags as you can afford and get a scuba tank, a hand pump is not going to cut it here

    Things I liked:

    This is a follow-up review after having used the MCX PCP at the range. Filled the air cylinder to 2500 psi from a scuba pony bottle. Used Grossman Premier 22 cal 14.3 gr domed pellets and sighted in a Nikon 3 MOA red dot 1X scope at 25 yards. The magazine and 30 round pellet belt operated flawlessly. Given my state of residence, I had to limit the magazine capacity to 10 rounds. I did this by filing down a few of the advancing nubs on the belt after the 10th pellet so the belt would no longer advance beyond that position. You have to either count your shots or watch for a blank fire to know when you are out of pellets. Was able to successfully sight-in a 3 In bullseye target at 25 yards. I am satisfied the tank's air fill was easily good for 50-60 rounds. The suppressor on the muzzle is strictly for show. The rifle is not loud but it's not quiet either.

    Things I would have changed:

    There is a charging handle not discussed in the brief user manual nor instructions regarding cleaning the receiver or barrel. The 2 stage trigger really needs more work. The first stage advances the pellet belt - this is OK. The second stage is where it fails. Mine consistently required 10 lbs of force to fire the first pellet. Had to forcefully use the middle of my index finger to get the shot off. Subsequent pellets still required high force to fire and the feel was inconsistent. I was informed that the trigger force should be ~ 6 lbs. I suspect there is a problem with my rifle and will be contacting Sig. The other problem encountered is the pellets were keyholing the target. I am wondering if the barrel has rifling (nothing in the specs) or perhaps another pellet type should be used. Another question for Sig. I will update this review after I communicate with Sig.
