MBX PCC Feedback

[RWV100]

Anybody have any experience with the newer MBX PCCs?  For 15-1650$ they have some appealing options.

 

but don’t know if they actually run

Been running a MBX Pro Series for 1.5 years with ZERO issues.It just keeps on keeping on

Been using them almost from the beginning and I concur, it's been great.  Shoots everything and it is made up of quality parts.  IMO, reliability is the most important issue and it's been 100 percent reliable.

They run, I have 15k rounds on a MBX Pro from last year.

 

Buying a second MBX now for a match only blaster, keeping my first for practices.

 

Other positive... I run ETS mags almost exclusively with no issues.  Great to just throw around the new ETS 40 round mags at sub twenty bucks for a magazine.

A friend of mine got an MBX Pro just a couple of days ago. I met him at the range today to help him break it in before he short strokes  the carbine. We shot about 950 rounds through the thing in the last two days. The loads were 147 grain Zero and 124 grain Montana Gold. I like the MBX a lot. Most importantly, zero malfunctions for the first 950 rounds with no cleaning. Splits in the mid teens consistently  put the bullets about 1.5 inches apart at 12 yards.

Used MBX PRO for two years, shot close to 40.000 rounds through it.
In process of buying second, identical piece to use for matches and have old one for training. Gun runs super reliable.

A little follow-up on my friends MBX Pro. He has tried every conceivable combination of parts trying to get the carbine to short stroke. He has also tried a half a dozen different bullets with various types of powders. Bottom line, no way the carbine will short stroke without jams from hell every few rounds. Long stroke, no problem. Short stroke isn't in the cards with this carbine.

I have it short stroked with hydraulic buffer and works well.

That's strange, mine short strokes without any problems.  Works with their bolt and also Taccom's short stroke bolt, didn't have to change anything regarding ammo either.  So i guess there is a way.

What hydraulic buffer are you using?

[DeChristo]

First, we live in Europe, so most of your US stuff is off limits. Either not allowed for export or simply too complicated/expensive to get over the pond. This is locally made buffer, but works well for the last 20k shots...
