Pmatte1 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Seeing as the geissele mpx charging handle seemed to be the go to for running on a suppressed mpx for gas mitigation that got discontinued 2 years ago. Does anyone have experience with a MPX charging handle that is equal or even better to the geissele one when running 9mm suppressed. have the stock charging handle right now and the amount of gas coming back around it into your face is less than ideal.

Dirty_J Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Never used the NLA handle suppressed… but it’s by far the best handle mechanically. Interesting the MPX he gassy. Thought the whole point of locking bolt and gas piston was to reduce the gas/fouling coming rearward. Link to comment

The gas system dumps the excess gas inside the handguard which is open back into the upper receiver. Even unsuppressed the stock charging handle lets quite a bit of gas past. The Next Level Armament charging handle and lifter block work well on the MPX. The lifter block does block some of the gas from passing the charging handle. Nolan Link to comment

Can seems to be the make or break with the gas kickback for the MPX. Never really noticed it until then. With can on though it’s obnoxious Link to comment

The consensus was it was the geissele vapor ware or the next level. None are great now that the Geisele is gone Link to comment
DocMedic Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) I run my shortie MPX Suppressed, old school RTV on the charging handle works amazingly, and saves you $100+ Edited December 15, 2022 by DocMedic Link to comment

You just put the silicone on the CH with it set all the way in to try and block some of the open area? Got a pic of how you did yours? Link to comment
