SIG SAUER Introduces the MCX Rattler Canebrake

January 17th, 2019

Newington, N.H. (January 17, 2019) – SIG SAUER Inc. is pleased to Introduce the MCX Rattler Canebrake, the newest addition to the MCX family.

“The MCX Rattler Canebrake was created for those that desire the MCX as a suppressed system and eliminates the need to purchase additional components to do so,” said Tom Taylor, Chief Marketing Officer and Executive Vice President, Commercial Sales, SIG SAUER, Inc. “The Rattler Canebrake comes with a factory installed inert training device, making it operable right out of the box while NFA paperwork and waiting periods are completed, and then is easily convertible to run suppressed.”

The MCX Rattler Canebrake comes as a suppressor ready platform with an SD handguard and inert training device that mimics the size and weight of the SIGSRD762 suppressor and assures all muzzle flash is past the shooter’s hand when reaching out on the handguard during operation without a functional suppressor installed.   With the MCX Rattler Canebrake there’s no need for the purchase of a shorter barrel kit and SD Handguard to have a suppressed MCX system, simply unthread the inert training device, install your suppressor, and select the appropriate gas setting for your ammunition. Additional features of the MCX Rattler Canebrake include a 2-stage flat-blade match trigger, Cerakote E190 finished upper and lower, a folding coyote-tan PCB, and comes with one 30-round polymer 300BLK Magpul™ magazine.

The MCX Rattler Canebrake and the entire MCX series will be on display at the SIG SAUER Exhibition Booth at SHOT Show 2019 (#12240) in Las Vegas, Nevada, January 22, 2019 through January 25, 2019.

Today, Magpul will announce their Magpul® DAKA™ Bifold Wallet and Magpul™ Radius and Explorer XL Eyewear.

Magpul® DAKA Bifold Wallet

The Magpul DAKA Bifold Wallet was designed with the same slim styling of our original wallets, but with extra room added for those times when you need a little more insurance that you can buy what you want and go where you want to go. It’ll easily hold your cash, IDs and credit cards without adding significant bulk to your everyday carry. Its slim profile eliminates printing while still providing room for your necessities.

Constructed of injected-molded TR90NZZ, the Explorer XL provides maximum impact resistance, flexibility, and comfort, and has been tested to MIL PRF 32432 ballistic standards. Like its predecessor the Explorer, the 6-base frames provide all-around protection with a casual look and feel.
