When the US Special Operations Command put out a request for a Personal Defense Weapon (PDW) to replace the MP5, Sig Sauer responded with the MCX Rattler; an absolutely groundbreaking short barrel rifle. The Rattler is based on Sig Sauer's flagship MCX modular rifle, featuring its short-stroke recoil gas piston operating system. What separates Sig Sauer's MCX platform from other AR/M4 style rifles is the recoil system that totally eliminates the need for a buffertube, making the MCX Rattler more compact than any AR/M4 rifle ever produced. The MCX Rattler PSB (pistol version) has a length of 19.3 inches when arm brace is collapsed and the MCX Rattler SBR has a length of only 16 inches when the stock is folded; both versions of the MCX weigh under 6 lbs. The rifle is currently chambered in .300 BLK or 5.56 features a 5.5 inch suppressor ready barrel and a aluminum free-floated handgaurd with M-LOK attachment points.

About Sig Sauer
From humble beginnings as a wagon to factory to one of the world’s largest firearms, optics, and ammunition manufacturers; the history of Sig Sauer is rich in innovation and achievement. After winning a contract from the Swiss government in 1864 for their Prelz-Burnand muzzleloading rifles, the Swiss Wagon Factory change its name to Schweizerische Industrie-Gesellschaf, the Swiss Industrial Company, better known as SIG. In 1949 SIG developed the SIG P49, the predecessor to the P210 and continued developing small arms for the Swiss military and police.
Since then the company has changed its name, acquired other firearm manufacturers, and crossed the Atlantic—setting up headquarters in New Hampshire. However, what hasn’t changed is the innovative spirit that has driven SIG SAUER to develop firearms like the SIG516 rifle, MCX rifle, P320 pistol, and P226 pistol. With clients like the Texas Rangers, United States Secret Service, Navy Seals, and dozens of local law enforcement agencies nationwide; SIG SAUER is there When It Counts.
