MERP SIG MPX Details

The 3D printed SIG MPX began its journey in early 2020 when respected developer Vinh Nguyen decided to begin development.

A quick note for those eagerly starting up their Ender 3 Printers. The SIG MPX parts kit is one of the most difficult to get your hands on.

If you have an MPX lying around, give this SIG receiver a go. Otherwise, you may need to wait until the parts kits for the MPX become more widely available.

MERP SIG MPX Tech Specs

If you can 3D print a SIG MPX, you should. This 3D printed gun is a gas-
operated rotating bolt and chambered in 9mm.

There is also another route to get your SIG MPX built. 3D gun developer Vinh Nguyen notes, “yes, an EVO3/AK9 and Colt magazine remix is possible,however, I have no standing plans to incorporate them at this time.”

Suggested 3D Print Settings

Cura or Prusa, 3D gun defaults, will work for a great finished product when printing the SIG MPX. Vinh, also provides his suggested printer settings for producing the best quality print.

Slicer Settings

Print the 3D printed Sig MPX using the above orientation. Use Cura’s “Align Face to Build Plate” tool
under “Rotate” to orient the lower receiver with the magwell facing downwards
onto the build plate.

Similarly, print the takedown standoffs with the outer-facing sides pointed
upwards.

These were the printing settings used:

  • Nozzle Size: 0.4mm
  • Layer Height
  • Height: 0.16mm
  • Initial Height: 0. 16 mm
  • Walls: 8
  • Infill Density: 100%
  • Supports: Tree Supports
  • Bed Adhesion: Brim

Filament

eSUN PLA+ or PolyMaker PolyMax PLA+ is recommended for the SIG MPX lower receiver.

If you can, it is recommended to print the takedown standoffs using a nylon blend
of your choice.
