Description
The MCX from E&C is a compact assault rifle based on the modern platform. This versatile rifle combines a robust metal construction with modular customisation possibilities, making it perfect for both CQB and field play.
The first thing you notice about the MCX Rattler is its weight – solid but well-balanced. Its compact dimensions make it manoeuvrable in buildings, while its stable construction ensures consistent performance at a distance.
What makes the MCX Virtus E&C special?
This replica is based on the real MCX platform usedby elite units worldwide. The official Sig Sauer license ensures authentic markings and realistic details. The modern M-LOK rail system and the grey finish give this model a professional military look that will immediately stand out on the field.
Technology & performance
This AEG rifle is powered by a reliable V2 gearbox with MOSFET for contact protection. With a firing rate of 300 FPS and 1.0 joule (measured with 0.20g BBs) the MCX Rattler is perfect for CQB. The adjustable hop-up ensures accurate shots at medium range. The quick-change spring system allows for easy power adjustment without opening the gearbox.
This airsoft version features a true 1:1 scale and detailed workmanship. The handguard is CNC-machined and includes M-LOK slots at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock positions for tactical attachments. The top RIS rail allows mounting of any optics or red dot sight. The gun includes a functional bolt catch, ambidextrous fire selector, and a modern PDW-style adjustable stock with 3 positions. Its construction is designed with easy servicing in mind and is inspired by the real weapon.
At the heart of the gun is a standard V2 QSC gearbox with quick spring change, which allows power tuning without removing the gearbox from the body. The battery is installed in the handguard; since the space is very tight, a suitable battery would be a 7.4V Li-Po Stick or Nunchuck, installed around the outer barrel inside the handguard. The E-shooter Kestrel Basic ETU V2 unit improves trigger response, protects electronics, and allows basic programming.
