What makes the MCX Virtus | Grey | Sig Sauer | E&C special?

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.
