Description
The GBBR MCX US SOCOM RSAR APFG replica, a compact gas blowback platform built to USSOCOM specifications
The GBBR MCX US SOCOM RSAR APFG replica is a gas-blowback assault rifle by APFG, a subsidiary of VFC (Vega Force Company), based on the SIG MCX platform in its RSAR (Reduced Signature Assault Rifle) version, as specified by USSOCOM. It is aimed at players seeking a credible and functional alternative to classic M4/AR-15 platforms: a compact size, distinctive mechanics, and a level of finish designed for mil-sim or competition use.
A design focused on material quality
The upper and handguard are made of CNC-machined aluminum, ensuring precise geometry and significant structural rigidity under intensive use. The three-pronged flash hider and retractable stock are made of steel, as are the trigger group components, giving the entire unit durability suited for field use. The lower receiver is made of an alloy. Weighing 2,740 g and with a variable length ranging from 545 to 640 mm, this replica features a compact design directly inspired by the Rattler LT, with its 7.75-inch external barrel (138 mm precision internal barrel).
A gas blowback system designed for realism
The gas blowback system drives a moving bolt whose firing behavior differs significantly from that of a standard M4: the recoil is crisp, sharp, and fast, a hallmark of the MCX platform. Available firing modes include semi-auto, full-auto, and safety. Hop-up adjustment is performed from the front of the replica via the dummy gas block system, without requiring partial disassembly of the body, which saves time when you're off the field.
The outer barrel is threaded 14 mm CCW (counterclockwise), making it directly compatible with a suppressor or tracer with the same threading. The included magazine is a 30-bbs V3 metal model (gray), featuring a reinforced mag-release notch and an empty-bb indicator that can be enabled or disabled according to the player's preference. This replica is compatible with VFC V2 and V3 gas magazines in Stanag, HK-curve, and V-Mag formats. Magazines from other manufacturers are not compatible.
Ambidextrous controls and true modularity
All primary controls are ambidextrous: the magazine release, fire selector, bolt stop, and cocking lever are accessible from both sides, making the rifle comfortable for shooters of all styles. The retractable stock is length-adjustable, mounted on a vertical Picatinny rail, and removable, allowing it to be replaced with any stock equipped with a compatible mount.
The handguard features a full M-LOK interface as well as a Picatinny rail, while a long Picatinny rail runs the entire length of the upper to accommodate optics and accessories. Three QD sling attachment points are distributed throughout the replica: at the base of the handguard, at the rear of the receiver, and on the stock, offering mounting versatility suitable for both mil-sim and competition setups.
