It seems hard to believe that the SIG Sauer Cross could get much smaller or lighter, but it has. The new Cross TRAX model is even more streamlined than the original. Let’s see how they accomplished that feat.
Sig Sauer @ TFB:
- Danish National Police Select SIG Sauer P320 To Replace HK USP
- NEW Tango-DMR Scopes From SIG Sauer
- 20% Less Recoil – The New SIG Sauer P320-XTEN COMP
- California Welcomes the New CA Compliant SIG Sauer P365
- SIG Sauer P320 XTEN Endure: All-Weather, Limited-Production Firepower
The two most obvious differences are the stock and handguard. In lieu of the original stock with cheek height and length of pull adjustments, the TRAX (no relation to the Utah Transit Authority TRAX light rail network) features the folding “leg bone” minimalist stock, a descendant of the original MCX folding stock. The handguard is similar to the original but trimmed back to 11.5 inches.
Other changes are more minor, like the Rattler pistol grip and smaller bolt handle. But all of those features together do cut the weight down even more. The standard Cross in .308 with a 16-inch barrel weighs 6.5 pounds. The Cross TRAX (only available as a 16-inch .308) weighs only 6.1 pounds. Some online retailers list it as coming soon with a street price of $1399.99, so keep an eye out as it will probably be showing up soon.
From the manufacturer:
