Seekins SP10 vs SPX

[bleaman225]

I’ve been looking at getting a SP10M, stopped at a local shop that usually carries decent stuff and inquired about ordering one.

They said they just got one in in 7.62 and asked if I wanted to see it. “Sure, why not.”

They brought out a SPX, which I hadn’t heard of previously (but I haven’t followed Seekins). They had it priced in line with SP10M but I couldn’t initially find mention of that model online. I eventually found something about it being a previous model so I asked them. They responded they just got it from their distributor this week and it’s brand new.

I was half considering buying it just to have but I can’t find any real good info.
Does anyone have any knowledge on SPX vs SP10?

pretty sure the spx was discounted like 8-10 years ago. it might be unfired but it sure isn't 'new'

for the same money or even close I would never buy that over an sp-10

SPX and SP10 are nearly identical except for the barrel. The SPX had a smaller profile and .750 gas block. The SP10 should have a .875 gas block. I think early SP10s may have been .750 also but I don't know that for sure.

I've got one of each and that's the only difference I could find.

I definitely wouldn't be paying sp10m money for an spx.

Do SP10 lowers say SP10?
I’m genuinely curious at all this now
