Nothing has been able to get around the 15fps limit.
I know there is information here on FM regarding successfuly using Viltrox 2X on Sigma 300-600 f4.
I thought someone did test the Viltrox on the Sigma, but can't remember where / who.
We have the Sigma at work, but not the Viltrox. Still, I'm pretty confident it won't fit. The Sigma's rear element isn't that far from the mount, so even in L mount, it won't work with their own extenders. You'd probably have better luck with the Laowa, which is designed for Canon's EF mount, and, subsequently, has a lot more space between the rear element and the mount in E.
I recall seeing the Sigma 200 and Viltrox TC did not physically fit. Not sure where I saw this. If it could support a TC you would see that info for the L mount.

I said: "Nothing has been able to get around the 15fps limit."
I did not include what I thought was obvious. I should have said: "Nothing has been able to get around the 15fps limit that applies to 3rd party lenses on Sony"
I believe the information in the link you posted is regarding you using the Viltrox 2XTC with Sony GM lenses.
You stated "On A1 it can do 30FPS" in response to "So with Sony GM lenses, does it supports 120 FPS?"
Do I need to edit to: "Nothing has been able to get around the 15fps limit that applies to 3rd party lenses on Sony. Excluding the Viltrox TC, which does not get around the 15fps that applies to a 3rd party lens attached to it, but, as the Viltrox TC is a 3rd party lens, it does get around the Sony 15fps applied to it" ?
If that was your point, I would not argue with it. Usually though, a TC is differentiated from a lens. ie, TC referred to as a secondary lens while the actual lens is referred to as a secondary lens.
It's hard to work out what your point is when you just post a link. A few words helps.

I wasn't arguing with you
You asked 'I know there is information here on FM regarding successfuly using Viltrox 2X on Sigma 300-600 f4.
I thought someone did test the Viltrox on the Sigma, but can't remember where / who.' so I posted the link in response to your question
Voila, nothing more, nothing less
Follow the thread and draw your own conclusion
I don't have Sigma lenses so know nothing about them
Cheers,
