Description
The Honey Badger is Q's flagship platform: a compact, lightweight 300 Blackout firearm originally built for a top-tier military program to replace the MP5-SD. It was designed from the start around running a suppressor, and it redefined what a modern personal defense weapon could be.
NO SUPPRESSOR IS INCLUDED. The muzzle is threaded and the platform is built for suppressed use, but a silencer is an NFA item bought separately: it transfers on its own ATF Form 4 with fingerprints, a photograph and an ATF background check, and you cannot take possession until that is approved. Since 1 January 2026 the transfer tax on suppressors is $0, though the registration and approval requirements are unchanged.
The barrel is 7" stainless with a 1:5 twist. That is a very fast twist, and it is deliberate – it stabilizes the long, heavy subsonic bullets that 300 Blackout is loaded with for suppressed use, so the rifle shoots both subsonic and supersonic ammunition rather than favoring one.
It ships with Q's cassette-style two-stage AR trigger, which is drop safe and has a short reset, and which fits any standard AR/M4 lower. The bolt carrier group is machined as two pieces rather than one: easier to strip and service, and it lets Q hold tighter tolerances in manufacture. The M-LOK handguard uses Q's turnbuckle attachment method so it comes off and back on for service without special tooling. The finish is a Type III Class A clear hard-coat anodize – undyed, which is why it tolerates suppressor heat.
This is configured as a pistol and it stays a pistol. Fitting an actual shoulder stock to a firearm with a 7" barrel makes it a short-barreled rifle – an NFA item that must be registered and approved BEFORE it is assembled, not after. We stock the Honey Badger as an SBR as well if that is what you are after. If you are unsure what you have, ask us first.
This is a serialized firearm. It ships to a licensed dealer near you rather than to your door, and you complete the transfer there with a Form 4473 and a background check. State and local rules govern what can be shipped where, so check yours before ordering – and if you are unsure, ask us first.
