Overview

Built for compact handling, this pistol-configured AM-15 platform is suited to hunters and shooters who want a shorter setup for easier maneuverability and storage. It pairs 7075-T6 aluminum construction with Gen II Billet lower receivers that add an integrated trigger guard, finger rest, and improved magazine release protector. A free-float Hive Gen 3 cut-away handguard with full-length M-LOK slots provides a modern accessory-ready layout, while the included SBA3 brace and A2 pistol grip complete the setup. Chambered in .300 AAC Blackout with a 10.5-inch barrel and one 30-round magazine included, it offers a purpose-built package for compact use.
