Smith & Wesson M&P15 AXE 300 BLK 8" 30rd Pistol

The Smith & Wesson M&P15 AXE is a braced pistol in 300 Blackout with an 8 inch barrel, built on the M&P15 platform to run suppressed in a compact, maneuverable package. The headline feature is Gemtech's GVAC technology, which cuts the gas blowback in your face when you shoot with a suppressor. GVAC adds an expansion chamber in the gas block of the direct impingement system: gas is siphoned off to cycle the bolt carrier group, while the excess collects in the chamber and vents forward out the muzzle once the bullet leaves.

The stress relieved barrel is Armornite treated for corrosion resistance and longer life, and it is threaded 5/8x24 with a thread protector. The receiver is aluminum with a Picatinny rail, and an M-LOK handguard runs forward. Controls are ambidextrous, including the bolt release, magazine catch and manual thumb safety, and a Radian Raptor charging handle is standard. A Magpul BTR brace finishes the back end, and one 30 round magazine is included.
