M&P15 AXE SBR 5.56x45 NATO 14.5" BBL (1)30RD Mag Black

This factory-new Smith & Wesson M&P15 AXE SBR represents a purposeful engineering approach to short-barreled rifle design. Chambered in 5.56x45 NATO, it features an 11.5-inch 4150 CMV steel barrel with 5R rifling, 1:8 twist, and Armornite corrosion-resistant finish. The integrated Gemtech GVAC system manages gas blowback during suppressed fire through an expansion chamber that draws gases forward rather than toward the shooter, a principle adapted from military vehicle cannon technology. The anodized aluminum receiver weighs just 6.22 pounds and includes ambidextrous controls throughout. Premium component selection includes a Radian Raptor charging handle, Midwest Industries M-LOK handguard, Magpul CTR stock, and Carpenter 158 bolt. Factory-pinned low-profile gas block and Gemtech ETM flash hider ship ready for suppressor installation. Adjustable folding sights, flat-face trigger, and interchangeable grip backstraps complete the package. Arrives with one 30-round magazine and accepts all standard AR-15 magazines.
