It’s a low vis carbine designed to bring the potency and range of the 300 BLK round into the workspace of the 9mm H&K MP5 and MP7. Those sub-machine guns run pretty quiet, but using a can AAC optimized for this platform, the Honey Badger (AACs internal nickname for the nasty little thing), hits 125db, dry. Not bad for a full power cartridge in a gun that has more can than barrel. There is a second version of the Multi-Purpose Weapon with a longer handguard that covers the can. A fine CQB assaulter’s weapon, the longer handguard offers more real estate up front for lights, lasers and the like. The MPW runs an AR style lower and takes all standard AR mags. The buffer system was shortened and the lower modified to accept the custom, adjustable stock. At the moment there are only six of these guns in existence and judging from the appearance of #000006 they are all running hard to prove their place on the battlefield. I'm not really seeing the niche, but kind of want anyways. Nothing too revolutionary, but the stock/upper is neat. Not to mention, it just looks sweet. Rumor has it they may possibly be going into production in 2013. :masturboy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bruh Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 Like the gun just not so .300 so much. How difficult is the ammo to find? What's it cost /1000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty2Hotty Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 $17/20 round box. All in all not bad for a pretty awesome cartridge. I think FPS Russia has it in his newer video, but I couldn't find it earlier on my stupid iPhone. I'm digging the .300 set up, especially the Honey Badger.

Drewhop Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 I think that firing this weapon. Would cause "honey badger dont give a fuck" to play on a loop in my head. Which would in turn drive me crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger1647545502 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Jeez, what is it about the AR platform that causes such rampant chambering choice segmentation? You have one for attackers at under 50 yards, one to 100, one for 300 with gusty winds, one for left-handed red-headed blue-eyed male Eskimos with a slight overbite and a liking for Beatles vinyl...JUST PICK A DAMN ROUND AND STICK WITH IT...

I'm glad they make new rounds for it how else would we of ended up with the 6.8 SPC. Which will be my next AR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honey badger don't give a fuck what you think. Looks awesome, I'm sure if it hits the market and the market accepts it the 300 ammo would be made more avaliable.

Scotty2Hotty Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Jeez, what is it about the AR platform that causes such rampant chambering choice segmentation? It's America's rifle. It's not a damn Kalashnikov. Having 2 main parts to the rifle allows it to be modular. There has always been better rounds than 5.56. Think of it as a muscle car. Same car, different power plant, suspension and transmission options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger1647545502 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 It just amazes me that the market has so much room for so many different chamberings on one platform...everything from .17HMR to .50 BMG. Hell, I've even seen a 7.62x25 Tokarev upper a few years ago, and heard of somebody working on their own build for 8mm Mauser! On the other hand, my last four firearms purchases are chambered for cartridges that were functionally obsolete before Eugene Stoner's parents would let him have a BB gun, so...

Nate1647545505 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Not sure if anyone has seen what some good folks have done with the .300 and some trick powder, but it can be built to rival .338. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
