Q LLC | Sugar Weasel | 5.56 NATO | 16″ | SW-556-16IN-RIFLE-BLK

The Q Sugar Weasel is a 16-inch direct-impingement rifle chambered in .223 Rem/5.56 NATO built on an M16-spec receiver set. It features a 1:7 twist barrel, a mid-length adjustable gas block, a 15-inch M-LOK handguard and is finished with a Magpul SL-K carbine stock for a compact, familiar AR platform feel. For an optic under $1000 that pairs well with this rifle, consider a Vortex Strike Eagle 1-6×24 for versatile close-to-mid range performance.
