Overview

The Q Sugar Weasel is a 7-inch .300 AAC Blackout SBR/pistol built on the same skeletonized platform as the Honey Badger SD but without the integral suppressor, giving owners flexibility to run any compatible can. The gas system is tuned for suppressed fire with both subsonic and supersonic loads, and the lightweight skeletonized lower keeps total weight under 4.5 lbs before a suppressor is mounted. It pairs naturally with Q's El Camino or Thunder Chicken suppressors for a purpose-built host setup.

Key Features

  • ✓7" .300 BLK barrel, suppressor-ready
  • ✓Gas system tuned for subsonic and supersonic suppressed cycling
  • ✓Skeletonized lower receiver
  • ✓M-LOK compatible handguard
  • ✓Ambidextrous charging handle
  • ✓Mil-spec trigger group
  • ✓Flash hider threaded 5/8x24 for direct suppressor mount

Pros

  • +Suppressor-agnostic, works with any 5/8x24 .30 caliber can
  • +Under 4.5 lbs unloaded, lightest .300 BLK host in its class
  • +Factory gas tuning eliminates need for adjustable block with most suppressors
  • +Lower price than Honey Badger SD without sacrificing platform quality
  • +Q build quality and QC is consistent across production runs

Cons

  • −Requires separate suppressor purchase for quiet operation
  • −7" barrel limits supersonic .300 BLK to short-range effectiveness
  • −Premium price for a bare host without integral suppressor
