Product Description

“`html

The Q Mini Fix SBR in .300 Blackout represents the pinnacle of modern precision rifle design in a compact 8″ package. This is not a compromise rifle—it’s a purpose-built suppressed rifle platform that combines AR ergonomics with bolt-action accuracy, magazine-fed efficiency with legendary Q engineering. If you want a rifle that shoots like a match gun, handles like a carbine, and was designed from the ground up for subsonic .300 BLK performance, the Mini Fix is the answer.

About Q LLC

Q was founded by Kevin Brittingham, the visionary engineer behind Advanced Armament Corp and Remington Defense. Based in Claremont, New Hampshire, Q LLC is known for uncompromising engineering, premium materials, and a suppressor-first design philosophy that has earned respect across professional and civilian shooting communities. Every Q product—from the Honey Badger to the Sugar Weasel to The Fix—is built on the principle that suppressors and firearms should be designed together, not bolted together as an afterthought.

Key Specifications

Why the Mini Fix Platform

The Mini Fix is a scaled-down version of Q’s flagship The Fix rifle, engineered for .300 Blackout and other compact cartridges without sacrificing any of the core innovation. Unlike traditional precision rifles, the Mini Fix features full AR-pattern ergonomics—charging handle, safety selector, and controls are instantly familiar to any modern shooter. The proprietary single-stage trigger delivers crisp, predictable breaks. The AICS-pattern magazine compatibility gives you magazine commonality with thousands of other precision rifles while keeping your platform light and simple. At just 5.3 lbs unloaded, this rifle begs to be suppressed; the 8″ barrel is optimized for subsonic loads where .300 BLK truly shines.

What separates this from budget “precision” platforms is engineering heritage and materials. Q doesn’t cut corners. Every Mini Fix comes from a company that developed the Honey Badger for SOCOM requirements and continues to innovate without compromise. The folding aluminum chassis stock provides structural rigidity without adding weight, and the clear anodize finish is durable and professional. This is a rifle designed for shooters who understand that suppressed .300 BLK at 1,000 yards is more practical than a .308 that sounds like a cannon.

NFA Purchase at Western Sport

This firearm is regulated as a Short-Barreled Rifle (SBR) under the National Firearms Act (NFA). Purchase requires ATF Form 4 approval, serial number registration, and a $200 federal tax stamp—except Western Sport is an SOT (Special Occupational Tax) dealer, which means the $0 tax stamp applies to your purchase. You still complete the Form 4 and wait for ATF approval (about two weeks or less), but you avoid the $200 federal fee. This is a significant financial advantage exclusive to SOT dealer customers.

Our staff will guide you through the entire NFA process: completing your Form 4, fingerprinting, obtaining local law enforcement sign-off (if required in your jurisdiction), and submission to the ATF. Once approved, you take possession of a legally registered SBR. No suppressor or other component is included; this is the base rifle only. Contact Western Sport at 817-393-4000 to start your NFA paperwork.
