Product Overview
The CMMG Banshee MK47 is a purpose-built AR pistol designed to address the specific challenges of running 7.62x39mm in an AR platform. As a mid-size AR platform, the Mk47 integrates robust components, including CMMG’s PowerBolt Technology, while maintaining a balanced profile. This system is engineered to deliver reliable performance for the 7.62x39mm cartridge, utilizing AK47-pattern magazines to mitigate the feeding issues often encountered with standard AR magazines adapted for this caliber. The BANSHEE series is developed as a dependable personal defense weapon, offering a compact and effective solution for demanding applications.
Key Features
Optimized 7.62x39mm Integration
The Mk47 platform is specifically designed to overcome the inherent feeding challenges of 7.62x39mm in AR systems by directly accepting AK47-pattern magazines. This critical design choice, combined with CMMG’s PowerBolt Technology, ensures consistent and reliable cartridge feeding and extraction. The architecture is engineered to handle the distinct ballistic characteristics of the 7.62x39mm cartridge without compromising cyclic reliability, providing a dedicated and robust solution.
Robust Construction and Ergonomics
The Banshee MK47 features receivers precision-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, providing a lightweight yet highly durable foundation. This material selection contributes to the weapon’s structural integrity, ensuring long-term operational reliability under rigorous use. The integration of beefier internal components, characteristic of the Mk47 platform, is achieved without introducing unnecessary weight or bulk. Ergonomics are enhanced by the inclusion of the CMMG Zeroed Pistol Grip, designed for improved user interface and precise weapon manipulation.
Versatile Accessory Integration
Equipped with an EML 6-inch M-LOK handguard, the Banshee MK47 offers extensive capability for accessory attachment. The handguard features full-length M-LOK slots on the sides and bottom, alongside M-LOK sections integrated between the top Picatinny rail segments. This comprehensive M-LOK interface provides diverse mounting options for lights, lasers, foregrips, and other mission-essential equipment, allowing users to configure the platform to specific operational requirements. The inclusion of CMMG ZEROED parts and accessories ensures quality and compatibility across the system.
