The Q Sugar Weasel 5.56 AR Pistol, designated SW-556-13IN, is a compact, high-performance platform engineered for uncompromising utility. This 13-inch pistol variant integrates Q’s precision manufacturing with a stabilizing brace, providing a robust and maneuverable firearm capable of effective 5.56mm NATO ballistic delivery in close quarters or demanding field conditions.
Key Features
Precision Barreling
The 13-inch 416R stainless steel barrel, featuring a 1:7 twist rate, is specifically dimensioned for optimal 5.56mm NATO projectile stabilization and consistent accuracy. The tapered barrel profile and threaded muzzle (1/2×28) facilitate suppressor integration without modification, ensuring consistent performance across various configurations.
Optimized Gas System
An adjustable gas block, combined with a carbine-length gas system, allows for precise regulation of operating pressures. This feature is critical for tuning the system to specific ammunition types and maintaining reliable cycling, particularly when suppressed, thereby mitigating adverse system pressures.
Robust Construction & Ergonomics
Constructed with precision-machined billet receivers and a free-floating 12-inch M-LOK handguard, the Sugar Weasel maintains structural rigidity while offering extensive accessory mounting options. The included stabilizing brace enhances point-of-aim stability and user interface, optimizing control for varied operational postures.
Enhanced Trigger System
Equipped with Q’s two-stage trigger, this system provides a clean break and minimal overtravel, directly contributing to shooter precision and shot placement consistency. This critical interface component is factory-tuned for consistent performance.
