Q LLC Sugar Weasel 5.56 NATO 16" Rifle FDE/Gray 30rd

The Q LLC Sugar Weasel delivers precision engineering in a compact 5.56 NATO platform that excels in both close-quarters and extended-range applications. This rifle combines Q's proprietary barrel technology with premium components to create a system that maintains sub-MOA accuracy while remaining lightweight and maneuverable.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard AR-15 platforms, the Sugar Weasel features Q's custom-contoured 16-inch barrel with their signature Cherry Bomb muzzle brake, reducing felt recoil by approximately 30% compared to standard A2 flash hiders. The FDE anodized receiver paired with gray furniture creates a distinctive two-tone appearance while the ambidextrous controls accommodate both left and right-handed shooters without modification. The Magpul SL-K stock provides a compact length of pull while maintaining full adjustability.

Key Features

• 16-inch custom-contoured barrel with 1:7 twist rate for optimal bullet stabilization
• Cherry Bomb muzzle brake reduces recoil and muzzle rise for faster follow-up shots

• Magpul SL-K collapsible stock with multiple position adjustment

The Sugar Weasel maintains consistent accuracy across various ammunition weights, from 55-grain varmint loads to 77-grain match bullets. The barrel's medium contour provides excellent heat dissipation during rapid fire while keeping overall weight manageable for extended carry. The rifle functions reliably in adverse conditions, with the gas system tuned for consistent cycling with both suppressed and unsuppressed configurations.
