Q Unveils The BoomBox 8.6BLK

By Darwin N.

When Q began development of the BoomBox, the goal was to create a submachine gun with super and subsonic capabilities like the 300BLK, but with superior terminal ballistics. However, it didn’t take long before the mad scientists behind the Honey Badger realized they were on to something much bigger with the 8.6BLK, giving the new platform potential beyond mere ballistics, and allowing their engineers to do what Q does best, push limits.Q’s Boombox @ TFB: NEW! Q BOOMBOX: The Honey Badger’s Big Brother TFB Preview: Q Boombox 8.6 Rifle – The Honey Badger ReplacementThe Q BoomBox harnesses the sheer mass of a 350gr subsonic projectile into an AR-15 size chassis, delivering three times the energy of 300BLK while remaining quieter than its suppressed predecessor. Exciting, right? Not enough says Kevin Brittingham, Q’s owner and CEO. The New Hampshire company claims the BoomBox is capable of 1 MOA accuracy at 300 meters, an impressive achievement for a gargantuan subsonic round out of a 1:3 twist 12” barrel. Yeah, you read that right.
