POTD: Suppressed 300 BLK “Honey Badger” With Aimpoint Duty RDS MR
The 300 Blackout cartridge was born for suppression, and it would be a shame not to. When I took these images, I didn’t realize how big the ASE Utra suppressor was in comparison to the rest of the rifle and the handguard. But it does do its job with five stars, quietly and effectively. Originally crafted by AAC, the 300 Blackout Honey Badger is now somewhat forgotten. But at the time, I just had to make a clone of this legend. This one runs a 7.5” Lothar Walther barrel. I was actually advised by ACC to go up in length.
The sight is the new Aimpoint Duty RDS MR (Multi Reticle). The lower is from MEGA Arms, with a Geissele trigger. The upper is a CTR-02 from JP Rifles, perhaps a bit too posh for this build, but it does look great.
Noveske has a small part in this build as well.
Two Ase Utra suppressors, to show the difference between the QD/Flash-hiders 556 and 308. The Coyote is for 556, and no good for 300 Blackouts.
