Maxim Defense MXM47802 PDX 5.56x45mm NATO 5.50" 20+1 Arid Brown Maxim SCW Stock Arid Brown Polymer Grip$2,245.50
Availability: In Stock
The Maxim Defense PDX in .300 Blackout with 5.5" barrel and Arid SCW is a purpose-built short-stroke rifle purpose-engineered for close-quarters work where compact footprint and fast handling matter. Born from professional-grade requirements, this is the kind of gun that earns respect through design choices, not marketing claims. At just 18.75 inches overall length, it's built around Maxim's patent-pending SCW (Short Compact Weapon) system—a modular platform that integrates the bolt carrier group, keeps the stock length down to 4 inches, and lets you swap buffer weights to fine-tune performance for your ammunition and mission profile.
The .300 Blackout round finds its sweet spot in a short barrel, and this PDX setup pairs that caliber with a 5.5" tube threaded 5/8x24 (ready for a suppressor, which is where this gun really sings). Recoil management comes from Maxim's HATEBRAKE muzzle device—a booster that doesn't just tame the gun, it redirects gas and concussion downrange rather than back at you, and keeps the flash signature clean. Built from a mix of 6Al-4V titanium, 17-4 stainless, and 7075/6061 aluminum with hard anodizing, this rifle is light at 5 lbs 11 oz without sacrificing durability.
This isn't a range toy or a mall-ninja aesthetic play. The PDX earned "Best of SHOT 2019" from RECOIL Magazine because it solves real problems for people who understand what a weapon is supposed to do in its intended role. If you're looking for a suppressed, short .300 Blackout carbine that doesn't compromise on build quality or ergonomics, the Maxim Defense PDX checks every box.
