Smith & Wesson M&P15 AXE 16in 30rnd 5.56NATO
The Smith & Wesson M&P15 AXE is a semi-automatic modern sporting rifle built around a suppressor-optimized Gemtech GVAC upper. It combines a 16.1″ 1:8 5R rifled barrel with a mid-length direct impingement gas system intended to reduce gas blowback when running suppressed. The platform pairs familiar M&P ergonomics with premium components such as a Midwest Industries M-LOK free-float handguard and a Magpul CTR adjustable stock. Configured for practical range use, training, and duty applications, it ships with a single 30-round magazine.
