Q The Fix 8.6 Blackout 12″ SBR – one-of-a-kind factory camo, bolt-action AR-10 platform
This factory-built short-barreled rifle is a true one-off: Q applied a unique camouflage finish for a promotional giveaway, and no commercial SKU was ever produced. Weighing just over 5 lb, it combines The Fix’s lightweight, bolt-action design with the hard-hitting 8.6 Blackout cartridge and a 12″ stainless barrel. Collectible, limited, and ready to shoot, it blends precision rifle features with familiar AR-style controls.
Condition
Overall Condition: Excellent – shows only faint signs of prior handling.
Bore Condition: Excellent – clean, mirror finish with sharp lands and grooves.
Specific Condition Notes: Mild carbon buildup is visible on the Cherry Bomb muzzle brake, but the rifle remains in great overall shape.
What’s Included
- Q The Fix 8.6 Blackout 12″ short-barreled rifle with factory custom camo finish
- 1 × 10-round Magpul PMAG 10 LR/SR Gen M3 magazine
The Fix’s one-piece 7075-T6 aluminum receiver integrates a full-length 1913 rail and a tool-less barrel interface, letting users swap calibers without a vise or torque wrench. The bolt’s 45° short-throw handle cycles quickly, and an AR-style mag release and safety keep controls familiar.
The 12″ stainless barrel features an aggressive 1:3 twist to stabilize heavy subsonic 8.6 Blackout bullets. It is threaded M18×1.5 and wears Q’s Cherry Bomb muzzle brake, which doubles as a taper-mount interface for Q suppressors.
The skeletonized aluminum stock folds to the left, cutting overall length to about 22″ for transport. It offers multi-screw length-of-pull adjustment, a vertically adjustable cheekpiece, and a rubber butt-pad. Combined with the 11″ Q-SERT handguard, the rifle balances light weight with solid ergonomics.
Every exterior surface—receiver, handguard, and stock—carries Q’s custom factory camouflage overlay, making this rifle instantly recognizable and impossible to duplicate. As a factory giveaway piece, it is rare, collectible, and backed by Q’s reputation for innovative design.
