The Honey Badger Rifle configuration is produced in limited runs, making this 16-inch model a desirable example within the series. The upper is marked "HONEY BADGER" and "300BLK," while the lower carries "PORTSMOUTH NH" with the stylized Q logo and "LIVE FREE OR DIE" motif. It is an AR-15 pattern rifle built in the United States, finished in a distinctive two-tone light tan/gray.
The 16-inch .300 BLK barrel uses a fast 1:6 twist and a tapered-shoulder 5/8x24 thread. It ships with Q’s Cherry Bomb brake installed and an adjustable low-profile gas block to fine-tune performance. This setup is purpose-built for the .300 Blackout cartridge and its broad load spectrum.
Receivers are machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, and the free-float handguard is 6061-T6 aluminum with M-LOK slots and a full-length top Picatinny rail. Furniture includes a Magpul polymer pistol grip and a compact, 2-position collapsible PDW-style stock with a gray cheek piece, a single guide-rod, and a large bronze/copper-colored rear QD sling socket. Overall length is approximately 29–34 inches with a length of pull around 7.5 inches, and the rifle weighs about 5 lb 7 oz.
The rifle uses a semi-automatic direct-impingement system. Controls include a 70-degree safety selector, an ambidextrous charging handle with enlarged latches, and a flat-faced two-stage trigger. It is configured for a 30+1 capacity and ships without sights.
