The Mk57 Banshee lower is purpose-built for 5.7x28mm and accepts FN Five-seveN-pattern pistol magazines. This configuration offers a compact footprint with a stated capacity of 20+1, and a semi-automatic-only SAFE/SEMI selector.
The 5.25-inch barrel is threaded and includes a thread protector, making it easy to configure with compatible muzzle devices. A free-float aluminum handguard with M-LOK-style slots provides modern mounting flexibility while keeping weight forward under control.
A full-length 1913 Picatinny rail bridges the upper receiver and handguard, offering uninterrupted space for sights or accessories. The pistol is delivered without sights installed.
Controls and furniture are practical and well-appointed, including an ambidextrous extended charging handle, a manual safety selector, a loop-type sling end plate for snap-hook/HK-style attachment, a Magpul MOE pistol grip, and an adjustable stabilizing brace with a hook-and-loop strap.
The upper and lower receivers are aluminum with a matte gray finish, and the pistol is made in the United States. The radial delayed blowback action is tuned for the 5.7x28 cartridge, balancing reliability with a compact AR-15-pattern platform.
