Q, The Fix, 8.6 BLK, 8in., Pistol, With Brace (FIX-86-8IN-PISTOL)

Q, LLC’s FIX 8.6 BLK Pistol is an outstanding candidate for conversion into a Short Barreled Rifle (SBR), offering all of the same advantages of the FIX rifle minus the stock.

This high performance firearm is much more than just a modified Rem 700.

The FIX is the world’s first “utility rifle” (with the installation of a stock) and excels at any long range application from hunting, to PRS shooting, to tactical purposes.

Many aspects of the FIX are reminiscent of AR platforms, notably in the ambidextrous selector switch and magazine release which are located in the same places as on an AR.

The grip is AR-style as well giving the FIX familiar ergonomics, and the magazine is SR-25 compatible – the same used by the AR10. Together, these similarities create a better shooting experience for someone already acquainted with an AR pattern rifle.

The FIX is built around a lightweight, monolithic, one-piece aluminum receiver which is exceptionally rigid. Unlike chassis rifles where the bolt locks into a heavy steel receiver, the FIX’s bolt locks into the barrel, another aspect the FIX shares with AR platforms. This provides barrel interchangeability at the user level, allowing the operator to exchange calibers and barrel lengths without the need for a gunsmith.

The modular nature of the FIX also allows components such as the stock, bolt, or handguard to be interchanged as well. To make exchanging parts or cleaning the weapon effortless, the FIX exclusively uses T-25 screws, so only one wrench is necessary to disassemble the weapon.

Other features of the FIX include an innovative bolt design. The FIX’s bolt was engineered for speed, unlocking with a 45° bolt throw which is about half the distance of a Rem 700 bolt.

This makes clearing the weapon, cycling the bolt, and follow up shots lightning fast, and ensures the bolt handle clears the ocular bell of virtually any riflescope. In addition, the FIX is outfitted with an exceptionally crisp, two-stage trigger for supreme accuracy.
